Boy you have a good arguments. I have a different perspective. I think we all agree, the ending sucked. But I think it sucked on purpose. The message is live like its your last and treasure everything and experience. Again, the death of Yu Shi Gu (YSG) was sad but how he died didn't surprise me. Throughout the series, the writer showed where YSG had a problem with paying attention to his surroundings. A few times, YSG was almost hit by a vehicle (I can think of a 3 times, I am sure there were more). I do feel the last 2 episodes of the series could have been spaced better, there was just so much happening but again, that most likely was purposeful too, right? Life can go from being a perfect whirlwind to being almost unbearable in a blink of an eye. I think about that message al ot now, and appreciate it so much more. I didnt think there was the standard kill-your-gays troupe in this series.

On Hoa Tings (HT) parents. I felt like their reaction to HTings relationships was common. Most parents go through stages of grieving when their child comes out. There are a handful of people know who's parents accepted them; most of them were accepting because they already knew. I think the behavior of the parents was fine. I don't think HT parents fully accepted his relationship but respected their son's decision and didnt want to be a barrier to HT happiness. Thats real life. My parents are the same way.

In the first scene of episode 1, Yu mentioned his father going to Japan after his mother. I took that as his mother being Japanese. So I understood why he would speak Japanese.

Please BL gods. Dont let this end with salt, a car accident, or a crazy parent shooting their son. AMEN

Not in my opinion because Karleen is saying she doesn't want to date a bi woman. She respects Pearls choice by referring to as Pearl as bi (which she is). If Karleen was biphobic, she woulsd deny Pearls sexuality altogether. I know its harsh on why Karleen has the preference; past hurts and experience. But, many of us deep down build our own preferences in the same way. The nice thing is, you can still open your heart and see people for who they are and love them of who they are. Labels create barriers a lot of the time.

Thanks for the well wishes to my spouse and I. We appreciate it.

Thank you as well these conversations are so important. If Karleen said something to invalidate Pearls sexuality with a prejudice like; "...you cant like women because you like men". Then yes, that's wrong and is prejudice and I would call that "biphobic". Saying I don't date bi women is different because Karleen validated Pearl by saying she is "bi" (which she is) and that's not prejudice. Thats when its preference for Karleen. Unless I missed it, Karleen never dismissed Pearls sexuality.

Another example, and I will use myself. I consider myself as a femme. A lot of women I would meet wanted to date and/or where attracted to stud/tomboy women. I didnt find that offensive, it was their preference and I respected that. I did marry an amazing woman who historically dated more stud/tomboy women and dated me on a chance. We fell in love and the rest is history.

Thank you. I really do appreciate this conversation. Its so important. Example, if I am attracted to a straight woman (and I have been) and she refuse to date me. I wouldn't call her homophic. I would say thats her preference. Preference could be tied to anything; being hurt, likes and dislikes, etc. I am not saying I agree or disagree with the perspective but I think labeling someone to something that is actually more connected to prejudice than preference, is not fair.

First, watch the show and make and your own. There arent enough lesbian based shows out there. This one is cute. Second, I respect your opinion but I still struggle with "biphopia". Especially, in Karleen's example because its her preference and not anything hateful or from a place of prejudice. I am pretty gay. To me, calling someone "biphobic" is like saying all straight women are homophic and, we know thats not true. We need to be careful with additional labels, there's enough to deal with outside of the community. These labels will create a terrible riple in the community if we aren't careful. I thank you for expressing your thoughts

I think people are being hard on Karleen for having preference. If her preference is to date gay women only, that's her choice. Clearly that preference came from heart break. Respectfully agree or disagree but bashing her isn't fair ( to me).

First. Can we talk about Sora! Wonderful young actress and stole my heart. Literally wanted to put my hands on her mother when she slapped her.

This was a well told story. Not a fantasy where everything is roses; but of emotional struggle, acceptance and growth. Well done, will watch again soon

I don't think anything you said is controversial at all. The majority of us have PTSD over last season. However, the alternate ending along with fan fiction, gives me hope (and dare I say, excitement) for History 4.

Please watch Gameboys. Total game changer.

WOW!!! [end of statement]

I agree. Couldn't have stated it better

I am sorry. I did tag the wrong person. Bless you

@Brianna YOU could always boycott the show. If you have proof of people being anti-gay (please dont confuse anti-gay with preference), then perhaps you can be the person who starts change. I will support that! However, as a lesbian woman, I ask that you not start emotional outrage for something without real proof. Although it comes from a sweet place, we (LGBT+) have enough on our plate right now.
My wife and I actually like the show and look at it as another cute show about being young and in love for the first time.

It's only a challenge if you don't plan.
There will be times where its hard. You are more likely to get through hard if you communicate what is on your heart openly and often.

I have to disagree. Wes is making a play on Cai. Cai doesn't see it because his focus is on Gav.

I dont think Gav was wrong about Wes. He's been trying to communicate to Cai how he feels without hurting Cai's feelings. My hope is Cai makes it clear to Wes that he love Gav and needs him respect their relationship.

Gav is looking for trouble having Terrence in his relationship business. I already see where that mess will go if Gav doesn't stop. Terrence could have talked about the weather but went straight to Gav's relationship problems. What Terrence did is exactly how emotional affairs start. Gav needs to kill that mess immediately. I think you can talk to an ex, as long as there are boundaries.

Side note...anybody else thought Wes was being thirsty?

What did I just watch? That was AMAZING!!!!
One more episode, goodness what are we about to witness.
