It's like the guy on right determined to turn the left guy gay. That's the point, a conquest

>>217528144
Yes

>>217528222
does he tickle his prostate just right??

>>217528222
Hapa boy's hole has been quivering since the first time they met, he didn't need to be conquered. They start fucking in literally the first episode to show that it's not about conquering or some will they won't they shit but about if they can ever admit their feelings for another.

>>217528278
What is so good about it? Unironic answers only.

>>217531300
Honestly all of it. Cinematography is kino, incredible love for detail with various mirroring shots throughout the series, cute plot that manages to make the enemy to lovers trope feel fresh, great soundtrack, and talented actors. It’s also only got 6 episodes and is very deliberate with its time, it never overstays its welcome. It just has soul.

>>217531722
how much crust is busted?

>>217531756
There is graphic gay sex in every episode, the only thing you don't see is dongs. Saying this as a gay guy, do NOT watch it if you're not gay or a woman, you are not going to enjoy it, it's not a show that transcends its romance slash fiction genre, it's just very good at what it's doing.

>>217531722
Are you a straight male anon? If so I'll consider giving it a shot. I actually really like good romances I've just hardly seen any gay male ones. I kind of doubt it but are there any cute girls in this?

>>217531722

> incredible love for detail with various mirroring shots throughout the series,

as a straight animu weeb who has enjoyed fapping to yaoi and shonen ai for decades as well as slash I find it hilarious thar normies are only now catching up to the wonders of home lust.

Good, because wokers have been rewriting history to blame homophobia as a white thing, even though irl whites were the first racial group to accept gay marriage in the USA as evidenced by polling numbers (and in exit polls for gay marriage referenda like Prop 8). They're probably seething now.

Back in the days of Queer as Folk, apparently the actors all raced so hard to let everyone know they weren't gay or effeminate irl, that someone made a game of counting how long it took each actor in each interview to mention a "girlfriend" or a manly hobby like football.
Now you have an actor who, even though he's in a gay show, is playing a character who's an aggressive top with a hot female fuckbuddy. And yet in every candid photo he looks like he's going for the submissive bottom twink sugar baby look.
It is funny.

I was about to say confessing your love at a hockey match with the cameras rolling seems pretty chick flick.

Then I remembered that in real life, every single clown who shoves a ring at his girlfriend in a sports stadium, while the captive audience in the bleachers has to clap and cheer as the mascots dance, is male. So you win this one.

>>217536729

>>217532129
Why do western normie-adjacent fujoshi love having one or both of their male leads cuck the other one with a girl? The writer of Brokeback Mountain did the same thing.
Do they all have vicarious cuck fetishes?
Are they all closet AAP bisexuals who want to fantasize trying both girl- and boy-pussy through their male self-insert?

>>217537163
The Russian is bi and having sex with women is actually an experience most gay men have had in their lives

>>217537289
On second thought, I guess it's not always with a girl, though it often is. I'm talking about the cucking, not the gender. It's not like "oh they had a history" before the leads hooked up, it's an ongoing thing throughout the story. Even terrible male romance writers like George Lucas don't have Leia getting regular booty calls from Lando after marrying Han.

>>217537535
It’s part of figuring out what they really want

>>217537535
>>217537703
Cucking is free and easy to write emotional drama and keeps the readers engaged usually since the characters will signal that they're actually thinking of the other one . It's basically free engagement for hack writers

>>217537745
Never change a working trope

>>217538074
I'm not a fan of cucking and NTR unfortunately. It's just sad

>>217538153
Cucking implies that there was a relationship already, which is almost never the case with this trope.

>Make him a bi nigga from a state that's pretty homophobic and make him a high achievement high public presence individual
Fair enough
>Guy is also autistic about catching feelings
>Relatively bad choices to engage in vices to cope
>He's depressed
It's kind of half and half like I said imo, though I guess that's part of the appeal of the show/books

>>217538261

Conquest is not a chase, just notching the belt. There have been a category of men who have sex with men, but resolutely declare they are straight cos it's just ~sport, a physical activity instead of emotion-based. A woman ofc writes cuddling=feelings/attachment, cos this is FOR FEMALE/FUJO GAZE NOT A DOCUMENTARY
