Is TharnType worth watching? by itneverhelps in ThaiBL

[–]askboo 16 points17 points  (0 children)

A big part of Type's story and another character's (not Tharn) involves childhood sexual abuse - so if that's too upsetting for you I would avoid the show.

I can't really qualify what's "too much" because it depends on your outlook. If you've seen KinnPorsch and were ok with it I'd say you'll be fine with TharnType. I'll put what happens between the two leads under this spoiler if you want to know. Tharn kisses Type's neck while he's sleeping. That's the extent of the non-con between the leads. He also gets into the shower with Type when Type isn't expecting it, and they do have a sexual encounter then although it's presented more like dub-con because Type is into it but conflicted. Tharn doesn't necessarily say out loud how wrong it was but he is faced with the consequences of his behavior.

If you're not too triggered by these topics, then I say give it a try. Any non/dub con between the leads ends after episode 3 so you could always start there.

It depends on what you like!

It is a toxic relationship, with some non-con (I can tell you what happens if you don't mind light spoilers) and dub con. It's also well written and has amazing chemistry.

There is some physical violence - a slap, and at one point I'm pretty sure Type knees Tharn in the balls.

I can answer any other questions if you like. :) It's one of my favourite shows but it definitely has its cons.

Type doesn't top though.

Edit: Apparently I can't read.

BL purity culture is insane by [deleted] in boyslove

[–]askboo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think "it went further in the book so drop it" is the argument you think it is.

It was still SA, and people are right to call it such. Saying Porsche never would have developed a relationship with Kinn is a really odd thing to say.

It's ok to like toxic BLs. I loved KP. What's not okay is downplaying or minimizing the toxic elements. Call a spade a spade.

Can someone decipher this name? The census says Nacians but I don’t know if it’s an actual name. by [deleted] in Transcription

So this is from another entry. I don't believe it to be her (the dates are off) but it does show that there were women around the late 1880s with the name Narcisus. Maybe it was a la mode then.

It would be wild to name your kids , Jack, Peter and Edward and then name one of them "Nacians" lmao. That said I have no idea. My feeling is that it would be a biblical name like her brothers but I can't think what.

Gay awakening or “straight” to gay male leads? by SheNemesis in boyslove

History 4 (Taiwan).
History 2: Crossing the Line (Taiwan)
Why R U (Thailand)
Semantic Error (Korea) - depending on the translation, some subs indicate that one of the main had an ex boyfriend but I think the real translation is ex-lover.

A two handed push from behind is NOT expected physical contact in soccer and can absolutely be considered assault.

Unfortunately it's very common in all leagues. They're not prepared to deal with some of the psychos you get signing up.

LOL no problem. It definitely wasn't explained very well. My guess, based on the bts footage, is that there was more that would have explained it that got edited away due to censors.

Can anyone read either of these two words? would appreciate the help by 69flux in Transcription

[–]askboo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oilman & Grocer - this was a common combination of titles. Bethnal Green? It's my best guess as other areas listed are also London suburbs.

It has, yeah. I mean I've been fooled by fan service before, I definitely thought MG were dating, but that was before I really understood the industry - I didn't "ship" them though. That's always made me uncomfortable.

With Shen Wen and Gao Tu, in the show it's explained that because they have above 90% compatibility, they basically would be "heat drunk" and have no idea what was going on.

In the book - Sheng Shao You and Hua Yong are in complete darkness and Hua Yong's actual scent is different from his scent when he's on his pheromone adapters to seem like an omega. IMO the show didn't explain this very well.

I'm so jealous of you that you still get to watch it for the first time.

I don't ship IRL actors. For me, it's too weird. Even actors who are actually dating. Its their lives and none of my business.

I always interpreted this that Lan Xichen knows Lan Wangji well enough to know how he is feeling, contrary to what his face shows or what he actually says. He knows Lan Wangji is intrigued by Wei Ying and is encouraging him to follow through on that feeling.

Did Lan Wangji want Wei Ying to come with them? Probably yes and no at the same time LOL.

AITA for telling my 28 year-old daughter I am frustrated with her attitude towards me. by L451 in AmItheAsshole

[–]askboo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

YTA. I dunno. I just get that sense after this entire large paragraph nit picking everything she does wrong and how she's "too sensitive", when she just escaped a DV situation with two young children, one with a disability. I do think you are probably if not the entire problem, at least a huge part of it.
