Terrible. Barely made it through the first episode, but I did so I would feel fully qualified to drop this mess.…
"... pretty much every male is gay"
Pretty much everyone identifies as "straight" in "straight" stories. Why wouldn't the opposite be depicted? Because that would be unrealistic?
Fiction is partly unrealistic. It is a species of inconsistent, exaggerated writing for which inconsistency and exaggeration need not be a flaw. All characters could be gay, as much as they could be demons, angels, ghosts, werewolves, vampires, zombies, psychics, etc
A 100% realistic "fiction" would be a documentary, not a fiction. Let us not bemoan this quality of fiction as a curse that has beset us, when it has the ability to bless us
Noone can continue for long to exist sanely under conditions of a reality structured to privilege "straight" identifying people. A gay-only BL is a better world unto itself, and in it I take refuge
Cho Hyun Min (Lee Jun) was not wrong. "Love" is an addiction; a chemical concoction of dopamine, oxytocin, and related neurotransmitters. The sensation triggers the same pleasure receptors as food, music or drugs. It doesn't exist independent of the human mind
It exists subjectively and adds a seeing to the eye. The lover sees in their beloved object charms which all others cannot see. To these others, the lover (or love) is blind
Confounded as to the perplexing, blind aspects of this sensation, some people fear its non-negligible vulnerability to betrayal. They prefer singlehood
That's not to say Cho Han Gyeol (Haram) was wrong. "Love" transcends thought. It is a daring plunge into the experience of union. This sensation of heightened vitality and potency fills two men or two women with joy; healing the wounds that time did not heal
I don't like when Idols act in a BL, they give dead vibes and kisses! 😫
It takes a great deal of bravery for an idol to play gay roles. Their will to rebel against society, to eat the fruit of a love so undervalued, is good not through its efficacy to attain any intended end, but through its willing
The will to play gay roles is to be estimated far higher than what could be brought about by it in favor of any inclination. The idols will never learn to swim for new horizons, if they do not try, fail and lose sight of the shore. The day they learn will be the day we get the kisses we have been waiting for
he told off the shippers to wake up that its not real, some shippers are toxic asf so i understand why he had…
We understand that our ships are fictional off-stage. They aim at no higher purpose than amusement
Shipping is an art that celebrates a secondary world spread out around us. The secondary world is a bewildering, stupendous dream that mirrors the primary one. Its job is to dismantle heteronormativity; to comfort the disturbed (shippers) and disturb the comfortable (anti-shippers)
This art is not for everybody. It's for those willing to see the romantic chemistry between two men or two women
And jaechan and seoham's age gap is even worse, because jaechan was still 19 while they were filming, and Seoham…
Physical maturity can be attained at a chronological age of 18, 20, or 25 years. A 19 year old is a legal adult who has reached the age of majority. He has the ability to self-limit, resolve dilemmas, endure adversity, drive, vote or date a 27 year old man
"Low-income girls and women are told to use the soles of their shoes as makeshift pads-" "Aren't you too old to be talking about menstruation?"
A woman is never "too old" for breaking the silence around menstruation
A woman who reached menopause knows from first-hand experience that menstrual-related symptoms, the irritability, cramps, nausea, etc, mess with our heads; intensifying the need for a more supportive environment. She has every right to worry about the lack of access to menstrual products and hygiene facilities!
Just want to add: and please allow them to date not that they need to ask any fans for permission to do that but…
It is "selfish" for celebrities to want everyone to like them
"Fans like that should A) face criminal fines/jail time ..."
You dictate how people feel about celebrities; legally threatening them into following your professed standards and breaching their "freedom" to hold opinions without legal interference, as offensive as they may be to you or celebrities
You have, by mismatch between your pronouncements and actions, caught yourselves performing the very same actions your criticize
You are worse than the people who dictate how celebrities "live" their "lives"
The mass media make the "private lives" of celebrities public. What celebrities do off-stage is not "private." The public can freak out or negatively respond to it
This has to be one of the most misinformed and pointless post I've seen her. Your little story about you being…
What evidence? A postmortem examination should always be thorough and comprehensive, approaching these sudden and unexpected instances with a degree of suspicion of possible but hidden etiological factors. The reason may be masked by the police "findings"
Ask yourselves why you seek no further information beyond your biases. You either are unaware of or have a lax attitude toward the medicolegal ramifications and significance of an autopsy report. No autopsy was performed. It would be irresponsible to conclude that it was "suicide"
You know, many suiciders don’t leave a suicide note (data says that only 25-30% do). I don’t know what happened,…
Have you ever lost someone to suicide? It's one of the most unpleasant experiences. The bereaved are at a higher risk of developing major depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, and suicidal behaviors than the person who's gone
I have nothing against suicide. I have something against leaving without an explanation. The majority of us have explained ourselves to our loved ones. The 70% must have suggested or insinuated that they feel empty, hopeless, or suicidal at least once
There's no way it was "suicide." Tell me it wasn't. I've been suicidal for years, and I would have left a letter behind to thank my loved ones. I would have told them that it wasn't their fault, that they did their best for me. How could Moon Bin abandon his boys (ASTRO) and sister like that? They must have been choked with grief. The transformation of his animated body into an inanimate, impermeable corpse will exert a pull on them. As if their other half is missing, their grief will take the form of major depression. Their hearts will shatter and lose pieces every time they are glued back together
It was irresponsible to leave without a goodbye, and more irresponsible to assume it was "suicide." What if it was a condition that went untreated or insufficiently treated?
