Sigh

I quite like my own company. And I'm "filth?" That explains why I'm down to earth

The moment people like him decide to off themselves, I'll send flowers to the local landfill. It'd be an appropriate final resting place for trash

Precisely, we should ask ourselves why we had or have laws that set the age of consent too low. Age of consent laws are intended to protect minors from predatory adult-minor relationships and the negative consequences of early "sexual" activity. A low age of consent (below 18-20) doesn't fulfill that purpose

The age of consent being 13 isn't a free pass for adults to "date" minors, though. Sometimes things are implied. That age of consent implies minors can engage in relationships with minors close in age, not adults old enough to be their babysitters. A 15-year-old isn't equipped to handle a relationship with someone 12 years older than them. It'd be a massive gap in life experience, maturity, and power dynamics

We can't measure the BL content from a few seconds of footage. It remains to be seen if this is a half-BL story, a mostly "straight" story with BL undertones, or some other promotional bait

The source material is a gay-topia with not a straight couple in sight. There are two gay couples, and it's all sunshine and rainbows

The adaptation is pairing up Chan Young and Ji Yu to toss a straight bone to the intolerant mainstream audiences and satisfy them. They're not letting gay stories have their moment in the sun

The poster looks like a bad case of straightwashing, it's begging for a rainbow makeover

Omegaverse isn’t BL, it’s BS and should've been canceled before it stinks up the BL genre

I have that effect on people. I'm a plot twist no one saw coming

"Omegaverse is not that deep"

Omegaverse runs deeper than it appears. It's a quicksand. You leap in and realize too late the horrifying depths you’ve been swallowed by

"Some people read so much into every little thing"

Critical thinking or dissecting the media we consume isn't a personality flaw

"Loving Omegaverse does not make you a homophobe"

Willfully ignoring the homophobic elements of omegaverse is homophobic

Omegaverse clings to the belief that for a relationship to be "valid," it should imitate "straight" dynamics. Its mechanics of heat and pregnancy scream, "I'll conceptualize gayness through a straight lens." That’s homophobia in action

Conformity is the currency of public discourse. Stray from the prescribed script, and you're cast as the enemy

I'll clarify that neither Kim Soo Hyun nor any other celebrity holds my admiration, and I support each person's right to share their negative opinions about celebrities. That being said, threatening rape in response to your or someone else’s uncertainty and neutrality is uncivilized and immoral. I apologize on behalf of those who treated you poorly

We've earned the hatred

Humanity’s greatest "talent" isn’t intelligence or innovation, it’s self-delusion. We've perfected the ability to ravage everything in sight. We set fire to our own habitat and build societal systems that exploit the weakest, be they human or otherwise, while writing poems about our so-called "brilliance" and "progress." An outside observer wouldn’t see an intelligent, brilliant species. They’d see a highly advanced virus with shoes

We shouldn't. Humans would spread their dysfunction to other planets and turn them into Earth 2.0. Same problems, different planets

"Being selfish doesn't make a person bad"

It's this quality that's granted us the power to build empires and tear them down with equal fervor, to trample on the rights of the different and marginalized, to start wars, to betray our loved ones, and to take the last cookie in the jar. Our selfish survival has come at the expense of the environment and the welfare of other species

Humans are flawed, selfish creatures with an immense potential for immorality, and that dark potential has sealed our fate as the architects of our own demise

Reading this, you might infer that I hold a negative, pessimistic view of human nature, and you wouldn't be wrong. I hate humans, myself included. However, there's something interesting about Jin Uk, and I wish we had more time to explore his story

"So what if he dated her when she was young"

If "young" means "minor" or "legally underaged," it's a matter of grooming her, stunting her emotional growth, exploiting her lack of life experience, and causing lifelong damage. "Love" is a felony away

"You never know who you get attracted to"

You can control how you act on that attraction. Your response to discovering your attraction to a minor shouldn't be to pursue a relationship with them

"Not like he killed her"

Is that the standard you hold yourselves to? The bar for decency has hit rock bottom

"... isn't an 18 or even a 20 yo with an almost 50 yo man fuvked up too??"

Individuals who are 18 or 20 years old are legally considered adults and can make informed choices about their relationships. As long as both parties involved consent, the relationship isn't immoral. Uncomfortable, yes. Immoral, no. It wouldn't carry the level of harm an adult-minor relationship does

"i don't get why they picked such a messed up work to adapt"

It'd have been wiser for the producers to select a different story for adaptation, I agree

There's an old saying that goes, "one person’s trash is another person’s treasure." This drama is a 1/10 trash for you, and a 10/10 museum-worthy masterpiece that tops the weekly watchlist for others. The story makes sense to them, and they have their reasons for enjoying it

Yep

You're conflating appreciation with objectification. Appreciating someone's appearance doesn't reduce them to an object. It's possible to admire their beauty while recognizing their humanity

I'm not seeing the common sense you're referring to

It's okay to sit back and appreciate the eye candy. Enjoying something for its surface-level qualities isn't a crime against you
