A small review on chapters 23-27

I'mGayAndYouKnowIt November 23, 2023 7:30 pm

"Hands off, you creepy-ass homo" (chapter 23)

The main characters are overtly homophobic, off to a good start! (not)

Next, one of the main characters fools around with women in front of his soon-to-be male lover, and his soon-to-be male lover joins in. Were you, author-nims and artist-nim, inspired by "Killing Stalking?" At least Sangwoo and Bum had their love making moments in the first chapters. Anastasia has been outrageously "straight" the past 27 chapters. That "sandwich?" I did NOT need to see that. I need to bleach my eyes!

I'm furious, yes. I will explain

The "straight" agenda, and the corresponding "straight" script dominate society and mainstream media. The script expects men to pursue women, and prioritize temptations over love for their fellow men; conversely, women are expected to be pursued, and use their looks and bodies to tempt men

References to this script are abundant. Most frequent are references framing men as lust driven and women as men's sexual objects. If I wanted to see them, I wouldn't be consuming BL/yaoi

BL/yaoi (or GL/yuri) is the one thing that doesn't follow the "straight" script. Why are you ruining it?

"Straight" media excludes non-conforming lifestyles. It's only fair to exclude "straight" identifying people and their lifestyle from BL/yaoi (or GL/yuri). Treat them how they treat the gay community

What did you do, author-nims and artist-nim? You did the opposite. Instead of crafting alluring, gorgeous intimate scenes between men, your talent and gorgeous art style were wasted on distributing unhealthy "straight" junk. The junk shouldn't make up more than 0.0% of anyone's daily media intake, or it will contribute to the build-up of junk in the brain. The result of the build-up is a dramatically higher risk for losing brain cells, sanity and morality

Do better, for yourselves and your readers

    Just say you're biphobic and move on cuz I'm bi and I'd fuck both men and women cuz that's the whole fucking point I swing both ways..are you braindead or sum? ريم

    You got a room-temperature IQ? Men "fucking" both men and women isn't just a BL/yaoi anymore. Add "straight" and "bisexual" to the tags

    I wouldn't say I'm "-phobic." I'd support a bi person who resists temptation and exclusively dates members of the same sex

    I wouldn't say I'm -phobic. The "straight" lifestyle is a sin. It's not -phobic to resist it. I'd support a bi person who resists temptation and exclusively dates members of the same sex

    I know that bisexuality exists, do you? A BL/yaoi should feature romantic and/or sexual relationships between men. They are bisexual? Don't include any "straight" scenes, and everything will be okay I'mGayAndYouKnowIt

    I think you're a little too fixated on the gay thing. Boys Love is about romantic relationships between two boys, this doesn't mean they necessarily have to be gay. It's about your own tastes okay, but everything that is happening is for the flow of the story. If you're not interested and just want to see two men fuck!ng, this is obviously not the right story because it's not just about smut.

    They should only fuck men in a BL/yaoi, yes. You want them to "fuck" women? Do it somewhere else. Get busy leaving, or get busy getting cancelled I'mGayAndYouKnowIt

    Apart from the fact that there isn't a specific gender for bisexuality?? And it makes absolutely no sense what you're saying. You're expressing YOUR preference and okay. But you cannot impose this preference of yours on the writer of the work and on the artist

    aimsarahx November 23, 2023 11:22 pm
    Because I don't support the "straight" lifestyle I'mGayAndYouKnowIt

    Honestly scary reading this. It's 2023

    There's no specific genre, so you're going to let "bisexuality" invade BL/yaoi? Why won't you do that to "straight" stories first? BL/yaoi wasn't always a thing. It was first developed and established in the early 1970s. Do you care about "bi representation?" Establish a genre for a particular "anything goes" audience and purpose. Invading a established genre means you don't care about "bi representation." You want to have your cake and eat it, too

    Just stop whining already about "I DoN't WaNt ToO SeE StRaiGhT ScEnE In Bl" it's started to get annoying ok. If you don't want to see it then don't see it. It is as simple as that. No one is forcing you to watch it. Jesus!!

    You are all over the comment section though, commenting on every comment. Like you are shoving it to everyone here what you dislike and you expect people not to find you annoying? As much as they want to ignore you, clearly, you don't want to be ignored. What you're doing is no longer commenting, that's WHINING. I like to read comments and it's annoying finding your name on almost every comment. I didn't even like that they included the girl in that episode because I want to see BL but damn you annoyed me.
