I think s/he's transgender or non-binary, so not a man exactly
If you watch the entire episode you'll see that it's set in a fictional country where it's obviously illegal to present yourself as any other gender than the one you were assigned at birth. They start by saying that Prince gets a police call after every performance for this reason. We also see the police turning up by the bedside later. So there may be in-story reasons why Prince is not presenting as completely feminine. But it may also be true that they see themselves as both, or neither, but leaning more feminine than masculine. This gender essentialistic thinking is damaging to people who are not trans or nonbinary as well, since there is a huge variation naturally and people are being questioned and harrassed about their gender even when they are cis, simply because people don't think they look the way they "should" look. Who decides if someone is "man" or "woman" enough? If a trans woman is not "woman" enough to be in the ladies' bathroom, what about a trans man? Where are people supposed to go if they don't fit into the traditional gender binary? I am a cis woman and I understand the need for safe spaces for women, but trans women are in fact very unlikely to harass cis women; in fact, the people who are most likely to be harrassed are the trans people themselves. Trans people could in fact be our best allies, but instead the trend has been to alienate them and vilify them, which I personally think is just playing into the hands of the patriarchy.
Imo, in the show SW is primarily using his interactions WZ to try and make CC jealous. When he said he likes him,…
Yes, intention and action. Finding someone else attractive is not cheating, acting on that attraction is. Having intimacy forced on you without your consent is not cheating. Talking to other people and being friendly to them without any other intention is not cheating.
Just saw this on x and it's a positive thing that Revenged Love is the most watched BL that's airing right now…
I just went there to add some positive comments. Let's drown out these toxic entitled posts with supportive and affirmative comments! And let's not get drawn in to fight with the unhinged commenters, that will just add more headache for the poor Gaga admin. Just show them that some of us appreciate them and think it's all good!
I don’t get why people are so shocked that some of us like WS. I like him because he’s so similar to WSW—they’re…
I like him too, he's a great character. But I definitely don't idealise him, like a lot of people seem to do. He's scheming and manipulative and destructive. But people are such face cons lol
I wish some viewers will see the nuances of the situation and not outright take a black and white perspective…
THIS. These characters are all written as very flawed and morally ambiguous to some extent, they're not supposed to be perfect paragons of virtue. And that's what drives the plot—messed up people doing/having done messed up things, not getting the whole picture and jumping to conclusions, forced by circumstances to act in less than optimal ways, but also connecting, growing, adjusting, trying to do right, just like people in real life (but a bit larger than life). Even the least toxic of the characters, WSW's mother, makes problematic decisions when she decides to withhold something hugely important from her son. It kind of baffles me when people idealise them, because they're not *meant* to be idealised. If you do, you've misunderstood the way this story is written and told.
I just dont understand why they all have a problem with Wang Shuo getting a couple extra minutes in the last couple…
Those people just want a lot of fanservice, they don't care at all about plot or storytelling or the narrative structure. Which is what the rest of us love about RL.
Sorry a bromance just because there are no NC scenes? its obvious they are still intime together, You know they…
There was even a quick kiss in SWM! During the blackout in the classroom, Wu Bi stole a kiss from Su Yu. We didn't get to see it fully but it definitely happened, everyone else in the classroom heard it, they just didn't know who it was.
