Yeah...I'm not a fan of that one honestly. I wish they choose a transgender actresses. Also, I didn't like that they used the main character transitioning as a plot device for revenge. I felt super uncomfortable.Soljiwan:
Well, all the transgenders are super old tho, like ancient. If we count Golf and Godji and whomever.
Oh so it is a transitioning thing, not a ghost thing... that is very unfortunate. I hope they still change a bunch of things about that plot, because presenting transitioning as a thing a man with bad intentions does in order to trick an unknowing lesbian into a romantic relationship is... Real Bad.Ryn:
I would like more transfemme main characters but not like this lol.
I don't see them hiring actual trans people tho. And do they even have LGB people among their team of actors and actresses? I know Namtan said something about herself being bi, so did Milk. Anyone else?
Well I also suspect Gun is gay, but don't quote me on that. I think we'll see all of them settled into their families in like 5 to 10 years, at least the actors and actresses who are well established. And if they're not at GMMTV anymore (either because they're too old for BL/GL or they'd rather do something else), well, kudoes to them. GMMTV is not that good of a company anyway.

From what I've seen a ton of GL actresses have said they were not straight, but idk how many of those were from GMMTV specifically. Maybe Ciize and View? Idk don't remember. BL actors are also increasingly open about this in general. Not to mention the behind the scenes crew which is also largely not straight. But I'm not going to dig up listicles.
Paper Peerada, Yoshi Rinrada Thurapan and Rock Kwanlada Rungrojampa would all have been suitable trans candidates in terms of acting experience and in terms of the conventional attractiveness that GMMTV definitely looks for in its actresses. But personally I would actually also really like Godji and Golf Kittipat as a ship together. Though I understand that GMMTV wouldn't take that marketing risk given that they're both in their early 40's (but I kinda like that because I would like a more diverse age range). They were already a side couple in 23,5 and they are both still GMMTV actresses, so there's not zero hope. Jennie Panhan is another trans GMMTV actress who has featured as part of side couples before.

They made a statement/post saying that thats not the reason for the transition but they cant say more because of spoilers.

still wish they wouldve used this as a chance to lift of transgender actresses though.
This is my completed bingo for this year. I got almost all the pieces right and I couldn't have done so without the help of GMMTV itself. Since they added so many series this year, everyone had something.
See you next year and until then I AM SO GOING TO WATCH ALL THE GLs <3
we need a GL bingo!!
Does anyone know where to watch Futari Escape with english subs ? I found the first episode but I'm not able to find the rest.
I dont know how far they have gotten:
Lonely Subber is doing a valiant job of creating subtitle files on D-O. There's also the tumblr subber Isaksbestpillow working on the project (though i personally haven't vetted them, so proceed with caution)
