Because finding boys (especially straight boys) who know what yaoi is , like it, and are willing to *admit* that they like it is quite rare. It tends (in the US, at least) to be almost completely dominated by girls/women from their early teens into their 50s and 60s.

First off--I gotta laugh--\n\nSince most of my dumb-ass college dormy people couldn't tell that the bishonen on my wallpaper WERE boys--\n\nI don't think you have to worry.\n\nSecond--Anime, and Japan itself aren't so uptight about "bubble space" anyway--and they are very close.\nMy english teacher just about popped a gasket when my friend and I gave a presentation on our favorite anime. There was a tender picture up there--and he was all freaked about lesbians.\nWe had to reassure him--that the boys were like that TOO.\n\nBest of luck to you.

Japan. xD\n\nIt's not out in America yet. CoS comes out this October on TV, but I don't think you'll be able to buy it unless Adult Swim releases it on DVD. Fansubs are on the internet already though, but they're illegal. If you search "FMA movie" on YouTube and look through a few pages you'll find it there posted in parts.

Yaoi - Male/male \nShounen ai- male love... I think\nYurri(or spelt yuri, not sure which) - female/female\nShojo- girly love stories is the way I'd describe them.\n\n\nThere are obviously others, I just don't know the names.

Compared to the majority of the world, which has a traditional view of human sexuality and relationships, the American attitude on sex portrayed in movies and television, is embarrassing and appalling to most of the world: Muslims, Asians, Africans. From the majority world's perspective, American sexuality is immature for being uninhibited.\n\nImplied in the question might be a preference for an even more progressive attitude about sexuality. One may need to make a case for that on a basis other than the "rest of the world."

NO.\n\nMany cultures don't have concepts about 'gay'ness as other developed nations. Men hugging each other, keeping their arms around each others' shoulders...such gestures are not considered gay, although there exists gay people in their society. The relation between two males is still close friendship, and so LOTR is one of those kinds, not based on developed nations' favorite gayism.

If you're looking for the hardcopy manga (printed and not off a computer) I'm not sure if it's available in the U.S. or not - I know about the Vandread anime (season 1 & 2 were great, would have loved to see more) but that's all I've seen.  Wish I could have been of more help.
