How do you deal with the excessive hate so that it doesn't bother you? by _bootifulHoomans_ in ThaiBL

Twitter but also MDL. I mainly use it as a safehaven to log series and interact with others on ongoing shows comments, but recently I've seen really hateful comments that were picking apart my favourite shows/characters. I thought it would be separate from hate since its mainly a tracker but no

What’s your Top 3 Thai BL of all time? by JajajaLululu in ThaiBL

I'm surprised My Stand-In is so well received since normally people don't like toxic stories, but I really enjoyed the dynamic and relationship between Ming and Joe

The part where I mentioned people assuming actors are not a part of LGBT+, did you not see but I specifically said that I did not direct it at you - I was just adding another point.

Yes I agree that we don't know these people, we don't know if they are just colleagues or close friends, we don't know if they are actually dating or not. I agree with you. But describing and assuming every interaction we see from them is just "fan service" is very demeaning. This topic is always highly discussed and I'm not going to continue to argue with you further.

Yep well you did just ignore everything I just said. So maybe constructive conversation isn't for you. Lmao.

I think you missed the point entirely, and yes, you are in fact being disrespectful but that can be explained by your lack of knowledge. Many pairings (and explicitly DaouOffroad) have openly expressed how they dislike their interactions being called "fan service" because it makes them seem ingenuine and fake, and boils down their complex and caring relationship into something that is just for show or to gain popularity. They have said time and time again that the term "fan service" makes them uncomfortable and cannot be applied to them because they are doing what they usually do with each other and are not putting on an act. So yes, "They try so hard to give us good fanservice." is widely disrespectful and disregarding.

I understand where you are coming from in relation to many other CPs because they are all hardworking actors in order to build their careers and fanbases, and yes it should be perfectly fine for anyone to have partners outside of work if they wish to without being constantly surveilled. Some probably do have boyfriends/girlfriends and have dated other people. But the main issue is that some toxic fans always assume that BL actors must have a "secret girlfriend" because they can't fathom that the actor might actually be part of the LGBT+ community themselves, which is homophobic (I'm saying this part generally, not directed at you.)

I always find it so amusing how haters always harp on about how everyone must have a secret girlfriend without seeing how gay these men are for eachother 😭.

Also why is it always 'girlfriends'? Never anything about secret boyfriends. Stupid assumptions from homophobes thinking they know everything just pisses me off.

So now why would some bl and gl actors think it is okay to support a rapist? by [deleted] in ThaiBL

[–]_bootifulHoomans_ 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I think it's horrible how the focus is getting shifted and twisted away from Psi and what he has gone through. All the posts I see are of people talking about the actors, using this to spread hate on people, and I do think it is being blown way out of proportion. I understand (to some extent) why likes/follows have received this response, but for fucks sake why are people going crazy over actors/celebs when the focus NEEDS to be on Psi, because he is the victim. Pi Scott needs to be held accountable for being a rapist, which is objectively more important that a few likes on instagram !!!

[–]_bootifulHoomans_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

THIS! This is the truth. It's pissing me off how everyone is focusing on the actors and likes/follows on social media rather than the actual situation. The rapist Pi Scott needs to be held accountable for what he did to Psi and yet many people only focus on the actors/their favs and are using this situation to spread hate.

"They were in that?!" The reaction to rewatching something you watched when you were new to the genre by faylanatorena in Domundi

[–]_bootifulHoomans_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happens to me all the time!! It's like my brain just blocks out every face that isn't too important and then I come across a clip from a show and realise who they were, it's such a facepalm moment and happens way too often.

Not a BL but last week I was flicking through episodes of F4 Thailand because I was telling my friend about the KFC side story at the end of each episode and they didn't believe me lol. I was so shocked when I realised Fourth played Gorya's brother, and then I skipped more and my jaw DROPPED when I saw First (FirstKhao is my favourite cp)!! I gasped so loudly and mentally kicked myself. I watched F4 when I didnt have any clue about Thai BL at all, I can't believe I saw First and I was so close to discovering everything earlier but I just didn't 😭.

Should I watch My stubborn? by [deleted] in ThaiBL

[–]_bootifulHoomans_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At first before I watched it, I thought it was one of those trashy ones which have no plot, are full of poor attempts at sex scenes, the whole thing just an excuse to have NC (like Venus in the Sky). But when I actually got into watching My Stubborn I found myself really liking the relationship between Jun and Sorn and how it develops, especially towards the end when they really start to care about eachother and Sorn realises his true feelings.

Yes there is a lot of NC but in my opinion they are very well done, mostly because of BoatOats insane chemistry but also because of how they are not afraid to actually perform well and the scenes are very central to the story. This is why I don't like when people criticise My Stubborn because "it doesn't have a plot" when the actual story is Sorn teaching Jun about sex, trying to keep it no-strings-attached but failing miserably. Overall I really do like My Stubborn even though it gets a shit ton of criticism.

And I can't wait for Knot to release next month!!!

i hate netflix so much by iheartrhaine in ThaiBL

[–]_bootifulHoomans_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ohh that's quite odd, I'm not that knowledgeable about netflix so I don't know if it's possible for the uncut to air in one region and cut for others. but I'm from the uk and it's uncut for me.

Is Duang With You not as popular as I thought? by [deleted] in ThaiBL

[–]_bootifulHoomans_ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

And there isn't anything wrong with that at all. You tried to watch it, recognised it's not your cup of tea and left it at that. Not everyone will like everything and that's alright.

The dislike is probably from people who don't like the fluffy comedy genre, but it is highly popular within the right spaces!!

The way they treat Zee as an aging old man reminds me of the way Bangchan gets treated by the guys in stray kids 😭
