I love how all the first comments on this is asking if it's BL. I don't have to worry if I'll get my question answered or not because we're all here for the same thing. If it's not going to be a BL, at least all the first people to check it out on MDL are asking for the same thing (is it a BL?) One day it will be.
It's disturbing how they refer to heterosexuals as "real men" and Tian as "not a real man" because he's gay. It makes me sick to my stomach. I'm sure some will say it's a historical piece trying to be "historically accurate" But you can be historically accurate and phrase your words differently. And you don't have to perpetuate the worst, most harmful stereotypes of an entire demographic to be "historically accurate" No one would have straight, white teeth, and there are a lot of other shit done and said in history against other minorities, that won't be said here. So you can reinterpret the phrase real/not real man into... say homosexual. decolonization
If Chinese bl are banned how come there are still dramas coming out??
(light spoilers) Things can be a BL or romantic without kissing. For Stay With Me, it was so explicit that they were in a sexual relationship, and there were so many cheek kisses and what could have been on the lips but it was too dark to tell. They are getting by the censors, and there are clear indications to the viewers that they are BL like the white rabbits and the cut sleeves. There is a definite difference between BL and BM. Reunion: The Sound of the Providence is a Bromance. The Untamed, Heaven Official's Blessing, Faraway Wanderers, etc., are BL.
Sorry you had a bad day, Rich. Let's come together and think of a nicer way to say that. A spoiler seems to be something that happens later in the drama and, learning about it before watching the show would change the viewing experience of the people who haven't seen any version of the show - often in a way that decreases the enjoyment or impact of the show. This often leads to sadness or disappointment because this specific event will no longer come as a surprise to them, especially key plot points like break-ups and sex. I'm sorry Violet that you had to experience this. I hope Rich, that your bad day improved, and you are in a place where you can add that spoiler tag. Just clicking edit and adding the word spoiler would be a step up. It happens to everyone.
a whole review for a show you didn’t finish that only focuses on one aspect of the plot you didn’t like..…
Hahaha, people like you exist irl! I've only heard about people like you. I like all my hobbies thank you. What about you? Looks like we both read people's work and take offense. I'd call you a kindred soul. I comment when I feel hurt by something, and hope that other people don't get hurt by it too. Hopefully your job isn't like mine. I work in domestic abuse and sexual and gender based violence. I wouldn't recommend it. Working in it. And experiencing it. Not fun. MC 1 can attest. I hope you felt better after commenting. I know I sure did because I know that other people read it and it got them thinking. I was hoping that it would help people know this wasn't a good depiction of a relationship and to not pursue something similar, but your response works too. Maybe the google algorythms will take your comment to mean my review is popular and bring more people by.
- Bilibili- It’s also not that much on DVD. But I know you may not want to spend money. So, it’s an option.
No! I love it! Thank you! Really. I love getting a lot of information, and I tend to give a lot of information as well. It's always better than not enough information!
