If anything the plot highlights how the Dad essentially exploited his son for money. He marketed his son, as being a girl, and Julian loved the attention from his dad and other film crew along with the clothes. And yet his Dad in real life basically neglected his son, and Julian needed therapy to deal with it all. The mother is upset over what the Dad did to her son, and she's right, as it turns out people were "falling in love" with what was a toddler, like the pervert MC who still is in love with "Cherie". The fact that a teenage Julian was sleeping with the staff or the dad's workplace, men and women also just highlights very skeevy things in yaoi that are played off as a laugh or undermined.
