Please read my comment one more time because you are putting words in my mouth i never said. My initial statement was that producers made main characters act famine for additional comedy undertones and not because they are so progressive as big amount of watcher want to think (It's channel 3 for god sake) Did i wrote that more "fem' don't exist, fake it or are bad? NO I wrote that i don't like HOW they were portrayed. Because this show is playing into stereotypes - only shorter, less muscular, artsy type can act femine, while having crushes on more straight, muscular sporty type.
Since when your hobbies or look is major factor on how you should act?
While having 3 couples in the show they could easily mix it up. That why i wrote they should use Nuea or Sky characters to showcase that if they truly wanted to be progressive

Read my comment one more time, because we talk about different things. I don't mind the portrayal of more "fem" guys, but it bothers me how they were portrayed. Why Sky or Nuea can't me more flamboyant? Why Toh, Jao and Daisy are all passive while waiting for their secret crushes to look at them and flirt? Can't they be confident and take charge? Can't they be taller and more muscular than their counterparts? Why Toh, Jao and Daisy artsy types all have crushes on muscular sporty popular ones? Why do they all need to be more submissive ones in their respective relationship? I have 100 of such why.
"but this series is different because it caters more to real people who identify as LGBTQ+" - please rethink it, ask any gay person from LGBT community that is above 25 years old or even better 30 if this even resembles the representation they want when they for years deal with this stereotype and was bullied for it, and there are a big amount of slurs they heard related to this stereotype. I am sure you can think of few without me even telling you.
Also tell this opinion to LGBT communities in countries where LGBT rights aren't recognized and guy aren't considered real men. Please tell them this series cater to them and is progressive.
You might not have watched the same show or met enough gay people who aren't typical masculine to honestly come…
Are we really watching the same show? Good question, because i could point you to countless scenes that validate my statment. Also, i know several people from the LGBT community, some are my friends from HS - so i clearly remember what kind of crap they needed to deal with on daily basis. Maybe that is why I am more sensitive to the portrayal of such stereotypes and its exactly these... stereotypes that were used for the sake of additional comedy.
The more I watch this show the more I am sure that opinion - I like that they used fem guys to humanize them because ita so progressive - is FALSE. They just made them behave this way to add another comedic underline to their already comedic show. All three main characters are passive buttons who need masculine men's protection because they can't do anything for themselves while behaving and being treated as teener girls... If their roles were really acted by women majority of the audience would say " they are so fake", "Being female don't mean you need to be a damsel in the distress", "Damn girl get help." etc. But magically this show is okay because its BL, while Thailand and many other countries still need to deal with this damn stereotype... Just how?
I am not sure what but something doesn't work for me - I like basic storylines - I like a slice of life dramas - I think that MC & ML acting are pretty good - I am a total sucker for a second chance for love troope But somehow I am just not feeling it....
It's kinda my major problem with this show are they trying to be progressive or playing into stereotypes? Because…
Thank but as you see this is very unpopular opinion. Everyone treats it as a harmless comedy while I personally would be too ashamed to even recommend it to anyone in LQBT community.
It still pretty early - there is bellow 500 people who scored it so every vote count and can make score change.
Depending how the plot go everything can still change. But i wouldn't cross my finger for it. It's simple cute story as you said but to make it work for bigger audience it need to have flashy element about it (BB, 2ogether, 2moon, Theory of love) but its not director New strength.
Honestly, he didn't 'purposefully' do anything to piss anyone off. The fish incident and the kitchen were purely…
I don't mean kitchen or pissing. But getting in fight as soon as he get there or adding wasabi to his new mafia boss drink. It was definitely actions of someone looking for trouble

Well people come to MLD mostly if they want to share how much they love or hate something so its not surprising that comment are mostly positive after 1 ep. Personally i don't think this show will cross 8.0 score barrier. It's too plain
Exactly. I don't understand why are ppl even questioning that
Because he is adult who is responsible for his younger brother, that should make him grow up faster. But he who needed to be more responsible than his peers for years - Don't seems to understand - Don't piss mafia boss who can kill you at any moment?
god ep 5 was excruciating to watch, 40 minutes of people dancing to royalty free club music and all the actual…
They were kinda my favorite from the start.... Ram and Lukchub storyline is kinda meh .... it's like lukchub added love potion to Ram food and now wait to see how effective it was...
