I'm a fan of yuri because I am a fan of cute people doing cute things and also because I can relate so hard to some of the stories contained in them. I've never really gotten into yaoi mainly because it's not what I'm attracted to but I honestly don't see the issue of males liking yuri. I like to think that not every guy who likes yuri material is going "OMG I LOVE HOT ANIME LESBIANS!" all weird like and that they can appreciate that there's often a bit of a charming little love story to go along with it. 



I ran a group yuri RP like...two years ago and it was fun and had men and women RPers involved. Like what you like, friend. I like yuri not because I live that girls love life everyday but because stuff like Aoi Hana still makes me cry just thinking about it.
