Like the reboot from 2019, which is SO much better in every way. There are a shitton of better ones out there. Reunited as one of the side couples in "2gether" (2020), they don't get all that much time, but the connection is still there. Even if the acting is uneven, the guys have a great connection and are very, very sweet together. What it DOES have, is great and sweet chemistry between the quite charming leads. (The random and illogical writing is what makes it weird.) I was aware of this before I watched it, due to reviews I had read-but I still found it confusing). There is a confusing flashback part, which is woven in in a very strange way, and can be quite unclear until you catch up on what's going on. I agree with the wide-spread criticism-this definitely has a lot of flaws-especially obvious in the technical department and the, at times, very weird writing-but I don't consider it any worse than many other titles in the bunch of run-of-the-mill BL that has been released in Thailand since the start of the boom.Īt times the story in itself is very nice, at times it's a jumbled mess of. I don't quite get why this drama is bashed harder than other of its type. "Gay theme" and BL are two different things.īut as long as one can tell fantasy from reality-it's a convenient word. Note To make it simple I'll just call BL, even if it would be more correct to say stories about guys who are attracted to guys. Don't compare cinematic masterpieces with light-hearted romcoms. My ratings are pretty harsh at times, but I judge by quality, not by how much I like/dislike it.
*Adding titles and comments every now and then.* ***(Titles with (only) Trans characters not included-a Trans woman who loves men is straight, not gay.Ĭrossdressing has nothing to do with gender identity so titles with cross-dressing guys who like guys included.īromance if there is an implication that it is/will go beyond friendship)*** List will only contain titles in which BL/Gay/Male Bi couples/characters/themes, have at least a somewhat prominent role. Also see my separate lists for each country. It’s the definition of “no strings attached”.BL/Gay themes movies, dramas and short movies from Thailand.įor a comprehensive list of Asian (China including Taiwan and Hong Kong), Japan, South Korea and Thailand see my huge list (793 titles and counting) for Asian BL/Gay movies and dramas. I was initially sceptical, but this arrangement seems to work for everyone: the wife knows she has no competition from another woman the husband knows he does not want a life with another man. As one man told me: “Sex with another man is not being unfaithful to my wife – it’s just fulfilling my needs and desires.” I’ve even encountered straight men who have “male-on-male playdates” with their wives’ blessing. There is little, or nothing, in the way of guilt. The advent of the internet has made these discreet, anonymous encounters with curious men incredibly easy. I’m in an open marriage with another man, so I’m not interested in falling in love. I prefer sex with straight men because they don’t want romance with gay men there’s always the possibility that they could get the wrong end of the stick and want something more. I should know I’ve been sleeping with them since my schooldays. T here have always been men who have sex with other men, but don’t consider themselves gay or even bisexual.
