"There's a reason people swarm you when you write things, have you never sat back and actually thought about that?" Your words above.

Oh dear, am I being "rude" to you, dear? Are your fee-fees hurt?" Your words again: "...or was it just the fact that you're a disgusting person????????????" Call me crazy, but that seems pretty damn rude.

Now go outside in the dark and touch your ass or something...

What YOU fail to realize is that I am not concerned with how many comments I leave. I write what and when I want to, and I don't care if you want to denigrate my doing so as attention-seeking or anything else. I enjoy watching shows, even some I hate-watch. I enjoy posting and responding to comments. It doesn't matter to me what you think of that.

And if YOU would scroll down, you'll see that I have NOT been "swarmed" here. Rather, I've had a few convos with people who agreed or discussed things with me. It's only schoolmarms like you who leap in to blast people for things such as daring to notice an actor's looks. What you're trying to do is control and police by intimidation what other people write here. Cuts zero ice with me.

By the way, here you are again, responding to me on your device instead of being outside in the sun, eating grass or something.

Oh gosh, I feel so reprimanded and corrected. I will change my behavior immediately to suit your whims.

I don't have to "justify" anything to you. I explained, because you seem to be a tad slow, the difference between live action fiction and RL, but it's clear you are not equipped to grasp the concept.

Are YOU a fictional character? I'm pretty sure not. Thus, when I spoke of YOUR openings I was indeed referring to the real world. Do you get the difference? No? Well, I can't help you.

The only sense you seem to have is a sense of indignant, self-righteous, preachy outrage. Do you feel I "baited" your rage and you can't control yourself?

As for funny, tell that to the MDLers who often message me about how much they enjoy my comments, specifically because I write things they don't out of fear of being swarmed by wet blankets like you.

And then we get to the basic "touch grass" section of your lame comment, even as you continue to respond to my every comment on YOUR device, indicating a need for YOU to do likewise. Get some self-awareness.

It's "QUEER" Studies, dammit! :D

So people call you "Queer" in the same way they might say "Joe" or "Ella?"
I'm more than twice your age, another thing that makes me cringe, lol I am far older than I ever intended to be. I'm old enough to remember when the acronym was GLBT, not the other way around. I have no idea why Lesbian and Gay have switched places. I think maybe because the sounds flow more easily across the tongue.

I'm very "immature" in several ways, or at least that's what a lot of other people would say. I'm holding on to that part of me as long as I can. Part of the fun of leaving true but snarky comments on MDL is that it is rife with self-righteous do-gooders who love to be outraged. I enjoy poking at them from time to time.

I HAVE cleaned up my use of obscenities and naughty names, though, as those used to get me in trouble here. Now, I work on implying rather that baldly stating my insults. :D

My sense of humor runs from desert-dry to glaringly obvious. I think that post contained some of all of it. I'm certainly serious about how bad the show is.

Taishin is a character, not a real-life person. I was sarcastically referring to Taishin's "moist openings," not the actor's, who is a real person. Are you capable of comprehending that my "moist opening" reasoning exists in the artificial universe of the series, not in the real-life world of the two actors, and thus I was not urging that the actor Iwasi Yoji make use of the actor Koneshi Eito's openings IRL? Or do you already understand that but leaped at the opportunity to brandish your self-righteous purity and lack of a sense of humor?

You seem to have a lot of sex-related hang-ups. It's likely you have moist openings of your own and have made use of those of other people, yes? Actually, it's more likely you're a vestal virgin in a nunnery.

What is the "hate" part? :)

My "btw, are you Queer?" was meant tongue-in-cheek, as obviously your member name makes it clear with every post that you ARE queer.

I don't use "queer" as it has gradually come to be used by young people and many institutions/organizations. I am an old fart and growing up gay myself, "queer" was the gay equivalent of the N-Word. Every time I hear or read it I feel a twinge of the pain I felt hearing it spoken by those around me back then.

I understand the aim is to claim a slur as a positive descriptor and thus rob it of its negative power, but those feelings are deeply ingrained in me and aren't going away. Every time I read "Queer Studies Department" or "Queer community" or "Queer movie," I cringe. I can't imagine a university dubbing its African-American courses as "N****r Studies."

For me, "Gay" is what unites us, or used to, as in "Gay Studies" or "gay-themed films" or "the gay community." To my ear, using "queer" in those contexts sounds political, confrontational, and trendy.

But that's me.

lol For me, that would be "Bad Buddy" or "Nitiman."

Exactly. Neither does the writer, the director, or the actor. It is not believable in the universe of this series that the character Takara, as he is drawn, would be attracted to the character Taishin, as he is drawn.

It's a BL fantasy aimed at neurotic, gay nerds who want to imagine that hot, unattainable studs might one day fall in love with them.

btw, are you Queer?

Oh, well I know that usage, but still don't understand it the way you used it with yes...tf..., so thought maybe you were using the letters as shorthand for something else. Ignore me. :D

Nah...

Answering back to annoy you.

Episode 8

Wow. This series just keeps getting better with each week. Bravo!

And that girl keeps getting more evil each week. Anyone else suspect she's not deaf at all and feigns being so as a means of getting close to Kohei? I hate her.

Good show, all-round.

One metric I use to evaluate the quality of an ongoing BL on a 10-point scale is: "How embarrassed would I be if I were forced to watch this show in the company of one of my close RL friends who doesn't know of my secret BL fetish?"

Takara no Vidro is a 9.5/10 on that scale.

The Thai...thing "Secret Crush On You" is a 10/10.

Oh. I didn't know it was my opinion. I thought it was someone else's.

"we" hahaha I'm just masochist enough to keep coming back to stare at Takara's handsome face.

Takara put a book over his face because he was bored shitless.

"...beauty shaming..." hahaha...that's a new one. Not one person in this thread has shamed anyone for being beautiful. Quite the opposite.

Except that they are insulting his looks because they don't like his looks OR the role he is playing.
