oh right sorry i was wrong about that then.. i read this story some time ago so i didn't really remember it that well
i meant it only in case people consider him bi without paying attention to him being with women in past and thinking that way only because he slept with shion (as if his gender was changing every time his body changed)
i hope you know what i mean.. english is not my first language so i might not be that great at explaining ..
1. In terms of gender yes, shion is most likely male no matter which body he’s in. However his sex still changes. I say most likely because it’s unconfirmed whether the spell changes his gender identity and makes his thoughts different but as it hasn’t been mentioned this is most likely not the case.
2. Whether Rui is bisexual or not cannot be confirmed with the information we have. Rui hasn’t talked about his dating and attraction history in great detail. We only know he’s a playboy who’s fucked lots of girls. He was willing to engage in sexual activity with Shion without a second thought but it was due to their fondness for each other. That isn’t to say that Rui isn’t attracted to other males. I think you worded this part of your comment wrong because most people here aren’t assuming Rui is bi because he slept with Shion as a woman but because he didn’t hesitate to jerk him off and then sleep with him as a man.
3. Gender identity isn’t everything. Your sex still matters. Especially to a visual person like Rui. Shion even states how appearance focused Rui’s taste in women is. Even if Shion is mentally a male in his female body to Rui, Shion is a female version of his best friend. Rui considers him his best friend. But still female. And when he changes back he’s male. It’s not readers randomly coming up with this. Using trans people as an example, most appearance focused people won’t register them as their preferred gender unless they pass (when it comes time to engage in sexual activity). That’s unfortunately just what happens. You can’t force people to be attracted to a sex they don’t see as appealing.
4. Continuing on that idea fujoshi are usually straight women. They’re not attracted to other women. Of course they think it’s less hot. Straight porn is hot to straight women bc women put themselves in the place of the girl in the video. But fujos don’t want to self insert with female shion. They just want to observe. Or maybe even self insert with rui. I find it more common to self insert with the seme rather than the uke when reading yaoi (tho I don’t do either this is an observation). So it makes sense that straight women that aren’t attracted to women find this story less hot than smth like bj Alex. And that’s ok. This story is made for people that don’t mind seeing or are attracted (visually) to both genders/sexes. This is Porn with minimal plot after all. It was made as jerk off material. Not an in depth analysis at sex and gender identity.
P.S. I love how you think fujoshi are disgusting but frankly I think rude people who bunch together many different people under a single label to hate them all are way more disgusting. As a bisexual who already has to deal with gay AND straight ppl telling me I’m disgusting because we can’t pick, we’re promiscuous and cheaters.....not impressed. Very disappointed.
Point is: bad people exist everywhere and instead of trying to see good people too you shut everyone out and discriminate them all. Terrible. Prejudice.
I love boy love because generally speaking the relationship progression is more realistic I hate how helpless and stupid females tend to be in romance manga or worse the authors make it seem like females has no sexual desire at all. BL gives me the satisfaction of 2 people falling in love at a normal progression though usually among totally abnormal situations. I do not know why people hate on females loving BL manga so much. ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
My biggest problem, is people who try to say that I, a straight woman, am fetishising gay relationships, or gay sex. Which I find weird, because watching people have sex is an actual fetish. And in my case, I have thought about being on the receiving end of anal, and on the giving end dispite being female. That is a fetish. Pegging is a fetish. Also, it is the same as men who use lesbian sex to get off. There is just 2 of the types of sex they like. I like men, I very rarely read straight series, because I don't fit the molds of females that they have. Like, I get drawn out because of things like, no woman moans like that. Or boobs don't work like that. Which is why I enjoy yaoi, cause anal makes you make sounds you never thought you would. So, yeah.
THAT! Especially 4. I don’t like straight porn, the only female body that I feel attractive is my one. I don’t get why people think that they can force someone to feel attracted to something SPECIALLY when these people saying this are a sexual minority. They can talk all day about how am I wrong and guess what? At the end of the day, the male body remains the only one that excites me. Don't get me wrong, I don't hate women, I think the female body is beautiful, almost sacred, but I don't think it's hot. What's the problem? They can't demand that I feel guilty about it
wait.. you guys are aware that shion is still a man no matter which body he's in right....? cuz like,, if you think that the dark hair guy is bi only because he had sex with shion in woman's body then i have some new for you ..
but like. literally it's really weird that most of you suddenly consider their sex 'less hot' and 'less gay' if one of them doesn't have a penis and has boobs insted.. like what's so weird about it? they're still men so..?
and also don't get me wrong I don't support fujoshis and I think their behaviour is really disgusting but I also wanted to point that thing out cause it was really pissing me off
