A Must Read
So glad @waitmyturtles brought my attention to this Teen Vogue article about purity culture. This is the start to a very good conversation about queer sex on screen, and as your resident “writing academic papers about sex in Only Friends” enthusiast I say everyone who watches queer media and BLs specifically should read this.

top 5 NC scenes 😎
Hi Kali! Top 5 NC scenes of 2023!
Ritsu fucking Masumi's Brains out in The End of the World With You. Honestly all of their love scenes were insanely good. Ritsu really put the business on Masumi every single time and he knew he was hitting all of Masumi's sweet spots. He was dipping and flipping Masumi every chance he got. Ritsu had Masumi gasping and moaning through the entirety short lil relationship.
Babe getting fucked on the locker room floor in Pit Babe. Most recently in Pit Babe CharlieBabe shared a magical, adrenaline filled romp in the X-Hunter locker room and it was so damn good. Babe was thoroughly enjoying being railed by his best boy and I was in desperate need of that.
LomNuea's wild romp before Lom marries Yiwa in Wedding Plan. This scene really showed me that Namnuea was not shy about sex and he was in fact very vocal and taunting. He was so playful and he told Sailom exactly what he wanted. 10/10.
Nail RIDING him in For Him. NailHim's first time was INSANE. We got a lil blowjob action. Him railed Nail on a table and then Nail rode Him like an unlicensed cowboy and I enjoyed every bit of it.
Alex and Henry's night in Paris from Red White and Royal Blue. This is not a BL but it is queer so I think it should count a little bit. FirstPrince's night in Paris was bonkers. I loved how shy Alex was and how Henry volunteered to take the reigns. Loved how Henry's hands guided Alex inside of him and I was BLOWN away by his facial expressions. It was a treat.
ASK ME MY TOP 5 BL ANYTHING OF 2023

There's nothing quite like the subtype of "enemies"-to-lovers that consists of character 1 existing and character 2 screaming into a metaphorical pillow about definitely, totally, completely hating character 1 and, thus, having perfectly normal reasons to rant for two paragraphs how they're so infuriatingly perfect and good and kind and handsome and ugh they can't be real so let's go prove that they're not (oh shit oh fuck is this love)

BTS of #RWRBMovie: receiving line
ML via HELLO Magazine:
Matthew reveals that their first meeting on-screen was originally going to be in front of the cake, before he realized the audience would need more context.
"The initial meeting on screen was when they met up in front of the cake but I realized watching the film that I needed to introduce and create a sense of animosity between them earlier and so that's how the receiving line scene came about," shares Matthew. These additional scenes were then completed in January 2023.
The receiving line scene is also a wonderful example of the wildness Taylor brings to the screen as Alex, something that Matthew says he never needed to coach Taylor on.
"Taylor brought a lot of that chaotic energy himself from the beginning, but what was remarkable was that as I was working with Taylor, I started to see that this actually is not who he is; Taylor in reality, while a very gregarious, open and warm person is quieter, and sometimes a little shyer – very much not Alex."
