the onlything i have to say is "Lie like a cheap rug." Hide those books get soemthing cute and adorable and show it to them, but in a 'i don't really wanna show you manner". then they start associating your books for cute adorable kawaii cuteness, and your problem is solved! or just read at like 3 in the morning.

Kaay-chan buy a couple of hard cover books that are about manga sized and then take off the book covers. Hide the books, and put the book coveres on the manga. As long as they don't see the inside of the book you're reading, you're fine. Make sure it's a book you like and that you would read more than once, so then if some one asks why you keep reading the same books over and over again, you can just say that it's so good you can't stop reading it. I've never had to do this before, so I don't know if it would work, but it's worth a shot, right? lol, that's a good idea! xd

I don't have a problem mom knows I like men in drag so this wasn't a big leap in her mind. I did get a half raised eyebrow, but that 's it. Now for example (I know it was used) I'm a big Marilyn Manson fan, but she has hates him. The ways I still get the cd and listen are:
Well I have some privacy, but it sounds like you do not so this doesn't help.
If they only know the names of one yaoi or so just say all the others you read or whatever are regular guy/girl stuff. Then just use the hidden in plain site method.
The woman (mom) once was going to help me bring something up to my room. Well I had to go through a frenzy of hiding various things that I shouldn't have. I had cds behind curtins,cigaretts in my violin case, vodka in a pair of pants locked in a file cabnet,the keys to my file cabnet where in a plant dish. That's only the half of it. All you have to do is be creative. I mean they are old how hard can they look?

Why don't you just go to the library, sit in a dark corner, and read?

Tight spot there. Well, honestly, as of now, there is very little you can do. When you go out to buy different series, they are probobly going to ask you about them. Just start rambling. Go on about the plot, how much you love the art style, and your deep hatred for CLAMP. Anything, just as long as it's manga related. Most likely, they'll want you to shut up, and they will just nod and walk away.

Most likely, they'll want you to shut up, and they will just nod and walk away. Sounds like when I told my mom I was bi. Each time she argues with me about it, I just use math analogies like: "Mom, I'm as straight as a parabola" and she walks away. All you gotta do is talk about it, using the japanese terms for it and they'll eventually get too cunfuzzled and walk away.

when my mom found out i like yaoi she asked my like a thousand questions about it. i was lucky my bestfriend was there to help calm my mom down cause all of my friends bascllay live for yaoi. but my litle 9year old sister got into yaoi so my mom was pissed off by that...... so just tell them strait, tell them you like yaoi and they just have to deal with it.

Just sit around and read it in your bedroom with the door closed. Have some clothes or something lying around on your bed so you can pull them over your book if they open the door.
Closing the door is important. It gives you time. If your grandparents don't knock, ask them to do so. Tell them that you could be naked.
Go to the library, the park, the local Starbucks, wherever. Any place where you can sit around for a couple hours and read is good. If you don't have a library near by, try your school library.

Renee the Rabid Squirrel I really don't know what to say - I haven't gotten the nerve to buy flat out yaoi manga at this point, so all my stuff is fairly internet-based. Same here, my parents would die, and come back to life and knock me out if they found yaoi in my room. You can try locking yourself in the bedroom, or bathroom, and read them.

Be creative in hiding your yaoi. I find that parents never look UP. Therefore, tape stuff to the underside of chairs, desks, bed, w/e. Also, put it in places they would normally look, like having a fake potted plant in your bedroom, only the flower pot has a false bottom, so you can take the entire thing out, dirt and all, and stash your stuff underneath. Switching book covers works well, and maybe getting a big old dictionary and hollowing it out for small items (craft-project, look up the instruction online). For material on your comp, zip up files and password protect. ALWAYS password protect. If you are viewing bad websites, use a proxy. You can get them at www.hidemyass.com, as well as the instructions for setting them up. Keep tons of slightly-higher-than-g-rated sraight fanfics on your comp, and books in your room, in an easily guessable but not obvious location, so they think you're trying to hide the fact that you like straight stuff from them. They'll be so pleased, they'll never talk to you about yaoi again. When talking about yaoi with friends, use as many japanese terms as possible. There's also a "gay slang" dictionary at http://andrejkoymasky.com/lou/dic/dic00.html but it might be a bit difficult to memorize. In short, BE SNEAKY.
