I only watch Will and Grace. And a Belgian show about five gay guys turning one straight guy into the man of a woman's dreams. xD They're both hilarious.

I realised that if mom ever found out I like yaoi, and that my Gravitation manga is about gays, she'd ask me if she could read them. x.x Reason? I had a conversation with her a week ago that went like this:

*mom and I just finished watching the show I told you about earlier*
Mom: *sigh* Why can't we have someone gay in the family?
Me: Huh? o_O
Mom: Oh, please! *rolls eyes* Don't tell you never get tired of all those straight guys around you?!
Me: Umm... Yes, but...
Mom: [yells at my brother who is using the comp] Hey! And why can't you look for a boyfriend instead of a girl?
Brother: [not having a clue what is going on] Eh?
Mom: Truus, isn't that friend of yours gay?
Me: ... [For Dutch class, we had to make a groupwork and I was in a group with 3 girls and 1 guy; all of them came over to my place that day.] Not that I know.
Mom: I see... *walks out of room*

o__O Mom still manages to freak me out...

Will & Grace = smexy. I can do Karen's voice.

That Belgian show? Would it, by any chance, be called Queer Eye for the Straight Guy?

<3's your mom.

I found out my Grandpa is a huge-ass homophobe. He was fixing my computer and got onto my yaoi AMVs and stories and stuff and he was like, angry.

Like... if you watch Fruits Basket and you've seen the episode where Tohru learns about Hatori and Kana and what Akito did...

...then like... angrier than Akito was. For all you others. REAL, REAL MAD.

That's a stereo type, grandparents being homophobic I mean. And grandparents like that make it that way. I don't think my grandparents are homophobic at all. I wouldn't show them my yaoi/yuri stuff, but still.

I alway thought my granddad was a homophobic. I hard to think that he was but it was just something i thought was true.
But he's not. I don't know why it is a stereotype. I mean my grandparents don't care that my cousin is gay (even if they haven't been offically told yet).

Exactly what I'm saying, not all grandparents are homophobic. Me, I'll still be writing yaoi when I'm 90.

Nope... It has a Dutch name, but it's somewhat the same as the English title. It's probably a remake of the show in Dutch. ^o^ We do that a lot! We did it with Idol, Big Brother, The Block, Trading Spaces, etc... Wait... We're freakin' copycats. O_o

Yeah! She's the best! xD

I hope my grandfather never finds out I like yaoi and all that stuff. o_O He's really cool 'n stuff, but I'm afraid he's a li'l bit on the homophobic side. ^^;;

And Ethe... You're not blind by one eye now, ARE YOU?!? X_X

Surprisingly....

I watch Queer Eye for the Straight Guy and Will & Grace; and my dad thinks nothing of it xD Either he thinks I'm watching it because I'm totally BORED or he's just not paying attention.

<3 teh shows.

And luckily enough; no one goes snooping through my favorites or my notebooks or files; or else they'd definately find out xD And my brother is such an idiot...

On my desktop I have a Gravitation background and it has a multitude of pictures blended in the background with Yuki and Shuichi; one of them in a tub...

He didn't notice Shuichi was a guy...

xDD Or on my Kai/Rei or Hiei/Kurama desktop that Rei was a guy and Kurama was a guy. So blind...

That's a very good attitude to take actually.

Yesterday I was planning what to do with my copy of Shinneth's pic, Rooster Luv Luv, and some guy on the bus wants to see the pic. I say, "Um... I don't think you'd want to, it's yaoi." He looks at it anyway. "These two are both guys?" And I say. "That's what yaoi is, male male relationships." He just hands the picture back and stares.

My parents probably be amused to know their daughter isn't 'narrow-minded'. No offence to people who don't like shounen/shoujo-ai..

HAHAHA!! same thing happened to me when i showed my mom my Gravitation amv!! but i think my parents would really disapprove of me if they found out of my obsession for yaoi :sweatdrop:

but then again they'll probly never find out since they dont even know that almost every anime has a little hentai in them :P

I'd never actually tell my family, but they'd freak out. My family is mostly a bit, well, homophobic. If I told them I'd probably be the freak of the family. The only two people that would understand, my friend Katie and my uncle David. Other than that, no way.
