Is it possible for me to be straight and like yuri?
Believe it or not, Yuri's main demographic/target audience in Japan is straight girls. Romance has universal aspects to it, so often you can enjoy things that go beyond your sexuality. Sure, guys are usually more appalled by BL, but I've known many who read or watch it anyway. And girls are just 10 times more open to that on average.
Just saying, if the target audience is supposed to be like you, can't really go wrong.
