I don’t entirely agree. The kissing was terrible, I’ll grant you that! But, I really enjoyed the character…
You don't have to. When you compare this couple with their looks at each other and the couple of Fake Fact Lips with their looks at each other - the difference is staggering. Yes, they tried, but the 100% refusal to kiss destroys this series. It's a story about desire and longing - and they can't deliver that.
Why would there have been judgement? 400 years ago, gayness and "a third gender" was well accepted...…
I know they stayed independent, but they were influenced nonetheless. And yes the most damning influence came always from the brits, see what it lead to in India and Bangladesh nowadays. The brits as superpower of the time, did put the world into a lot of hurt and for gay people (and woman) in India and Bangladesh the situation is still dire.
And why do Thais mostly westernize the world when they make BLs, especially "historical" pieces is really pissing me off. Yes, it's a fantasy, but again it's just dramatic because of that westernizing for the most part.

I can't complain about the second couples chemistry tho. The lead couple was just ok.
That sounds so unrealistic...
At least it feels really realistic.
