Do you find this cel offensive?

I'm not offended by it. I was a little surprised when I opened the link.
Collect what you like. Live how you want to.
Heck, most of the men in anime look like women anyway.

I used to have so many friends who wrote yaoi for our doujinshi when I was in a high school so for me it is not offensive at all (and also I do feel that this is toooooooo mild for yaoi

)

I'm not a fan of Yaoi as in watching it or reading it but, it doesn't affect or offend me that there's homosexuality around. Each to their own.

Thank you to everyone, I had hoped that this would prove my point and it has. This cel is my number one hit count on Rubberslug. It is over triple the hit count of any of my X cels.

I just wanted everyone to see what the feelings of the majority of the people here were about "non mainstream " art or ideas. We are almost all pretty open minded and live and let live. I hope that everyone will remember this when someone says something a little off color. It is almost always a misunderstanding and can easily be talked out.

Lets try to not get any more threads locked

Well I've said it before, I don't mind what goes on behind closed doors but I won't have it shoved down my throat.

Do I think it's offensive? Yes and No.
Hmm, I just spent 15 mins writing out an honest statement but scrapped it because it would probably get frowned upon. But I can't just sit here and say it's acceptable like [almost] everyone else.

I think that this sort of behaviour is 'wrong' and I don't like to see it.

Having said that I do collect Yaoi doujinshi but only because it's a dedicated fan's effort and extension of the series I know and love.

Naah not really, as somebody said in the end it is just art, but I really don't agree if they are brothers or whatever...that's just plain wrong...

Nope, I don't mind it at all. I'll go with Baakay... The world could use a little more love.

Yes, to be honest.

They are not brothers, it is two brothers competing over the same guy

Not my favorite thing to look at, but it's not like I vomit on sight or anything. XD
And hey, Topic made it clear it could offend, so anyone who is easily offended and clicked it.. guess what? You made the choice. ^_~ no whining!
