@vex_valor I'm so pissed when people say marriage is heteronormative
There's nothing heteronormative about wanting to "solidify" your relationship whether it's for benefits or just because this means a lot to you
We're losing the plot here a lil bit! Gay marriage is worth fighting for!
Gay marriage is not legal in Japan right now. A lot of BL coming out right now include weddings because they are fighting for it to be legalized. Either through awareness and/or donating some of the proceeds to fight for the cause. This is literally an LGBT rights movement there.
I hate people that praise one BL by shading others for not being queer enough.
Many of the BLs I’ve been reading are about gay men’s struggles with their sexuality, I can’t relate to the gay part but a lot of the feelings about being queer align with my own.
[Japan] I've worked funerals for years.
Today's was for a man who loved another man for 30 years.
His partner wept harder than anyone.
But no one there called him family.
At the front sat the family: a nephew
who hadn't visited in a decade.
His partner sat in the back, as "a friend."
Everything the man left goes to blood relatives.
After 30 years, his partner inherits nothing.
In your country, this story changed the law.
Here, he's still a stranger at his partner's grave.
love how different hirose's eyes when he talk to his other male friend vs. with nakamura. he always soften his gaze for nakamura
did hirose even realize that? 😭
genuinely such a well written story that features an insanely loveable protagonist. I can't wait to see how the anime will depict all of the eerie visuals that the manga adaptation brought forth!
