one dude’s theory
So I was wandering around YouTube one day, and ran into a non-fudanshi, straight, white guy’s theory about why we women love yaoi.
And it cracked me up.
Mind you, this isn’t an anti-yaoi rant. It’s exactly what the title says, and even though I was a bit worried at the beginning of his comments, Onision Speaks makes some interesting points (and has an amusing pronunciation of yaoi). More than anything, it’s pretty funny seeing an apparently non-fujoshi/fudanshi making them.
Enjoy!
I was really leery the first time i saw this video as well, I wasn’t sure which way he was going to go with it. I was pleasantly surprised. “It gives them two times what they want.” That is something I would not have thought of until he said it.

And when you read the menage stories (okay, most of those are in M/M novels, but it’s mostly the same audience), you get a three-fer. Mmmmmmmm. XD

… And sometimes you’re a lesbian and there’s no theory as to why you like yaoi, lol.

And, from what I understand, quite a few yaoi mangaka are lesbian. An equally awesome mystery. 🙂
