I hate f*kboi+virgin for different reasons. I'm SICK of people being all 'sex positivity' about men but ignore the fact that they're doing the 'good girl was staying virgin' cliché on the FL! If they were going to be all 'sex positivity is fine' then they need to start using it for both genders! And no, they are NOT doing so in this- it doesn't matter she didn't marry the ML before the sex because she's not actually breaking the cliché, she's going to end up with him! It's still giving her virginity to the man she'll stay with or whatever! It's still demanding purity on women while pretending it's not, but gives some weak and flimsy excuse for men to still get to sleep with multiple people before 'settling down'. If anything, we've got a handful of people in these comments saying 'experienced men are better in bed anyway, blah blah' as if it wouldn't be a good thing if he had still been a virgin. I can't stand people looking down on chaste men (whether by choice or not). No one is a loser for either sleeping around while single or NOT. This should apply to women, too, and I'm tired of it. Don't pretend we should defend the ML sleeping around because of sex positivity but then not notice the obvious misogynistic bull where they have the virgin good girl 'going bad' and giving her virginity to someone before technically promising each other their lives or whatever. I'm not mad he slept around, I'm mad at the stupid repetitive double standards and the way positivity is being twisted.
Good lord. F. BTW I'm not mad at anyone, just maybe giving a few a sharp look. I'm just frustrated at the way these comics twist junk. I love twisted stuff... but not this subtle tricky misogynist junk.
i dont know if you read JUST the first chapter and ran to the comments and read the first fuckass stupid ass comment and was like omg this is definitely like the cliche ass virgin x fuckboy ! BECAUSE ITS NOT. i dont know if you actually read the story and you just didnt comprehend it, but i feel like the plot just went STRAIGHT over your smooth brain. hey, guess what! the story's subverting from the cliche by the way. "sex positivity this sex positivity that..." okay and its defending the ml from SLUTSHAMING?? like not once did anyone complain that the fl stayed a virgin OR NOT. its not like she promised to him when they started sleeping together, you know? she slept with him ON A WHIM. SHE SLEPT WITH HIM because she got cheated on and her emotional reaction to that was to take revenge on her cheater fuckass boyfriend AND TO TAKE AGENCY OF HERSELF.
"It's still giving her virginity to the man she'll stay with or whatever!" DID YOU ACTUALLY NOT READ THE MANHWA. she wanted to try having sex for the first time. and she was scared of STDs. and he GIVES HER HIS TEST RESULTS (which is MUCH BETTER THAN OTHER MEN HELLO???? bar is on the floor but at least bro brought a fucking pillow and a blanket???) and she has sex with him? why? because shes comfortable and she knows shes not gonna get diseases from him okay. shes comfortable because she knows him. THEY'VE BEEN FRIENDS. THEY WERE FRIENDS. shes just trying out sex. shes doing this out of spite and experience. SHE DOESNT EVEN KNOW IF THEY'LL END UP TOGETHER.
"It's still demanding purity on women while pretending it's not, but gives some weak and flimsy excuse for men to still get to sleep with multiple people before 'settling down'." purity????? did it just ROLL OVER YOUR HEAD??? sure she might end up with him only but the point is that SHE SLEPT WITH HIM for a messy ass reason. shes reclaiming her choice and HER BODY by choosing WHO SHE WANTS AS HER SEX PARTNER. and for the men still being able to sleep around before settling down? hey dude, no one said anything about a girl not able to sleep around. sleep around for all i care. every fucking tom dick and harry is criticising the FUCK out of the guy. like they're slutshaming him ACTING LIKE HES APPARENTLY LESS for having experiences. so obviously people are gonna defend him??? no one said anything about the girl. SO OBVIOUSLY NO ONE IS GOING TO BRING HER UP BECAUSE theres nothing wrong???
"I can't stand people looking down on chaste men (whether by choice or not). No one is a loser for either sleeping around while single or NOT." girl you not slick. i know you fucking sneak dissing me. I NEVER LOOKED DOWN ON CHASTE MEN tf. you people LOVEEE oppressing yourselves when no one is oppressing you oh my fucking god. i aint never said men who get no pussy are fucking losers that should just crawl into a hole and die. no i didnt say that. i just said that experienced men are better because you dont have to teach them. AT LEAST MOST OF THEM. some inexperienced men know their shit because they study?? okay good for them. i dont care man. Jessica, this is a fucking opinion.
"Don't pretend we should defend the ML sleeping around because of sex positivity but then not notice the obvious misogynistic bull where they have the virgin good girl 'going bad' and giving her virginity to someone before technically promising each other their lives or whatever." you know what i cant understand this fucking word salad. its so messy you're just EVERYWHERE. anyway because I CAN INFER... let me tell you... youre just fucking wrong at this point. she never once promised herself to him. MATTER OF FACT SHE DIDNT EVEN LOVE HIM?? WHEN THEY SLEPT TOGETHER. so the whole promising each other thing? that shit is out the window. so your point is VOID.
