Yuri And Shoujo-Ai
Pikari:
I voted yes. I used to like yuri (the tasteful ones, at least. <_< ) before I got used to yaoi and really fell in love with that. I think I prefer shoujo-ai more now.. it's always nice seeing two girls in a loving relationship, and one of my favorite couples, Seiya/Usagi is shoujo-ai, so I've written a few fanfiction.
But my obsessive love now is yaoi. ^__^;
babypigggy:
whats the difference between the two? O_O im lost.
*anyways, i like straight couples. (:*
Jeannette:
Gasp! Seiya/Usagi is heresy! Usagi/Mamoru is OTP! Such blasphemy shall not be tolerated! It is unforgiveable. (/jk) Actually, in all seriousness, I've never really seen Usagi as being in a lesbian relationship. It just doesn't seem to fit her character at all, but to each his/her own.
Personally, I prefer Makoto/Ami and Rei/Minako, and I adore Haruka/Michiru. And I love Utena/Anthy from Revolutionary Girl Utena. But really, since I'm a lesbian it'd be pretty weird if I didn't love shoujo-ai/yuri. And, babypiggy, the difference is that yuri is more graphic while shoujo-ai is more innocent and sweet; it's exactly like the difference between yaoi and shounen-ai.
Sakaki:
Lol, I can't get into that couple debate since I've actually never seen or read Sailor Moon. *ducks* And I dare say that now it wouldn't hold my interest. *coughneedsyaoicough*
So anyway, I voted yes. I used to read quite a bit fiction, not so much manga, until I became obsessed with yummy yaoi.  ^_____^
sugahcat:
Haruka/Michiru and Utena/Anthy are love ^^ I would say I prefer yaoi over yuri, but part of that is because there's so much more yaoi about. But mostly it's because I think yaoi's hotter (to me, anyway :wink:)
As far as shounen-ai and shoujo-ai go, partly, as I said, there's a lot more shounen-ai about (by which I mean available in English). But love is love is love, and any darling couple will be adored by me <3 And that includes the lovely if unrequited pairing of Tomoyo/Sakura ^^
