Is it normal for boys to read shoujo manga?

Just wondering if it's weird for one gender to read a manga made for the other gender.

    And because of all you stupid people, suicides are more likely to happen! Why should you care what other people do? At least they're reading. Gosh get a life.

    To be completely honest... I want to say not normal, but I guess it can all depend on the manga.

    If it's something like Fushigi Yugi, I want to say not normal, but if it's something like The Wallflower, it probably is.

    I mostly say it's not normal because shoujo is the anime/manga equivalent to chick flicks: it's only intended for the female gender, and is usually awful.

    If girls can read shonen, why can't guys read shojo?

    Please i read yoai, yuri,shoujo, romance etc. I don't care the genre just depends on if i like the storyline or not. This also goes for a few of my friends. I'm a guy by the way :)

  • If there are no nostrils in it, it's weird.

    I have absolutely no idea what a manga is. Can anybody educate me without being a jerk?

      Manga is like a graphic novel I believe. I think they're mostly from Japan. You read them from back to front. A lot of anime is based on them like Naruto, Bleach, Full Metal Alchemist. I've never actually read any manga but I think that's good description.

        Okay, now I think I have a grasp on it. That being said, I don't think its abnormal to read a manga for the other gender.

    If something is good, it's good. Regardless of the original target audience.

    It doesn't mean that because the publisher decides to target it at girls, that guys can't enjoy it too.

    If you read manga, nothing's weird.
