coming from a gay man...

I like how the author explored the prejudice (and heteronormativity) of sex role in gay relationship. And unlike most yaoi mangas, she also explained that top/bottom is NOT a fixed position. I hope more mangas like this exists. It's time for authors and readers to stop being so obsessed about who's on top or who's on bottom, stop assuming sex position based on appearance/certain characteristic traits, stop making gay relationship heteronormative. In general, i just wish people stop policing how sex between men should be--when they're neither man nor queer.

I do have problems with this manga, though... first, why couldn't they just refer each other as "husband" instead of "wife"? It's just so weird and feels diminishing for m/m marriage. Second, i get that the mother is desperate for grandchild, but is it really necessary to force them to have sex, not to mention that his son could have raped the councelor? Can i please have abo stories with NO dubcon? It would be a better and more powerful story if both of them resolved the problem on their own. If i were any of them i would have cut ties with the mom, no matter what her intention is.

    The mom had cameras and probably men ready to interfere if her son was going to attack.

    Well, tbh i didn't catch that because i skipped her part entirely. I don't care what her reason or plan was, it's still wrong and invasive. Like i said, i would cut ties with my mom if she put me in that kind of situation, no matter what her intention, and no matter that she had some sort of security measure (which, again, doesn't excuse her doing at all) or not.

    I don’t remember exactly why she did that but i remember her son saying that his mom had to take care of him alone and had to go through lots of hardship so it made her go intense. I think the mom had good intentions and she was aiming for her kid’s happiness.

    Yes, and i still don't care. I've been in a non-con situation and it's the worst thing i've experienced. The idea of a mother willingly putting her own son in that situation is appalling to me. I don't care about her background. I don't care that she thought she was doing her son a favor. It's wrong, it's disgusting, and it shouldn't be excused, whatever her intention was.
