Well, when I went to Hawaii, all the airline staff who who checked plane tickets asked me for photo ID, and only 16+ year olds need photo ID. I'm only 13! -------------------- http://members.aol.com/risberg/blades/ Eternity approaches. Posts: 56 | Registered: Friday, October 5 2001 07:00 |

And I'm nowhere near 21! The 21 year olds I was with did get asked for ID though, which worries me. -------------------- I say never be complete. I say stop being perfect. I say let's evolve. Let the chips fall where they may. Posts: 1277 | Registered: Sunday, December 9 2001 08:00 |

"shoonen-ai models"? What is this, some sort of native Finnish geronto-porn? Pics, please! Posts: 2333 | Registered: Monday, January 7 2002 08:00 |

I believe the correct spelling was "shounen" and I don't think you want to know :P -------------------- Song of the Pack -- An Online Multiplayer Wolf RPG!~ Posts: 223 | Registered: Friday, October 26 2001 07:00 |

Um, how is shounen-ai different from yaoi? Is one less crass or something? -------------------- ... Posts: 647 | Registered: Wednesday, February 19 2003 08:00 |

Now that spelling is a mystery to us all. I wish I could stick my finger into it and say it is that way or this way, but I can't. You see shonen, shoonen, shounen...actually, I can say. *Checks dictionary* Shoonen! And note that TGM is really a 65-year-old dirty man...why does that remind me of TM? Uhh, nevermind. ^_^ [ Sunday, May 11, 2003 06:22: Message edited by: Chibi-Arctic ] -------------------- KhothMk2: You don't get 72 virgin camels though Posts: 995 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |

I may be wrong, but I think yaoi is supposed to be younger people. -------------------- Grammar wenches beware: This is the house that the malt that the rat that the cat that the dog that the cow that the maiden that the man that the priest that the cock that the farmer kept waked married kissed milked tossed worried killed ate lay in.

I see people want details. *Grins* Well, to make it very simple, shoonen-ai means boy love, while yaoi means roughly gay porn. So shoonen-ai is...uh, bishounen stuff. But really, they usually mean the same. -------------------- KhothMk2: You don't get 72 virgin camels though Posts: 995 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |

Aww, Saunders. Do you not see the beauty of it? There is a difference between a romance story on TV and a porno you buy at a sick video store and go into your "private viewing booth" with. -------------------- Song of the Pack -- An Online Multiplayer Wolf RPG!~ Posts: 223 | Registered: Friday, October 26 2001 07:00 |

Shounen-ai is the conventional transliteration for English, yes. I cannot speak for Finnish; Arctic is probably right there. Yaoi is shounen-ai, but shounen-ai is not necessarily yaoi; the former comes from, depending on who you ask, a phrase meaning "no content, no climax, no conclusion" [AKA "Plot? What plot?"], or a phrase meaning "Please stop, my butt hurts!" -- in either case, it's basically a reference to plotless man-sex. On the other hand, shounen-ai generally refers to stuff about male-on-male relationships. Yaoi fits into this category, but does not encompass it. -------------------- desperance -- je me souviens arena -- et je me souviens de vous Posts: 2449 | Registered: Monday, October 15 2001 07:00 |

Is there a female equivalent of yaoi? Or is that hentai? Or does hentai encompass all Japanese drawn dirty stuff? I'm personally betting on the last being correct. -------------------- desperance.net -- Come on in, we don't bite. Well, I don't. Posts: 218 | Registered: Saturday, July 13 2002 07:00 |

The female equivalent of yaoi is yuri, or shoujo-ai. And "hentai" literally means "weird" or "perverted". I believe in Japan it can be used to describe pornography in general; over here, of course, it's used specifically to describe pornographic anime. -------------------- I believe there are 15 747 724 136 275 002 577 105 653 961 181 555 468 044 717 914 527 116 709 366 231 425 076 185 631 031 296 protons in the universe, and the same number of electrons. -- Sir Arthur Eddington Posts: 9973 | Registered: Saturday, March 30 2002 08:00 |

quote:The long "oo" sound is usually produced by the "o" character followed by the "u" character when written in Hiragana and by the "o" followed by a dash when done in Katakana. Hiragana is used for native words (most of which have kanji equivalents), while Katakana is used for mimics of foreign languages, most commonly English. So depending on what set of alphabets one uses, the spelling may vary. Since shounen-ai sounds nothing like any English word, I'm guessing it is in Hiragana. Then again, both spellings maybe accepted since there are exceptions to the "ou" rule. Posts: 286 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |
