can i just say the weird standard people try and hold queer romcoms(and queer media but) in general is so weird

its always "its too juvenile" and "its too wholesome" but then its "this is too sexualised" and apparently queer ppl having sex scenes is automatically "fetishizing". Always "too corny" "too angsty" and dont get me started on people who act like something has to be bad representation just because they didn't like it

"its cringey" it is a fucking romcom bro. like half of the appeal of a romcom is the kinda cringey fun of it all . not your thing? fine go watch something that is,not being the audience for something is fine but god stop acting like one romcom is gonna dismantle the movement for queer rights.

#Since this keeps getting notes pls read:it's not about NOT judging queer media #also but im a cheerleader did not be the campiest lil 90s movie ever FOR SOME OF YOU TO ACT LIKE YOURE BETTER THAN A ROMCOM.#red white and royal blue #crush(2022)#heartstopper #bottoms movie #lgbtq+#gay #lesbian #lgbtq media #first kill #willow 2022 #yellowjackets #WLW ESPECIALLY #but yeah #posts of mine i like #bottoms 2023 #thai bl

This Is A Gay Asian Rant About BL Comments Made By Some Queer Westerners I See Sometimes.

So you know of those gays (usually white) that made dumb tiktok dancing to list of countries that legalized same sex marriage and list of countries that discriminate against LGBTQIA+ poeple as a way to say something racist. yeah i kinda got the same vibes from some comments regard how asian BL is homophobic just cause they don't live up to queer western standard. look, i'm not saying that some BLs and their creators don't deserve criticism regard how they capitalized/exploited queerness for an easy cash grab.

But people need to understand that Asian countries despite recent progress are still very much culturally conservatives. so when people says that thai bl is homophobic and all the characters looks like bunch of straight guys, which is true for some olders thai BLs i'm not gonna denied that. but after all this time and newer BLs generally being very queer and most of creators being out queer themself and poeple still making these comments, i'm annoyed.

And don't get me start on the actors. you don't know them! why are you making assumption and calling them queerbaiter just cause they acts in bl. like maybe they're straight, maybe they're not but what they're definitely doing is making queer content for you know, queer people here. so when you made halfass comments about their sexuality what do you think that made other queer people who still in the closet feels. and when you add the nationality to that, "these thai bl pair are this and that, this korean actor is so ungrateful for his bl past", etc. when our societies are still very much still in progress regard LGBTQIA+ acceptance. it make us living here feels fucking awful like somehow we're lesser queer than people in the west just cause we don't have citibank at pride or some shit.

And the shittiest in my humbled opinion are comments regard censored chinese bls. people do know like, that the creators making these bls are risking their livelihoods for this. that these shows getting make at all are miracles. yes it sucked that they're censored but they're still very much queer shows making by queer people who want to express thier queerness despite the chinese government being the chinese government. when people dimissing these shows as not belonging in queer media, you're also dimissing their creators and audiences as not belonging in the community.

Look what i want to say is that we're trying our best over here, and maybe our best are not up to your liking. the ways we talk and express our queerness maybe still can be perceived as problematic by western queer standard. but these media are our house and you're the guests. for people aren't shitty we appreciated that you're here engaging and loving our media, this is your home too and you're welcome in it. i can speak for myself that i very much love being here on tumblr and interacting with people from all over the world who love BL. but for people who are being shitty sometimes about asian bl.

YOU'RE THE GUESTS, BEHAVE!

“we sent yuan away so his feelings could subside” you sent him to gay rizz bootcamp is what you did

#watching this as it airs week to week is torture but it also means more free time to be generate shitposts and be unwell #i like to think that the new york gays welcomed him with open arms #'oh he learned about the 21-day habit theory at college' that man majored in IT or game design.#if he studied psychology he would know that theory is a busted myth #the queer club on the other hand was just throwing ideas at him left and right #mutuals feel free to ignore this one #unknown 2024 #unknown the series #taiwanese bl #CJ's edits

You have a lot of great meta posts, are they catalogued anywhere? Or any specific tags I should look at? I've been looking through your "history of BL" and "BL tropes" so far. Fantastic work BTW

Meta Post of My BL Master Posts!

Thank you so much! I keep a spreadsheet offline (because I have a spreadsheet for everything, I LOVE THEM with a pure untainted devotion), but that's not super helpful for you, now is it? A lot of my master posts have links to other posts in them or at the bottom so I hope you’ll forgive me for just directing you mostly at those? That way, if you’re intersted, the rabbit hole awaits. Ready? Here we go!

because I, weirdly, get these ones a lot:

this is basically what I do

I hold multiple citizenships & passports

currently I lurk on the left coast of the USA

I travel a lot for work & pleasure, so when I vanish it’s just I lost internet access (I’m not dead yet)

my (too many) degrees are in (among other things) anthropology + maths (focus on stats, history of pop culture, etc... look, it made sense at the time and it seems to have worked out for me)

my gender is: working in theory terrible in practice, I genuinely do not care what you wanna call me

sexually I identify as omnivorous

I swear a lot and I will eat absolutely anything, including very spicy food NO LIMITS!

i am a fan of Kpop but i consider myself a dilettante and not active in that fandom (TOO CRAZY) if you push me though: GOT7 (b. Jinyoung bw. Jay B) and BTOB (b. Minhyuk) more here, that said if your blog is too Kpop heavy I won’t follow back (sorry, I’m here for the BL)

I tend to be under pretty heavy NDAs so due to that + my queerness and involvement in kink I’m highly protective of my own safety, location, and IRL identity, so that’s all ya get.
