We are back with our latest episode on the BL Con scene!

There are some truly awful ways that fandom has changed over the past decade and a half, but the move away from blatant misogyny towards female characters is a positive.

@bisexualbaker A blast from the past I just found in my garage.

sherlock holmes x john watson is probably like a 7/10. i see the vision and theyre both consenting adults. naruto x sasuke is like 9/10 ive heard from multiple sources (2) they were meant for each other but it gets actively ruined by the narrative so that knocks off a point. ciel phantomhive x sebastian whatshisname is a 0/10 OBVIOUSLY but grelle x sebastian might be like a 2. i dont really know what they have going on there but theyre both adults at least. phoenix wright x miles edgeworth is a 10/10

you guys should watch this video

I drew a little fanbook I'll be presenting at YaoiCon Paris this upcoming November, in the meantime have a bit of a sneak peek : 3

i will forever be devastated that they had to change the dialogue for the animated version of final victor. the yaoicone was too powerful they had to nerf it

[olderthannetfic]

the yaoi discourse is so wild to me. especially when dudes are saying "don't sexualize men. don't sexualize male friendships". Yes! I've seen a whole ass youtube video of two dudes complaining that women are sexualizing men.

Like... my brother in christ if you're heterosexual dont you want to be sexualized by women? why is it a problem to you?

Reminds me of the first time I went to YaoiCon and we all laughed our asses off at that one AMV with jokes about making yaoi vids to pick up chicks.

homestuck yuri at yaoicon 2011 like god intended

Cursed AU: megarod

au where two people meet at a hotel because there are two conventions going on. one is a very shitty anime convention (the kind of local one where someone is still showing up in 2023 with yaoi paddles, u know). one is an academic convention for some incredibly niche subject that every postgrad in the field attends (because it is the only one in the country, and you have to for networking) and it's really dull and noone actually WANTS to be there by day two.

rodimus is pretending he's there for the shitty anime convention because he does not want the incredibly fit DILF he's been irritating at the hotel bar every night to think he's a fucking nerd. he continues this farce even when the guy says HE'S at the academic convention because like. rodimus is the only person in the world embarrassed by NOT dropping out of university. also the guy might think he shouldn't sleep with rodimus because 'it's a small field' and 'that always gets awkward' or WHATEVER people always say, ugh.

megatron's lying. he's tabling at the anime convention selling smut because it's how he makes ends meet these days after he struggled to get a job after... some things in his personal life a while ago. don't uh. don't worry about it. anyway he's not fucking TELLING the guy trying to cruise him at the bar that, even if he is ALSO here for the anime convention, he is not gonna be known as the guy who hooked up at fucking YaoiCon 2023 in the middle of bumfuck nowhere or whatever, NOPE.

[dinobot]

[babyrubysoho-maiden]

hi! do you happen to know if there is an english translation of inariya sensei's 2011 yaoicon report somewhere online? thank you very much in advance, and thank you for all the previous translation work too!💛💛💛💛💛💛

Hello,

Thanks for your question! Yes, there is an official English translation. You can get it at Barnes and Noble and probably Amazon (definitely Amazon Japan) for like $2.

Here you go!

Enjoy😊

I was born in the wrong generation (too young to have attended bronycon and yaoicon)
