Excellent depictions of what real and false support is for a gay couple. I do have one small issue that deals with the existence of "homo DNA". Homosexuals are born that way. There is evidence that it is genetic, but the evidence thus far is inconclusive. At the time this manga was published, the debate still raged on as to whether or not homosexuality is a choice. Advances in hard (biology) and soft (psychology) sciences have at least come to the conclusion that one's sexual orientation is NOT chosen, we are born with it. The choice is made when we opt to repress our innate desires in order to fulfill duty or "fit in" to cultural mores. That choice is still necessary for many men and women across the globe. Which is why, as women and allies, we must be "real" supporters for gay men. Being a fujoshi is something I am proud of, I love this genre. However, my fetish for this genre SHOULD NEVER AND WILL NEVER extend to gay couples in real life. Interfering in a gay relationship for the sake of my fetish is no better or different than the pedophile who harasses children for the sake of their fetish.
