It tears at my heart. And this is the highest of praise. So #$%ing good

It tears at my heart. I want to cry for him, rail at the world and beat my fists upon it's uncaring heart. And this is the highest complement because it is showing the life of someone who is gay living in society as it stand today, and all the sh*t it throws at him on a daily, nay second-ly (every second) of his existance. It is done SO WELL. SO, if you get angry at him for reaching for a better life, one that doesn't throw him under the bus and stomp on him all day, then go out dressed in drag for a week and then come back and watch this show with newly opened eyes.SPOILER WARNING A guy who is gay accidentally discovers a classmate is a fujoshi and she insists she keeps it a secret but because he knows she feels free to be herself around him, meanwhile he watches her and, like me, is fucjing depressed and angry because she is taking his life with no idea for what it is really like and is totally off about what their lives are like, and the things she imagines with her fujisho friend are digusting with him standing right there. I always thought I want all men to experience objectification, but watching that scene, I Couldn’t bear it. It made me sick as it’s intended to (*all this goes to show how INCREDIBLE this show is). but she is also a strong but ignorant defender of gay rights and repsect and has a strong imagination which helps her enjoy fujoshi, and brings a light into ML’s life, and with her imaginatopn that helps him see the good in the world and her adament defense of gay rights, he can and does feel comforatble around her, but he is stuck in a world that rejects him in every instant, including the FL “I don’t know any gays (hes standing right in fromt of you and your shipping of real people could be harmful whether they’re gay or not because it is objectification and could lead to outing, even falsely, someone). Feels fetishizing, and I’m a stolid BL fan/fujoshi, so this review is me the queer, going through a mid life crisis about my media choices. For me it was a way to imagine your peers as softer people, based on the assumption they would have to be more vulnerable to be with someone of the same gender but also living closer to the female experience and therefore more sympathetic to Fems, but that’s wishful thinking. Anyways, back to the review...But because of having to hide it though every little comment, action, and even thought of those around him stab deeper at the festering wound that can never heal as long as he is gay (For his whole life). I want to be normal after watching his reality, and he wants to be normal to have all the things he wants but could only get in this society if he was straight or denying who he was, so he agrees to go out with her. Maybe he can erase the gay and make his mom happy all at the same time
