It's strange. There's not that much yuri and shonenai out there, yet alot of porn is full of women x women action. And the male/male stuff is harder to find. Atleast in America. So, people only like femme slash when it's in real life? @_*
Well, I do agree with you about the lack of yuri out there. I think the constant pairing has to do more with the fact that Ed and Roy and the two biggest (human-fleshed) protagonists, and people tend to pair the main characters together because they're drawn pretty to ensure popularity (ZOMGSHINEY pairings are very hard to resist ^^;;). Elricest would probably be a lot more popular IMO if there wasn't that incest taboo, and the...I dunno, armor sex going on? I agree with you about the pedophilia. I see Roy wanting to be a father to Ed, and Ed wanting an older brother, but I do NOT see the sexing going on. Especially during the series.
Sidenote: ZOMG ROYAI FTW!!! Though the director for the movie and the OVAs was a complete RoyxEd fan, and trampled on the OTP. ;_____;
