INFP (4w5)
Yaoi personality type is ENFP, but I've always been a bit of an ENTP.
You see, I'm the type of person who's liked by everyone. I'm a bit of a peacemaker, I like to help people, and I'm extraordinarily caring and compassionate. I'm also the type of person who might get along with my best friend's ex boyfriend that they're not supposed to be together anymore, just so I can talk to him and make him feel better. I'm very sensitive, very empathetic and very understanding. I'm a people pleaser in reality, and I like to make others happy. So when I saw this girl, it was so easy for me to fall in love with her, because she made me feel warm and fuzzy inside.
But when my partner asked to be my girlfriend, I didn't really think it through. I didn't really think about what I was doing or what it would mean for us in the long run, or how it would effect either of us. I just wanted to be with her.
As I've matured though, I realized how stupid and silly this all was.
Yaoi, also known as Boys' Love or BL in Japan, is a genre mostly written by women, for women, that depicts homosexual relationships between men. Japan typically uses this single category for all forms of these relationships, sexual or not. In the West, the term Shounen-ai categorizes stories that focus on emotional aspects of relationships, while Yaoi categorizes more of the sexual aspects, such as Smut, or explicit content. As Anime-Planet's audience is mostly based in the West, we use the Western definition for both Yaoi and Shounen-ai. See BL for a list of both titles.
