Consider the loli or shota, would you want to pervert an unperverted human being? In which case you would have the dichotomy between innocence and darker knowledge. People who say Aria is yuri are trying to take away the innocence of beautiful minds, just because they can. Why do they do this? Is it because they are cynical having lost their own innocence?

It’s there if I want it to be?”

If someone can somehow see that and provide reasoning to “justify” that claim, than that idea is there when they want it to be. This doesn’t mean that the idea is correct or right or not. It’s just saying that there’s more than one way to interpret something, and that just because you don’t see it doesn’t that everyone doesn’t see it. It’s up to you to determine what is or isn’t there for you, but keep in mind that it’s not the same for everyone, whether you consider that stupid or not.

I assure you, I believe that someone who does believe that Azumanga Daioh promotes hunting small children while biking in Vietnam is a little off of their rocker (now shoes on the other hand I could get behind). But it doesn’t mean they can’t believe that, and I find that okay. It’s not that serious.

No, ‘cuz it’s not there.

The currency is ‘belief’/'acceptance’ and the tools for selling include rhetoric, knowledge of theory, level of education (to a degree NICE PUN), Aria-fu, etc.

The interesting thing is that nobody buys. The Aria can be anything readers won’t invalidate the non-yuri reading, but won’t buy it because they will prefer their own, and the Aria is not-yuri reader won’t buy the theoretical ‘sophistry’ of the other group.

All sorts of readings can be made on anime shows. ‘crap’ is a reading. Judgment: dismissal, praise, recommendation always follows some level of analysis – however ‘flawed’ (which is a reading/imposition of values in itself).