"I'm mad at the stupid repetitive double standards and the way positivity is being twisted." why? what's wrong about defending the ml from being slutshamed? how is being twisted? not every dude is a prince charming. people can have history. fuck who you want dude, the people others sleep with is none of your business. he was sleeping around BEFORE they had this arrangement. theyre not even dating rn. i dont get your point.
and then you talked about misogyny right? how this story misogynistic? it doesn’t romanticize her virginity. it treats it as just part of her story, not her value. youre not actually looking at the nuance of how the story handles those elements. shes a complex character with emotional depth to her. she makes impulsive and stupid decisions out of spite. so no this isnt a normal cliche story with an experienced guy with an inexperienced girl.
but hey THIS WOULDVE BEEN A valid rant if it was actually a MISOGYNISTIC story. next time you wanna talk your talk, you better read the whole manhwa and KEEP IN MIND that the fl and her friend is probably an unreliable narrator because its all hearsay AND THE FACT that this manhwa only has 11 chapters so dont jump the gun so soon.
with love,
shan!
Oh, forgot about this. I skimmed and saw a lot of caps lock and maybe insults. Definitely a teen who's gonna grow into an unhinged hag, so I approve. You'll get there.
Unleash your rants, honey, it's okay <3
And thank you, Etoile, you summarized my point without the unhinged part, so thank you for gettin' it. I agree, it's just expectable, so eh.
I think they were just trying to explain that while their history is a central factor to the story (him sleeping around, her being a virgin) it’s not the main point. It’s character building and it’s not their motivation for sleeping with each other.
She clearly has her own autonomy to choose this for herself, so the story isn’t romanticizing her virginity, or rather—her choice of virginity. Maybe it highlights her inexperience, but at the end of the day—her reason for staying a virgin is something she no longer believes in.
The ML just so happens to be the first guy she sleeps with. Not because of love, not because she thinks she’ll end up with the her friend, but because she felt like she deserved to have fun. That’s not purity.
Well done for everyone’s talking points. I also believe the story isn’t necessarily on par with virginity it’s just that she has it. And that’s all. She’s not a puritan the manwha literally gives us a gist that she’s curious she’s just not into it with people or so she says.
Dohyeon sleeps around yes. He’s had girlfriends in Highschool which is normal. He fooled around in college too okay yes. People do that. He wasn’t with our Protagonist, they were just friends and it was her emotional response to them falling out of their friendship. The manhwa’s direction isn’t to show slutshame onto Dohyeon and isn’t Showing purity on our Protagonist either. They are both freaky. Our protagonist is just emotional about her partner not giving the time to let them both not engage in intercourse. She’s conflicted to try it because of the emotional response (her making herself drunk to cope.) Dohyeon allows that as an outlet. We as viewers only hear the ‘rumors’ and ‘gossip’ from Friends/Classmates in the story. We don’t have a background onto Dohyeon yet! So we should look forward to it. 11 chapters isn’t enough for a full analysis
For goodness sakes, kiddo. That was the joke. It's literally "hun, you're the pot calling the kettle black". A lot of people agree with my point, and arguing about it with people who can't pick up on context but wish to put down *my* reading skills feels... ironic to a comedic degree. The smart folks have already realized that. You'll get there. Have a nice day, tho, hun.
ouhhh mannnn just because theres a bunch of people talking about the same damn thing... don't mean youre right!! also i dont see how its misogyny when its just a girl choosing when to have sex. so what if its the male lead? did he coerce her to have sex? did he force her?dont think so... anyway your argument holds no water so i'd really rethink sending comments thinking youre right when really only one person has agreed with you in this comment section.
also, word of advice?? stop trying to patronise people when it's clear as day that YOU don't get the story!! you just sound real stupid!! but you can stay in your little ignorant bubble!! after all, ignorance is bliss, right? it's okay your word is always right!!
Panda: *you're
Also, I'm the OG poster and didn't want to have to turn off notifications for my own post. I'm not delighted that a handful of people disagreed with me and are seemingly obsessed with telling me about it.
Yes, I'm weird. I'm pointing out that we're all weird. It's especially bizarre that I pointed out being annoyed at the cliché of 'it's acceptable if the man in the story has slept with others, but the girl is almost always a virgin' and... a handful of strangers are like 'no u dum'. Gasp, it's almost like different people have different opinions, and maybe I've gotten more fed up with sexist undertones in practically everything. So I gave my opinion when I saw everyone debating their points. I don't agree in only thinking of sex positivity towards males, but FLs are held to more conservative standards. Women shouldn't have to be a virgin, paired with an experienced man, in almost everything. It's a tale as old as time. It grates on me that the world is still stuck on thinking of women like... commodities. Sure, it's 'just this story'. The problem for me is that there's a blindingly obvious bias for this sort of pairing. I called out that there's a midground between everyone arguing.
I've had a lot of debates with people over what's essentially only a small difference in opinion. I've learned to not take it personally. ...it's just impossible not to poke an angry kid shrieking at me. It reminds me of my niece, always being a bulldog over what she thinks is 'right'. It's precious.
Anyway, y'all have a good one.
Thanks for the correction.
And just so you know, I don't disagree nor agree with what you stated here. You do have a point. But sadly, you commented here - which will have many people going to disagree on you given that it was the trope or the cliche(?) of the story.
Your post could get a lot of positive and or strong feedbacks if posted in the 'general discussions' though. It just doesn't sit well here or on any stories with similar tropes to this.
That's my take on this.
But I don't know.
I guess continue living up to your name...(?)
You're Unhinged Hag, so logically anybody who argues with you is already bound to lose.

I swear, there's so many like this. It looks 'worth it' but the first attempt is awkward or sloppy, it never gains interest, and the story gets abandoned. I wish I had the talent to do some of these myself, but alas, I do not. That man look fine tho
