Besides tha, I like Pokemon Special, the BoF IV manga has some really nice artwork. Again, I prefer seinen and jousei works to pure shounen, mostly due to the fact that shounen series are so looooooooong... Too long for me to care.
Nothing wrong with liking shoujo or josei!
I know and I do feel comfortable with that. In fact, I might have never discovered this group if it weren't for my girlfriend. I used to read only shounen manga beforehand (we had only those), but then I wanted to get my girlfriend into anime and manga and she prefers stuff which has more depth, so I started searching for something from the shoujo, seinen and jousei demographics... And now I can never go back Dunno if it counts as a guilty pleasure, since I know a lot of men who will say this is "gay" (not that there's anything wrong with that ). I mean, I don't care! I feel secure enough to genuinely enjoy the shows and/or comics!

It's just that whenever I mention CLAMP to my anime/manga nerd friend, he will go like "OH MY GOD, STOP READING THAT! THAT'S GAY AND DUMB! NOOOOOO!', even though he has read Chobits and liked it. I kinda don't get that logic: he read Chobits, liked it, and yet considers CLAMP gay and stupid and all their mangas suck... Weird, innit?
