some people still feeling off about men crossdressing as if not a lot of real gays do that? If anything those masc gays that ya'll drool over tends to be the most misogynistic pricks irl compared to the femme ones (not all obviously), why do you think they act masc and want to be only surrounded by other mascs? they even attack those within the same community just coz they hate them acting feminine, and those are just their fellow gays, they act much worse with real women, some even treats females like cockroaches based on how disgusted they claim they are on the opp sex; it's practically the alpha male manosphere but out of the nile.
Also remember that the setting is SKorea, that country despite its progress is still highly homophobic, if they wanted to go out on a date just like how it was presented in this chapter, this is literally the best way to do it- act like a hetero couple. It's just fortunate that the uke is female-passing already. This even reminds of that couple on yt who pulled the same stunt and was so happy being handsy on a date because they looked like a str8 couple and was not drawing any attention outside.
