Same old psychopathic hottie trope, but this one is so poorly done I just had to skip till the latest chapter cos, what the heck is this?
Isn’t bisexuality or bicuriosity about being attracted to both sexes? While Eunsan does seem to be bisexual, I think his encounters with men stem less from genuine attraction and more from a desire to satisfy immediate lust.
Lust involves attraction by definition. I'm not sure what the word "genuine" is meant to do in your comment. There is no queer council around to authenticate the attraction by a kind of scale that proves it has left the straight zone. In fact there is a ton of writing about how patriarchy cultivates gender relations in which men only view women as objects of desire/lust and yet this does not seem to "invalidate" their heterosexuality. (To be fair, some argue that it does lol.)
I get what you mean, but I think the focus is more on motivation than labels. Up to where the story leaves off, his encounters with men seem driven by physical release, not attraction, at least until that cliffhanger where he might actually be developing real feelings for the lead. I think letting characters be who the author intended makes them more layered and complex. The author clearly isn’t afraid of queerness, they’re literally writing a BL webtoon, but it seems they’re exploring it from a different angle. Sexuality can be fluid, and that shift can happen without changing how he’s been written so far.
