Koohii stories:

1) [Ramchip] 22-1-2007(138): In basketball however, tall children receive all the attention.

2) [Danieru] 30-11-2007(87): Tall children receive all the attention. They also make great receivers in football… this kanji also means 'catch' (therefore a football receiver is a great image).

3) [Dragonslayer131] 19-11-2009(31): Kinda weird but I remember the weird ones best: A giant MOUTH wearing a TOPHAT RECEIVES its next victim to munch on. This time its a small CHILD whimpering under the figure on the floor, scared of what is to come.

4) [Chaze] 11-5-2010(21): A word of warning: With Heisig's story I keep associating this with "attention"! I use something closer tied to the word receive: Imagine a bunch of kids finding an old radio. It's antenna is broken, so the tallest kid has to hold it up, and becomes the designated receiver.

5) [cefreddffo] 15-10-2009(13): Usually in yaoi couples the short guy is the one who "receives". But here we see how the tall boy is receiving and he enjoys it ( 享楽する ). RTK2: キョウ 享楽主義 きょうらくしゅぎ(hedonism).
