As someone who is genophobic, finding representation that I relate to is extremely difficult. I’ve never felt so seen in my whole life. While my genophobia doesn’t stem strictly from religion like Kuki, his breakdowns during intimacy are identical to mine. I had to take multiple breaks while reading just because of how well the author was able to portray how difficult it is. I wish there was more media like this
Like. The story is ass. Straight up doo doo water. But what makes me keep on coming back is the fact that the men are… written like men. Like I could fully imagine something similar happening in real life, just maybe not to the full extent. It’s so hard to find yaoi where the men are written like men and not women trying to write men. Does that make sense?
