While browsing Digg, I found this wonderful snippet about some of the stuff being sold at Walmart and Target:
This is yaoi at its most extreme: graphic scenes of loving between a college professor and his student, a bar-hopper & some thugs who kidnap him, members of a corrupt soccer team and a tentacle monster who’s hot for a pair of twin bishounen. Nothing is left to the imagination! Mature and explicit content.
The really upsetting part about this is that people shopping at Walmart for yaoi have a much harder time finding it, as it is improperly filed in the children’s section. And can you imagine how embarrassing to be seen in the children’s section by your friends, when all you are trying to get is some hot tentacle yaoi? They might make fun of you being a baby or something! However, as great as the link and article are, some of the comments are even better:

A friend of mine wanted me to pick him up some Japanese porn while I was over there. I went to a bookstore and found what looked to be a normal Japanese hentai. When I gave it to him he threw it on the ground and said “I don’t want that.” I was a little bit surprised. He apparently immediately identified it as gay porn. I gotta say, it’s confusing when they draw the guy with feminine features. That combined with the fact that a lot of their porn is of girls with underdeveloped or no boobs, and it’s easy to see why I was confused. As it turns out, the title (translated) was “Man Boy Love 2″ Damn you Japanese with your androgynous cartoon porn!
Kinda reminds me of this.

LOL! I remember that penny-arcade entry. Those guys always crack me up…
I almost feel bad for all those innocent young boys who will stumble onto something that might traumatizing, then I remember my first experience and chuckle like some evil genius at all of their possible suffering.
I wonder if maybe the yaoi was in the section with the Barbie videos, cause then it would make a lot more sense.
Friends don’t let friends look at yaoi.
“A friend of mine wanted me to pick him up some Japanese porn while I was over there.”
I think that’s the weirdest part of it all.
Yeah… I thought that was odd as well. It was funny that he threw the goods down though as soon as he saw them!
It also sounds like the beginning of a great romance … but maybe that’s just my imagination.
