Now, I've never seen a yaoi before, nor do I plan to, but I can say what other people say. I hear real yaoi is very perverted and pornographic... yuri is that way too, but not in the anime that focus on it... It's a known fact that yaoi outweighs yuri. However, if you count anime that just feature yuri but doesn't focus on it, there's probably more of that than legit yaoi or yuri.

So... obviously, men like seeing lesbians. They're everywhere in anime. However, we don't really watch shows or read manga that puts way too much of a focus on emotions and shit. Basically... there's a HUGE oppurtunity for yuri to get popular. Obviously with all these ecchi shows and subtext shows, there is a demand for yuri by men.

So... what option is there? Well... Give us what we want. I mean... Maria-sama and Aoi Hana are alright shows I guess... but those are shoujo anime. And well... male targetted anime tends to get more popular. I think we can all agree the best way to popularize yuri anime is to give it more ecchi... more explosions... more violence... more hardcoreness.

I mean... Sakura Trick had some fanservice I guess. And that seinen, so there's no excuse.. yuru yuri was a little fanservicy but even that wasn't nearly ecchi enough. I mean... I'm not saying these shows should stop focusing on character and emotions... but...

come on... Get a little raunchier. And I ain't talking about just having some panty shots once in a while

You already have something available to you. It's called hentai.
