Get the yaOImug. Many people (mostly fangirls) get the term Yaoi, mixed up with the term shounen-ai though the two may be closely related being that they both show relationships between male characters, there is a difference. One depicts explicit content So let's clear things up, shall we?
Yaoi is used to describe titles that contain sex scenes and other sexually explicit themes
Shounen-ai is used to describe titles that focus more on romance and do not include explicit sexual content
Yaoi is used to describe titles that contain sex scenes and other sexually explicit themes
Shounen-ai is used to describe titles that focus more on romance and do not include explicit sexual content
We'll use the Gravitation manga series and doujinshi as an example
Gravitation would more likely be considered shounen-ai due to its focus on the characters' careers rather than their "love life"
Gravitation Remix and Megamix would be considered yaoi because of its emphasis on the characters' sexual relationships.

Get the yaoimug. Yaoi is a Japanese word, which is actually something of an acronym. It comes from "YAma nashi, Ochi nashi, Imi nashi", which means "no climax, no point, no meaning".
In speech and writing, it's a slang term used to refer to stories that focus on homosexual relationships, usually between men. Yaoi tends to involve graphic sex, often with little or no plot. The female equivalent is yuri.
A related genre is shonen-ai, or "boys' love", which tends to involve less sex and more cuddling (and plot).
