i mean i've always watched thai bls i think my first one was 2moons when it first aired and since then i tried to watch every thai bl i came across with because i needed something gay to watch in order to understand what i was feeling dealing with my sexuality and i know that thai bls are not very good for this kind of purpose but i think in general we've grown up with something missing in the way media potrays queerness and in my formative years bls where one of the few things that came closer the most to see queer people on screen + of course some very obscure coming of age movies or books or tv shows but it was pretty difficult to find any and also that were diverse in terms of gender and sexuality and culture that's why i find thai bls in general to be very important to me and that's why i keep watching them even tho they're bad and i keep trying to find actually good ones to watch

what i'm trying to say is that since watching 2moons i continued watching bls and i watched some good ones some decent ones and some really bad ones and also there are so many that i dropped and THEN i told sunset about you came to me and i can't even begin to describe what i felt watching it and what kind of spell it had on me and since then it became a blueprint for me and i guess it really changed the way i pick shows to watch in general now and i have to say that i really think that the success of itsay shaped the way creators deal with working on bls now and after itsay even tho i continued watching bls i lowkey became very demanding on what i wanted to see in a bl and i started watching less of them because i think that itsay was the one that made me realize that i wanted to watch bls that were made for gay people and not mostly for the female heterosexual audience

bad buddy was the first bl after itsay that had me feeling all sort of things to the point where i came back on tumblr i started writing posts analyzing things from the show and i even rewatched the episodes so many times while it still aired and i came back to the period in my life where watching tv shows still made me feel something like feeling attached to a story and its characters and i think that bad buddy gave me the push to watch more and more on going bls and most of them had me feeling the same way and i think that's because as i said earlier something is shifting in the way thailand is been producing bls now i feel that even the most normal bl set in university or in high school gained that kind of new depth that itsay introduced i feel that shows now really have plots and things to follow and they became really interesting and really for queer people and in order for queer people to finally consume something that we all have seen so many times potrayed between heterosexual people this time being potrayed between people like us instead

#Queercode: when cartoon villains are portrayed as queer, gay, gender bending, or transgender in some way.

It’s a way to associate these 4 things (and more) as evil.
