Hrt is awesome indeed, it made me look a good ammount younger somehow, I've had a decent ammount of people thinking I'm high school age despite being 22 🙃It’s common to grow out of baby face.
(unfortunate for me. I was way cuter before 14… siiiiiigh. Eh. HRT is a hell of a drug!)

Same!! I've read my fair share of bl but I've always prefered the ones that are about just two silly and awkward lads, where the author is not blatantly making a thirst trap or forcong heteronormative like roles onto the charachters. Just let them be two normal guys with silly antics and (both!) blushy/awkward in front of their crush plsThe fact that Myaa-chan keeps getting more masculine in appearance as time goes on and their relationship deepens as well is a nice difference from old-school BL where one character always looked “cuter”.
There’s a reality to it, and it’s not the main focus, so when it happens it’s WHOA, OKAY, THEN!Yooooo it feels like forever since there was a new chapter!! Sasaki just keeps getting friskier with every passing moment omfg... It's funny how even though this is one of the tamest BLs I've read, my reaction to these types of scenes here is a lot more O_O than any actually graphic manga lol. Idk if I'll ever get used to how far their relationship has come, good for them though!
I'll miss Myaa-chan's iconic flip phone :-( <-guy who is dying to be able to still use one
I'm a 36 year old high school custodian. Students and staff both consistently mistake me for a student if I'm not wearing my badge. Estrogen is a hell of a drug 😅One of my kid’s teachers once thought I was in high school. I was 38.
Part of that is the Ehlers Danlos syndrome, though. A hypermobility type. My skin doesn’t wrinkle, really. I do get stretch marks easily (aaaaall over my upper chest to neck, my thighs and tuchus) and things will eventually, suddenly start to sag like I’m melting. See also: Dick Clark. I’d put money on him having EDS.
It causes a ton of problems (I’ve had arthritis since my 20s, for one) but I’ll spare you.
Point is I look 42 and I am 42. SO IT BEGINS.
Yeah. Twinks exist, but GEEZ things were SOOOO BAAAAD 10 years ago and earlier. Keep improving, on the whole.Same!!

I would like to recommend anyone 'Tashiro-kun, Kimi tte Yatsu wa' and 'Nirameba Koi' for these reasons 😤
I feel you!! There are of course exception (mostly shounen ai but) sadly most korean bl manhwas are so like this, I especially hate when they tag it 'psychological' but the reality is just that ML is a walking red flag 😭Yeah. Twinks exist, but GEEZ things were SOOOO BAAAAD 10 years ago and earlier. Keep improving, on the whole.
Heck, I started reading something within the past 5 years where it seemed ok, if very basic, but The Uke (I said it was basic) just slowly morphs into some kind of little, juicy, onlyfans girl. He literally got shorter and his eyes got bigger.
Shrinking and feminising and I got so weirded out I hid it from my pixiv bookshelf.
A few things in that graveyard…
Most of that has been shunted off into the cursed realm of omegabarfI feel you!! There are of course exception (mostly shounen ai but) sadly most korean bl manhwas are so like this, I especially hate when they tag it 'psychological' but the reality is just that ML is a walking red flag 😭
Blatantly ignoring body anatomy also feels so wrong. Like ''you are already so wet down there lipbite'' can just ruin it so much. I get that its fiction and also convenient but like please sir thats not a p*
Sorry for ranting so much, I very rarely get the chance
Now I have Thin Lizzy in my head, thanks.Thanks for the TL, nice to see the boys are back :,)
Oh! I'm also a lesbian (romantic) but asexual. I read whatever if it looks cute, healthy and comedic lol.Most of that has been shunted off into the cursed realm of omegabarf
unfortunately, that’s still put under BL, despite it not being actually gay. I kept bumping into it because I’m a lesbian parent and was looking for something I could relate to.
The author of THIS has made a concerted effort to add realism to it.
and I kinda gave up on manhwa. Too many times a sweet story has taken a sudden left into nightmare-town. I forgot that I had an account on one of those services. I don’t even remember the name. For every Fanboy and Star, there are six absolutely horrendous things.
read all but the last. Haven’t kept up with pond snail robber.Oh! I'm also a lesbian (romantic) but asexual. I read whatever if it looks cute, healthy and comedic lol.
About manhwas yeah korea is still quite back in time and their 'drama' focused stories bring out just the most frustraiting manhwas full of miscommunication :/
"shounen ai'' rated bl manhwas are the ones I'd recommend, they usually feature lesbian side couples too!
Manhwa Recs:
(Shounen ai) :
Dasadanan
Pond snail robber
The best smell
All about lust (yaoi) - explores forms of love and they also have a canonically asexual charachter
:0 !! I'm so glad to hear that and Oh yes definitely! I adore Hirano and Kagiura's story so much! I also feel that Hirano is aspec, and I love how he's making so much effort to understand Kagi-kun while being so oblivious, and also how understandig Kagi-kun is with Hirano's boundaries ^-^read all but the last. Haven’t kept up with pond snail robber.
You read the Hirano & Kagiura spin-off? I read Hirano as aspec, to the point I think it’s intentional.
My wife is aspec, as is a friend of mine.
Checked with my wife, showing her several chapters and explaining other stuff. She thinks it scans. Maybe you read it differently, but the flash forward bonus chapter in the last Sasamya volume was when I really started thinking he wasn’t just dim.
Needed to see him. Didn’t want any physical contact right then. Kagi knew to respect that, despite clearly wanting some.
Hirano 🤨 at Kagi misspeaking, too. “Hmm? They’re in a relationship and he still has that negative of a reacti-oooooooooooh…”
Apparently, Sasamya ends when Sasaki hits 2nd year, or graduates it. I didn’t grasp it at the time. Hirakagi I don’t know, but I’m pretty sure Hirano didn’t get his own place with the plan of living alone for more than a year.:0 !! I'm so glad to hear that and Oh yes definitely!

In both stories I love and cannot wait for more of the college arc to unfold. They'd mature and become more comfortable with themselves and in their respective relationships! Cannot wait for the domestic moments!
Aw wait really? Damn,, well I'm gonna keep the notifications up for the extras :')Apparently, Sasamya ends when Sasaki hits 2nd year, or graduates it. I didn’t grasp it at the time.

Aspec cuddle power bottom. Sometimes he really wants to be hugged.
Well, it’s six to 18 months of in-world time, and it’s one chapter every 3 months, so who knows how long it’s gonna run for.Aw wait really? Damn,, well I'm gonna keep the notifications up for the extras :')
Yep yep cuddles!! Also I headcanon(?) Hirano's love languages to be acts of service and quality time
