#fully agree

About anon's post: "Everything is different between TK and members from shippers POV."

Not true. I actually noticed differences in taekook before I even knew shipping was a thing.

"From ordinary people POV, there is no difference on how TK treat the members and how they treat each other."

Obviously many people would disagree. All it takes is an open mind and a non-heteronormative POV to see the differences.

"They are brothers who live together almost all their teenage lives."

Ahh the "brothers" argument. Well, they literally are not brothers. The group are friends and co-workers. Saying taekook are "brothers" is a great excuse to deny a potential romantic relationship. Calling each other "bro" or "family" isn't the same as saying "I view you as my platonic familial brother". Sorry but it's just not. And I can't recall a time JK or Tae have referred to the other singularly as a literal brother. They've generalized the whole group, but not each other specifically.

"They all hug, they all love to slap each other's butt, JK sitting cowboy style on Hobi's lap, Hobi going on top of JK and showering him with kisses on the neck during lights out in one of BV episodes ( what wasss that all about??), JK kissing Jin's leg, Jikook near kiss etc etc."

Yep. And somehow we are still able to see the difference in all of these interactions. If you're not able to see it, then I guess we'll all have to agree to disagree. But there's a reason that when JK/Tae hug, kiss cheeks, etc of the other members, I've never really seen it as anything but goofy, platonic actions. Almost like there's context that we are pulling from.

Like the previous anon said. It's not always about the action, but about context, emotion, past experiences, body language. And honestly, just like some people say that we see taekook as a couple because we want them to (which at least for me isn't true. I just want them to be happy and they seem happy with each other), the same thing can happen to non-shippers. If you want them all to be platonic and hetero enough, then they always will be in your eyes. I literally don't know what to tell you.

Most of us tkkrs aren't these evil people who are trying to twist the narrative about the group and taekook's relationship. We aren't trying to put words in their mouth or make huge assumptions. We aren't trying to harrass them and "out" them. Most of the tkkrs I know personally all are just on board with supporting the relationship that we see with our own eyes. It's not that deep.
