Ooooooo, manga. Or doujinshi; a lot of the actual outright porn I read is still doujinshi, because half the time it's also hilarious. XD
No, I kind of have that problem too, sometimes -- I've got friends who love the Digital Devil Saga games, right? And I can totally accept that everyone turns into cannibalistic demons and their desperate quest for Nirvana, BUT ... I can't accept that, if everyone suddenly can turn into monsters, there'd be fifty gajillion Pyro Jacks or Pixies or whatevers, when every single focus character has a unique (and usually diety-type) monster they turn into. It's like, if you're going to do something like that, there shouldn't be that many duplicates of a monster-type. IT'S A STUPID THING TO GET HUNG UP ON, AND YET I DO.
I DO know that there's yaoi manga without rape -- I've seen it done, and it's often very cute! It's just that more like seven times out of ten, there WILL be a "I love you = I rape you" scenario, or at least the dubious consent that seme-san has to coax uke-chan into accepting.
When I'm not at work, though, I'll check those links out. XD
