An outdated term referring to any
male x male manga,
anime, or fanfiction. Can be explicit or not, oftentimes used in a not safe for
work (NSFW) sense. The term has since been replaced by “Boys-Love” (BL).
Person A: “
Don’t you find it weird how straight
girls will read yaoi but discriminate against gay men?”
Person B: “Yeah, that is pretty
strange.”
