Couldn't these pheromone things be about smelling something bad and felling nauseous about it? But like since you really like the other person you start thinking that the smell is kinda good since it's from that person? I mean I like my wife sweat smell, it's bad but I know it's her smell and I just kinda like it.
i think in abo-verse it's more complicated than that , the smell of the pheromones like actually invokes a physical reaction, between omegas an alphas it can be lust inducing or even fear inducing and for alphas and alphas it's like a battle of dominance, but for betas it's probably doesn't even effect their lives bc they're mostly indifferent to them , this specific story doesn't really show much physical reaction, but most abo will show them, like getting panic attacks, being physically surpressed and so on
About 70% of japanese people approve lgbt marriage. In big cities I don't think it would be a problem in the workplace, just like seme said. Okumura being ignored was not because he was gay but because of all this affair thing. I hope people don't paint Japan as this totally homophobic country. Just like any other country there are homophobes but there also allies and lgbt people.
I don't get where people got that the uke is straight. He's obviously a bisexual that can't accept himself. There's lots of them in the real world and unfortunately they make their partners miserable. My wife's bisexual ex lived their whole 8 years together hiding herself, even her mother knew about it but she didn't have the courage to come out to her friends. My wife had to present herself the most feminine because of her, even tho she's actually a butch. In the end that ex cheated on her with her male boss. It's easier to say that the uke is straight than to man up that there are horrible bisexual people (as any other sexuality or gender).
I don't know. I really prefer when BL show non con and we can obviously see it's abuse. There was this story in which a guy said I think on reddit that he was having sex with his wife and she asked for him to stop and he didn't (there was more to the story but that's the gist). And I wonder what's the difference to uke asking seme to wait/stop and him continuing? Younger people may think this is normal but if the consent is taken even though it was given before, the other person should stop. Sure uke apparently liked it but it gave me a bad taste.
