guy magnet attracts guys

disturbing, but hooked me early on, had to see it through
very unique style, this work has stayed with me for quite a while

He thinks he's gay but can't be certain. Earlier, he dated a girl and couldn't bring himself to have sex with her, humiliating her in the process. There's something wrong with how he wants sex. Story of both coming to terms with trauma. The treatment of this high school material benefits from how upfront it is about how contradictory its protagonists are. At times cruel and other times funny, explores the confusion and awkwardness of fumbling firsts.

It so cute, so pure. Enjoyed reading the author's note about fitting in her personal likes: tatami mats and scruffy men. Explains a lot. A story about life-affirming experiences and love changes two young men's lives for the better.
