What does your experience in "MyAnimelist" prove anything to do with Japanese girls reading shoujo manga, and its market?

Seriously? That is your defense?
Your obviously extremely narrow window of data gathered by your personal experience with people who have nothing to do directly with the said genre and its demographics?

By the way, there were four or five new yuri magazines that emerged into publishing in just the last two years.
Not to mention, the mega-hit of "Maria-sama ga miteru", whose fandom is almost entirely composed of female fans, have spawned resurgence of like-wise Yuri fad in the recent years.

Seriously, you need to actually look outside your small world, and actually see the facts.

"Nuh-uh Yuri fans can't be real cuz girls I know hate homo" is not a valid argument.
"Nuh-uh Yaoi is more popular so Yuri dun exist" is also not a valid argument.
Yaoi is more popular yes. However, Yuri is also far more popular theme in girls comic than boys. Far. Not to mention it originated there.
