It’s rlly sad because so many bl readers just really don’t like lgbtq themes outside of 2 gay dudes getting it on.
omg literally… it’s unfortunately a theme that i see in a lot of comment sections :(
I am sure we all want trans representation, and that would be a good book as well. But i dont think you're understanding the point of this manga at all. A lot of people are not against an MC being trans, that's a weird way to look at someone's opinion that is the opposite on yours. It's not black and white, it's already 2025, they didn't said that the MC isn't trans because they want "2 gay dudes getting it on".
It's because the story is about a gay person who likes feminine things. I think you guys are the one not seeing the bigger picture. Trans lives matter, obviously. But this is a different manga. Not all people who likes girly things wants to be a girl, the same way that not all people who like manly things to be a guy. I am a woman and i like manly things, and i dont like girly things, does that make me want to be a guy? No, it's just preference. And that is what this is about. I could go on, but i think you guys wont read it anymore HAHAHA
i’m not saying the mc IS trans, obviously he’s not because it’s a bl. i was just saying it was disheartening to see people being so transphobic in the comments. i’m trans myself and it’s sad whenever i see people being so against the idea of a trans headcanon just because it’s trans, which i literally see all the time online. it’s called a headcanon for a reason, because it’s personal preference and it’s not actually canon. i get what you’re saying 100% but it is transphobic to say that trans people are the problem in wanting representation and headcanoning characters as trans. i’m not hurting anyone by doing that.
the mc literally said something about how ever since he was young he wanted to be a princess (i haven’t read this in forever but..). to me that sounds like he could be trans and i think it’s fine to think he is or think he’s not but what’s not fine is trying to police that. like god forbid i headcanon a male character as a woman…
i didn’t expect to open the comments and see people being so against the idea of the uke being trans. obviously it’s not JUST because he likes cute things that someone would interpret that he might be a woman but because he literally said that ever since we was a kid he wanted to be a princess. it honestly is sad how many people are against the idea of a trans mc :/
