#boyfriends webtoon
I'm honestly kind of amazed that this is a hot take or anything but if you genuinely believe that the Boyfriends Webtoon is "harmful fetishism of gay men," you have swallowed a transphobic smear campaign hook, line and sinker. Like, gee, I wonder why the runaway success webcomic that's a happy slice-of-life about a polyamorous gay relationship where one of the guys is trans is being held up as the Worst Thing That Exists since it was showcased in an ad campaign? Can't be because the author is a trans man. Why on Earth would people who hate trans men accuse one of "fetishizing gay men" by creating gay smut? Of course not, obviously they're allies, considering they cannot be bothered to gender Refrainbow correctly 90% of the time they talk about him. Obviously it's just harmless joshing around when most of the comments under a post talking about it are variations on "this comic makes me wanna commit so many hate crimes." It's just venting, y'all! It's not the right representation! And you know what happens when you find media that doesn't appeal specifically to you, right? You demonize the sexuality of a trans man from Indonesia! Because that's how you get more queer comics.

"we need weirder queers" yall can't even handle when a gay trans man living in a country that doesn't support his existence makes a silly little comic about his fantasies because it's "unrealistic" and "sexualizes gay men"

you know what im tired of the negativity with everything i like im gonna make positive posts about them instead
first up:
Boyfriends Webtoon
i love this comic man. sometimes i don’t t feel like reading a super unique artistic piece with a super detailed and meaningful story, i just want something to keep my mind off the depressing news. i don’t understand all the hate so heres some of my fave things about it.
simple plot and simple characters - its so easy to understand everyone and super refreshing from convoluted stories. i don’t have to think hard about anything and i still get the full story. sure it relies on tropes but all stories have tropes. its a writing tool not the end of the world
great art - the art may not be the new van gogh or mona lisa but thats a good thing. its super easy on the eyes and gives the happy carefree vibes i definitely need after a long day. i have issues recognising things and have a colour sensitivity and this comic is one if the few i have no issues with
its comforting - sometimes people forget that what they don’t like isn’t universal. i like this comic. its like a warm blanket during a depressing day. it might bot be for you but it doesn’t give an excuse to hate ppl who like it. don’t like, don’t read
its silly - its a slice of life about 4 boyfriends navigating their polyam relationship. what else would it be. the characters may not feel real but thats ok cuz its a story. its not real and it doesn’t have to be real.
their relationship is adorable - they do seem to love eachother and is probably the healthiest gay polyam relationship i’ve seen in a while. too much of media is about how hard polyam relationships are and mostly straight ones too. its nice to see something i can relate to
just let ppl enjoy what they like. fight with me in the notes idc

Boyfriends webtoon drama is so funny/infuriating because most of the people who like it are like "This comic is so cute, I find the characters attractive, I'm a gay poly man and this comic makes me feel seen." And the majority of haters are like "DIE DIE DIE I HOPE REFRAINBOW DIES I HOPE EVERYONE WHO LIKES THE COMIC DIES I HOPE THE CHARACTERS BREAK UP AND BURN IN HELL AND FALL INTO A MEAT GRINDER"
And the second group expects me to believe that the first group is homophobic and the second group are the LGBTQ defenders
