eu sabia que o pco era meio fora da casinha e tal mas to realmente em choque como pessoas desse partido sendo abertamente transfóbicos e ainda se acham no direito de achar ruim uma pessoa trans fazer um boletim de ocorrencia contra um caso de transfobia

mind you they have feelings for each other, and it's EXPLICITLY said in the show, it's not "subtext," "left for interpretation," or confirmed by someone outside the show
it’s getting tired now to argue with bromance defenders. we are talking about queer representation in MEDIA and them actually acknowledging is as QUEER. whether the actors themselves are queer or not that’s not the problem here and real people can’t queerbait FOR FUCKS SAKE
what thap and karn had was bromance. that’s what yearning a “friendship” looks like. thap would rather set his murderer free than see his once friend suffer. they have shared so many memories of them together and not had queer undertone. that’s how you represent male friendship.
what are yall not understanding - bromance pairs get promoted the same as bl pairs, get joint brand deals/events/mascots, they do everything literally the same, gain money/benefits while avoiding homophobia, while bl pairs face hate AND get LESS brands/events due to acting in bls
showing male friendships on screen IS important. but bromances are not friendship dramas and they dont explore male friendships, they are censored media that are based of queer relationships without being queer. queerbaiting is not friendship.
right bc bromance pairings are giving us true friendship representation but they get marketed as cps, get shipped by their coworkers and hosts and their shows have obvious romantic undertones but we're crazy for saying they get marketed as bl ships just without kissing
funny how ppl claim bromance isn't harmful when the moment we queer ppl ask for shows that don't queerbait and censor us, we're called pervs/fetishizers/s*x addicts, and actual queer shows are reduced to only p*rn. but bromance? apparently that's pure & beautiful
see the harm?
Bromance is ONLY fun if it’s a show and two guys just happen to have natural chemistry, that is literally what bromance is. Not these teasing borderline BL type of bromances
i actually don't have an issue with the plot of IWTHYH as a queer love story and a platonic friendship co-occurring. i DO have an issue with the concept of bromance pairs who explicitly take friendship roles like this and tease the possibility of romance when there is none.
wintonmax being platonic is NOT what bothers people actually I really find it beautiful how these boys are able to support their grandpa without necessarily relating to the romance of his story, the problem is in gmmtv and nuthong promoting as a couple when they don't do bl
Que pena, tinha tudo pra ser a série mais linda do line up, ainda acho que diferente das outras séries essa tem como pano de fundo uma história queer, então não considero uma serie bromance. Mas acho que o vale pra um tem que valer pra todos, adoro eles mas não concordo com shipp bromance, vindo de ninguém
