Everybody knows how guys look at lesbian things, right? Like, playgirl or something? People consider that normal for a guy or whatever. Well, what about a girl who looks a gay guy things? See, I have met a lot of gay men in my 14 years of life. They're really nice to talk to and interesting to hang out with. Just recently, I discovered, yes only just discovered, that there is such thing as yaoi, Japanese for gay porn.
Well, I was flipping through pictures of anime yaoi. You know, because it's techincally not as GRAPHIC as the normal kind of stuff... ANYWAY, I found an interest in writing the yaoi for homosexual friends of mine. I got very good reviews on the stories so far and it makes them feel good knowing that somebody out there actually enjoys their... Interests, I guess is the word? Well, some people disagree with it. I don't mind. ^^ Also, I was just wondering, is it considered a bad thing that I am interested in this 'gay' stuff? I mean, I never thought of it as bad until a friend of mind said so. Please help me with this. ^^;

Or, to answer the question I think you meant to ask, it's perfectly normal and it doesn't make you some sort of sexual deviant.
In fact, in Japan it's generally accepted that the main audience for yaoi and m/m slash is not gay men, its straight women.
Do yourself some quick google searched for yaoi fandom’s and you will find out you are far from alone. Girls like yaoi for the same reason guys like yuri and lesbian porn. Seeing two of what we are attracted too, rather then just one of what we are attracted too, it simply a bonus. It's exotic and interesting. It’s spying some something we can never participate in. There are a lot of reasons it’s appealing to us.
However, don't kid yourself: its still pornography. Its still erotic images. It's not 'less graphic' it is just a different kind of graphic. Be honest with yourself about what it is and you'll be in a better place to accept it. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]

There's nothing wrong with what you're doing, it just could be seen as inappropriate because of your age. It's actually a really common thing and if you Google it or look it up on a site such as LiveJournal, you'll find plenty of websites and communities where you can meet other people who do this and share your work.
As I mentioned before, the fact that you are only 14 is the only thing which is wrong here. As far as I know what you're doing isn't illegal, it's really just cause of what you think is morally right.
