lilithespark's manga / #straight(3)

P.S: Left off on volume 1, chapter 3.5.

Dude, the cover does not do this manhua enough justice. Definitely bittersweet. The author really emphasized their experiences as gay men, living their lives in the eyes of society. I liked that they touched on the opposition from family and general homophobia. Made every drama filled BL I've read pale in comparison to the emotional entanglement the two leads experience, especially in regards to the main character. If you had thought your sexuality was rigid, and you find that it's rough, it's probably a tough pill to swallow which is even more so when being homosexual in China. Appreciated the themes of bettering one's life out of your own volition, moving forward though a world that is seemingly against you.
