Man with the heart of a woman
(๑•ㅂ•)و✧ a beauty none the less!

I swear is it so hard to just say Rino is trans. Seriously not everyone is born with the right body for their gender...

it's true, my brain is not male or female . . . it's alien . . . .

forreal why did everyone immediately start calling her a he when Hana literally confirms for them "Rina is definitely a woman" like what the Fuck

This happens all the time in manga and it pisses me off so much. I mean seriously use their correct damn pronouns!!

That's why we love you Usako, you're our fave little alien!

No sorry. I never really like sticking a label on it. I don't even call me bro- in law gay
@justthewayiame ╮(￣▽￣)╭ლ(´ڡ`ლ)

Not mad at you Luly, more mad at the manga and how writers then to portray trans characters. It's not so much about labels as about respecting their choice. If your bro is gay and you spend every day asking him when he's going to settle down with a nice woman, there you go. Same for seeing Rino and go oh male body, I need to resort to calling her him immediately. I find it painful to read stuff like that, people learn from what they read. If they read about respect then they respond to life with respect.

Oh my.. you made me blush. "That's so right" I thought. If he or her fell like her or he, than that's what they fell fell, and that should be respected. PS not even a little mad, I've never like feeling like that, especially with ppl that I don't even know ┑(⌒▽⌒)┍

Yo, you been digging deep. That actually sounds quite plausible. But Christoph seems so sweet I don't wanna believe it!!

That would've been a better plot twist thn logan honestly, everyone already suspects him

Omfg i hope not i ship him with ryan

Same!!

You know what that may explain why in the new chapter when Sihan didn't let Karis eat the little pastry Christoph had helped him make!!! Omg im too invested in this now!

honestly i dont wanna believe my own theory either lmao.

i am obviously in way too deep. this story is SOOOO GOOD.

i don't wanna believe that theory because i ship christoph with ryan >.<

Well I think the complain is warranted in this case because the whole story so far has been constantly reinforcing the fact that the uke is into "hardcore BDSM stuff" and he defines himself as a "hardcore M bottom", and yet the wildest thing he does is wear a blindfold and some handcuffs. (I know that BDSM can include other things like verbal abuse but there's none of that here either, just some regular dirty talk).
Same can be said with all the cover art. It constantly brings attention to the BDSM aspect of this story, basically telling the reader "fufufu you are about to see some kinky stuff" and yet it completely fails to deliver that in favor of a super vanilla sex scene. Nothing worng with vanilla sex, I like them too, but it bothers me that the story is presenting itself to the viewer as that it's not.
It's not so much that they are tame, the story barely features any BDSM elements at all. It barely glances over them, there's not even a full scene dedicated to them.
All of this wouldn't be so bad if the uke was, say, a younger character, who didn't actually now that much about BDSM and so he thought that what he was doing was hardcore stuff when actually it was very tame, but that's not the case. This guy is supposed to be an adult, and because of that, he ends up looking reallly stupid, and it shows that the author hasn't done any research on the topic she's writting about.

Interesting discussion. One of the problems with trying to frame the story as BDSM is that the power dynamic is all wrong. The self-proclaimed "M" is running the show all the way, and the Tachi is the real whipping boy, emotionally speaking. Also, he's very needy, which makes him a drain, not a source, of energy. Not that a BDSM story needs to conform to these dynamics to be interesting, but if someone intends to flout somewhat formal conventions, it needs to handled with finesse, or at least with a bit of sneakiness.

How does the "wounded puppy" type convincingly turn into a wolf? It sure isn't by whining.

lol I didn't even notice that. That's a really good point too, thank you for bringing it up!

I tried to buy Coins for $10 today, but it seems they only accept credit cards. I'll buy them once they accept Paypal which they hopefully will, soon. Pretty please (▰˘◡˘▰)

I think you can use paypal on mobile app

If you can download the Lezhin app, here's how to use Paypal http://www.mangago.zone/home/album/30597/

Really? Awesome! Thanks a bunch :)

Do u know if prepaid credit cards would work?

I think so. It doesn't cost anything to get an account so it won't hurt any to sign up and try to pay that way. I remember them having quite a few payment option payments at coin checkout.

I'll try! Thanx
