Yaoi VS Reality

Let's all be honest here! If yaoi scenes really do happen in real life there'll be chaos, tears and blood everywhere. Let me list you the common scenarios in BL manga that will undoubtedly get a different response in real life.

1. Blackmail-Rape-Love
       

Now tell me, who doesn't like Hidoku Shinaide?! Because this brilliant manga deserves all the love it is getting! A handsome boy sees his oh-so-genius classmate cheating and decided to blackmail him into having sex with him or else the pictures will be leaked. What the?! Absolutely cute! or not.
The way the artist build each character is amazing. A light -hearted manga with a sexy art to top it off! She made you think that Maya is in love with Nemugasa, hence the blackmailing sex. He wants him for his own. A rebel falling in love with a nerd is one heck of a cute plot. But had this happened in real life, Maya would be branded as a blackmailing-gay-rapist and would be in jail by now. Nemugasa's affection for Maya will be a Psychological effect called Stockholm syndrome. Not so cute anymore isn't it? 

I can give a lot more of popular BL manga with similar theme (Rape). 



2. Teacher-student-relationship
          

One of the biggest NO NO in real world but taboos seem to be everything in yaoi world. Even though Kaede isn't Rintarou's homeroom teacher he is still his tutor which is almost just the same. I can say that this story is absolutely adorable and needs to be read! Gaaaaah. I'm promoting! Well, anyway, Just like in the Hidoku Shinaide, the author did wonderful job on creating such a heartwarmingly cute manga. Kaede's adoration for Rintarou, and Rintarou's innocence is just perfect but in reality Kaede would go straight to jail and will be prohibited to tutor again. 

3. School Sex


What the fuck?! That'll be your first reaction once you've heard someone's had sex in the school premises but we have a lot of that in yaoi manga. Hatsujou Animal characters were even bold enough to have sex at an open field where they can be seen by students from both schools they were attending! Let's not do a reality check because we all know how absurd this is. 

4. Incest

Not even going to lie, Not Equal made my morality waver but I got a hold of it. But then again, made me think once more. "They don't have that father and son relationship anyway, it should be okay, right?" Naaaah, morally, it isn't. "There won't be any fruits from their love making, it should be okay" But... "There won't be any defects because there will be no offsprings" but.. "It is consensual" You have no idea how many times I had this inner thought battle. Anyway, incest mangas usually are so convincing they make you sympathize with the two involved. Or more! but real life situation like this surely won't get as much sympathy, love and support from people around them. Reality bites.

I think it is safe to say that Chinese BL novels are the best kind of BL novels. I'm not saying that Japanese BL novels aren't no good but I'm not saying they're the best either.
On the other hand, I have never read any Korean BL novel (Poor me *__*) I just don't know where to get and read them. So if you know a good one, please let me know!!
Anyway, back to the topic; True Star is one of the most excitingly beautiful BL novels I've read my whole life. It is funny, brilliant and captivating all at once. I was afraid I was going to hate it because it has an almost similar plot with Feng Yu Jiu Tian, but I was wrong. This may be plot-like but it has a different feel. This novel has a mysterious aura, and I am so ready for it. 

The plot is catching and will leave you wanting for more; Too much cliff hanger though. The characters are different from each other, the writer did a great job on building up the personality of each characters. Which character suits which character. The only problem I have with this novel is each chapter has few words. Building a nice plot with a no more than a thousand words can be tricky, so far they are doing a good job, but some other chapters, I find half baked. It is also the reason why the translation is already at chapter 50 but it hasn't made a significant progress at all. 
But all that aside, it is beautiful, and I highly recommend it. 

I'm having a hard time trying to convince myself who I want to pair up with our Tang Feng. We have a huge selection of tachi surrounding him, but I'm still rooting for Charles.

EROMAN came from words ERO and IKEMEN

Hello, It's been FOREVERRRRR since the last time I posted something here on this weird blog but today is the day that I resume from posting non-sense rubbish posts. So anyway lets get straight to it!!


     I never really liked porns that was directed for female viewers *Insert-CoatWest-hetero-film* *Insert-surprise-straight-sex-from-rude-companies.* I don't know the reason but it seem so boring and unrealistic because if I was gonna fap to something, I sure am going to reach for the sizzling hot films rather these absolutely heart meltingly sweet Jesus of porn but girls do work in mysterious ways, they go wet for things that are too sweet, gentle and mellow. (Not ME though) I never even watched any from Silk Labo, The cover itself screams Vagina-Penis-Sex-Only or Gentlest-Vagina-Sex-EVER. and people are still arguing that it was directed for male viewers as well?

    We know that some of these "Gay" porn actors do straight porn also, Coat West actors for example, Sho said he was straight yet still acts for "money". Gay for pay. It is not really a big deal that's why when I saw these actors featured in this documentary I didn't get shocked that these guys were in one or more videos I uploaded. They are definitely good looking, young and in style, what every girls would want their porn actors to look like, not those sleazy old men from stereotypical Japanese porn specially that these porn are made to for female needs.

      I very rarely watch straight porn, either my friend made me watch it or I accidentally found it on my friend's phone. I need to watch same gender porn to get me going even if lesbian porns are not made for lesbian girls.
     I Sometimes feel offended when some surprise hetero sex just slips into my downloaded porn, I edit that shit right away. It was clearly for Bisexuals.
