I finally ordered all the first volumes of each MXTX books, but I have a really HOMOPHOBIC parents. I don't know what to told them when they see the novels, I think I will say it's a Chinese martial arts novel, no romance and stuff, but I'm not sure if it's enough to convince them that it's not a danmei, can you give me a better excuse to justify my purchases.

    Try to convince them it's a straight romance lol
    I mean since it MXTX, the mcs has long hair and are shorter than the mls so you can with some talking convince them that they are women and this is just a straight romance

    The Untamed is the live action, non- BL version of Mo dao zu shi (cus of censoring). Maybe play it off as the books being based on the show, instead of the other way around?
    The live action is not a romance (it’s a bromance at most).

    I literally show my parents the cover with them making out on it. I’m pretty sure they just think Xie lian is a girl lol
