OMIGOD I want the shirts. Especially the Anti-Drug one. But what I really want is the shirt that says "I love boys" on the front, "with other boys" on the back. I would soooooooo wear that all the time. Link-> www.yaoi-manga.com/product?id=3GYAAAAA!! I want it so much. |

The anti-drug one gets a lot of weird looks from non-yaoi fans (especially since the average person on the street doesn't know what it is) but I have met a few yaoi fans wearing that shirt. ^___^
Yea, that one's cool too. ^___^
I want them ALL! >__<
And the paddle *cackles* >__<

The paddle is hilarious. People will give you strange looks if you carry it around on the street.

Seme and uke are the...er...sides of a yaoi relationship. yaoi-manga.com puts it very nicely.
Seme:(pronounced Seh-meh) From the verb 'semeru', attack.
This is usually the dominant force in a relationship, not necessarily aggressive, but the driving force of the pair. Usually, but not always, the quieter and more level headed of the pair.
Uke:(pronounced Ooh-keh) from the verb 'ukeru', receive.
This is usually the secondary person in the relationship, and who reacts to the Seme’s actions. Usually, but not always, the more expressive of the pair, and often the “hero” of the story in the sense of what viewpoint the story is told in. Also tends to be shorter in stature than the seme.
Or as YL puts it, Seme-- top, and uke-- bottom. ^^;
And the paddle is the yaoi initiation paddle, as found at yaoi-manga.com

Really, the terms apply to any relationship.... they're just most widely used in yaoi or shounen ai. I definitely fit the uke personality.  |

If you want to put it in my terminology I would say:
Seme - the one who penetrates.
Uke - the one who receives.
If you don't get it, I will hit you with a brick.
