Out of the actors Aoey is not filthy rich. His family probably is, but he is being disowned and it was more or less clarified - in the episode when he went home to that horrid family - that he is now forced to be self-sustainable. And Gene, while his supportive family is better off as well, takes his dream as a writer seriously, it is a part of his identity, and also it is important for him not to be dependent on his family. So it is basically Nubsib alone, who has no stakes. No surprise he is the most irresponsible of them all. But otherwise I agree with most of what you said and that they are still more privileged than the protagonists of Call It What You Want, for instance.

The whole shit was escalated by the picture taken on the beach, but never mind. If it comes to Sib, anything goes.

Knowing that someone wants to have sex with you but he is afraid of doing it due to his inhibitions, hence having him drunk (Not forcing him top drink! He was drinking on his own choice), then achieving him wanting to make consensual sex with you (Xing Si made the first erotic step, people constantly ignore this, because it does not suit the agenda) is called "seduction". It may well be a shceming and morally reprehensible thing to do, but it is anything but sexual assault. It happened to me several times as well.

The problem is people's black and white thinking. It must be all or nothing. Clean-cut, stone sober parties have to sign a certified and preferably notarized statement of consent and submit it to the BL Fan Sex Authorizing Committe in advance before making their strictly vanilla sexual intercourse. Everything else is "sexual assault". IRL sexual interactions are very often in the grey area, with dark nuances and gritty aspects.

In Taiwan it has been handled quite well so far and Taiwanese fans have not taken it very seriously either. It was on the verge of becoming crazy with Sam and Yu from WBL, but even that was mostly coming from mainland Chinese nutjobs.

You're not alone.

The Xia twins will be there. I have seen them in the preview.

I am not talking about the non-rape issue here (Yes, it was not rape, I refuse to put it even in quotation mark), I pointed out the step brother issue alone.

People constantly bitch about this, not just here. If you go over to see the comment section of the Thai series Brothers, it is the same. They did it with History Boundary Crossing and My Bromance too.

It is not only bigoted, but borderline homophobic stance.

Everyone should ask themselves the simple question: if two consenting adults, gay or straight, who are not blood related in any way decide to become a couple and be together who on earth has the right to butt in their business?

"Drunk mean no consent!!"

No matter how many times you hysterical fools wite this down and no matter with how many exclamation marks you are shouting, it is still the most idiotic thing to say in the universe. People have consensual drunk sex every day, that is what happens in bars, night clubs, discos, house parties, etc. Perhaps you should go out more and see the real life. "you cant give consent when drunk so this enthusiastic consent is an illusion." - Jesus Fucking Christ. You either never had sex in your life or you never consumed alcohol, or probably neither.

I never cease to be amazed at your unlimited patience and good faith aimed at the unthinking, I am totally lacking in both.

But all your noble efforts are wasted on the unworthy. They are not listening. It is been long weeks now, people begged them to re-watch that bloody scene, it has been analyzed endlessly, but they don't care. They just love hating, simple as that. From the preview it is 100% we are approaching a happy end for both MCs, so it is better to prepare for an avalanche of apoplectic members of the BL Sex Authorizing Committee.

The difference was explained several times and those with more than one brain cells certainly grasp it.

Sib had more lies, unreasonable, scheming and mischievous acts and disregard for others in one episode than Aoey in the whole show. But if it comes to Sib, anything goes, because he is the dashing and irresistible Top, the ML on white horse. The whole shit was escalated by the picture taken at the beach of Gene and Sib together, so Aoey's livestream did not change the situation a jot, but people eagerly shift the blame onto the latter, just to distract the attention from Sib being at fault in the first place. Cognitive dissonance, basket case.

Another array of indoctrinating, patronizing spinsters with all the wokey buzzwords available in the book coming over here to lecture viewers. Cannot we ever get rid off these tight-arsed, self-proclaimed BL Torquemadas?

In case someone else misssed it like me, there is one more additional scene after the end credits of episode 6, where Tee tries to reach Bas over the phone.

He was very good in Oxygen, but in CIWYW he is just stunning. That performance should get him an award.

I did not mean you. I mean the person you asked, who usually just leaves brief negative comments like this above and seldom bothers to elaborate.

Apart from some technical issues due to its obvious low budget, this is one of the most incisive, intellgently written and skillfully directed pieces I have seen recently, with generally excellent performances, particularly by Michael and Daniel. Michael should get an award for this. Even the cinematography is smooth and skilled, considering its budget.

I have never ever read anything else from this user but brief lambasting, literally everywhere.
