Like something that's not in any way "bad" or "problematic" something that's a non-issue. For me it's sex scenes that feel sterile, idk how to explain it but some sex scenes lack intimacy and feel cold. im not that much of a fan of smut in the first place and i mostly skip them but i can appreciate a well built sex scenes with chemistry and sensuality to it, think sex scenes can be extremely good ways to show the connection between the love interests and good plot devices but honestly a good scenes of the leads just eye fucking each other with good chemistry, sensuality and intimacy is hotter than a lot of sex scenes lately

Im looking for a manhwa where the female lead regressed to undo her wrongdoings to a prince who is like a shadow beast, she set him free but like when took the position of the emperor he got her on captive and she can like go to others peoples dream, on like the last few chapters i remember she entered a dream with a red hair guy, and shes like a daughter of a children of the night thingy. White hair female if i remember correctly.

Ngl but we should start calling out people who are stupid enough to share ss and site on social media
I don't support bullying
But some idiots who are dumb enough to share the illegal translation on social media platforms for likes and comments definitely needed to be called out at least once
If they're that desperate for interaction they can buy it legally
Or just stfu and read quietly

Guys, I need help. Please do give advice.
So my boyfriend went on this outing, and there’s this one girl there. At first, he told me she likes girls, but when I asked again, he said he wasn’t sure and that she probably has a boyfriend. I got curious, so I looked her up on social media — and I found out I’m blocked. I’ve never even met this girl, never talked to her, nothing.

I kept asking my boyfriend what’s between them, and he keeps saying there’s nothing. But my gut is telling me something isn’t right. I don’t know if I’m just being insecure, but it feels weird. Like, why would someone I don’t even know block me? And why does he seem unsure about her all of a sudden?

Please give me advice, because I don’t know if I’m just overthinking or if this is something I should really be worried about.

i know this isn't the right place to ask but please do help

im thinking of getting one really soon since i dont like the way my nose looks i have the money for it and i also found a good doctor but i wanna know yalls experiences and advices

why are people so rude

i wanna know if y'all have any totga majors and your takes on how ure able to handle it cuz u see im in a lil crisis here, psychology was supposed to be my first priority but shi happened and failed to grasp it < / 3

drop y'all fav users in this site cuz i might gotta follow ones wit list of peak bl stories. i trust y'all (i js can't really find the good ones)

So I have a friend that ghosted me bc of their personal reasons (even I don't know what exactly prompted them to) but we were super duper close, as in the type of close where we could tell what each other would say without speaking, looking at each other is enough to say a million gossips etc. I truly valued them and loved them (as a friend) so much, so it broke me when all of it happened, and I didn't even get a reason why. Its beed 6 months. I found out that they ghosted me on their bday when they ignored my art gift and well wishes (though we stopped talking during February I didn't realize it was her ghosting me bc I was also busy) so I didn't get to give them the gift I prepared which was:

A handwritten letter
Collage photos of us
Pins of their fav characters with my art
Printed image of the art of them I made
ALST figure
Haikaveh rings (we planned to cosduo them)

We had so many cosduos planned and I can't imagine cosplaying those characters without them now, because I made a promise. Honestly they were the most in sync friend I've ever had, and even now that I've been hurt and ghosted by them for the 3rd time (this time the permanence is devastating) which dealt a huge blow to my mental health, I still can't seem to let them go and accept that fact standing still.

So my question is should I ask a mutual friend a favor to give the gift to them? If all goes well there's a chance they might talk to me, if it goes awry then maybe I'll get some closure. Thanks for reading I really appreciate it.

Yeah go work now, you better work.

Tell me about characters from anything, any series (movies, TV, anime, manwha) that are the absolute dumbest. Tell me why too.

Can someone tell me what happen that cause mangago ban comments section back then?

If you haven't heard, in the past year, the Chinese government has launched an incredibly aggressive literary crackdown. Over 30 danmei authors—mostly women in their 20s—have been arrested, fined, and imprisoned simply for writing and distributing queer fiction online. Many published through Haitang Literature City, a Taiwan-based site, to avoid mainland censorship. Some are facing up to five years in prison, with one author fined more than the equivalent of $40,000 USD. One of them, Ci Xi, was sentenced to 66 months behind bars. Another, Yun Jian, got 4.5 years. Some made only a few hundred dollars off their writing. This is not “obscenity” enforcement. This is a targeted, ideological attack on women, on queerness, on fiction, and on creative freedom. This is also an economic attack. Chinese officials have coined it "fishing in distant seas," whereby public security officials from one province or city cross into another to pursue “major cases” (with lucrative outcomes) with no clear jurisdictional authority or public safety imperative. They fine these women extraordinary amounts of money that then go into the pockets of corrupt officials. This is the exploitation of vulnerable groups of people and the authoritarian policing of morality. These women, for publishing mostly unprofitable queer stories, are having their futures DESTROYED and their images decimated. There is a very big community and reputation-centered value system in Chinese culture. Now. Imagine. Even after being released, who is to say these women will have a job or family to go back to?

Obviously, we should care. On a base level because of brutal censorship, but also because most of us are avid consumers of BL. We are part of the same ecosystem these authors are being punished for.

The Chinese state is criminalizing artistic expression because it dares to imagine something freer than the current order. And let’s be honest: this isn’t just happening in China. Across the world, we are watching governments police books, criminalize drag, erase trans people, censor art, and surveil fandom spaces under the guise of “morality.” Queer stories have always been political. So has fanfiction. What we’re witnessing is a war on imagination, especially when that imagination belongs to marginalized people.

And where is the Western media? Failing us. Articles from BBC and the New York Times treat danmei like a strange niche, or worse, frame BL as “problematic,” “pornographic,” or “exploitative." These narratives distract from the real issue: state violence against creators. Instead of standing up for freedom of expression, they’ve defaulted to tone-deaf cultural judgment.

What do we do? I'll be honest, even I'm not sure. I'm scrambling for resources. In China, online efforts at protesting are being erased and censored, as well as legal advice provided on social networking sites. Here are some ways I've thought of that might help.
- Spread awareness. If you have a platform, if you don't have a platform, say something. Let more people know about this. On Tiktok, Instagram, Bluesky, etc etc.
- Groups like PEN America and Chinese Human Rights Defenders are tracking these cases. Support them, donate, or help amplify their work.
- If you know danmei authors writing online today—especially in or near China—check in with them. A lot of lawyers in China are offering pro bono to these women. If you know any of them, offer money, legal assistance if you're qualified.

If I'm missing anything or said anything incorrect, please correct me. But this matters. Artistic liberty and freedom is under attack. Don't look away.

Hey guys, who is the most handsome character you know. Can be from any read/ watch just curious.
