      Hey, Hentai stories have feelings TOO ya know ;)
Actually, I thought Yaoi was the Japanese term for slash stories...guys
having sex with one another, in a Lemon like setting...am I wrong?
Please forgive my ignorance (Your probably all used to it by now)
      Just so you know, I have NOTHING against male/male pairings, this is
evidenced in my upcoming Soun and Panda story (Isn't that male/cuddily
animal pairings, and boy, do you think I've plugged ...WHOOPS...errrrrr
I mean advertised that story enough)

>From what you've written, I assume that 'slash' is bad, or something.
Or just negative.

But 'yaoi' is a term that comes from shoujo manga. Girl's manga. I
assume that 'slash' is like that comic someone else was talking about
(the German? one?) with just guys having sex and violence, and that's
basically it?

	Actually, I was refering to a type of FanFic where males have sex with
one another...I think the sirst time I heard the term slash was in
reference to Star Trek stories...you know, Kirk, Spock with a five year
itch and "Bones" McCoy!
        I meant no disrespect to stories with or without male/male sex,
for Yaoi to sound like a bad thing was NEVER my intention...My real
purpose was to defend Hentai a bit while finding out the REAL defintion
of Yaoi was...thanks to Kun-chan for clearing that up.
	BY THE WAY COULD YOU GUYS PLEASE USE ANOTHER SUBJECT HEADING!!!
	THAT WAS THE HEADING TO MY POOR MOUSSE FIC AND I'M TIRED OF THINKING I
MIGHT BE GETTING C&C ON IT...sorry to yell, just venting some rage...
