shounen-ai

Anime, manga, or fanfic that depicts non-explicit relationships between two males. Usually focuses on the romantic/ loving/ emotional side of the relationship, unlike yaoi which focuses on the passionate/ lustful/ physical side. Usually no more than PG-13 rated.

Non-homophobic soccor moms would have no problem with shounen-ai.

yuri

Anime, manga, or fanfic that depicts explicit lesbian relationships. Usually focuses on the passionate/ lustful/ physical side of the relationship, unlike shoujo-ai which focuses on the romantic/ loving/ emotional side. Usually R rated or higher.

Also, a fairly common girl's name in Japan, meaning "Lily".

Even if you have no problem with lesbianism, I would not reccomend showing Yuri to your kids.
