 welcome to the NEW lgbt thread. this is a chat thread for da gays and people who want to talk about lgbt manga/anime/etc. in practice this means there is a lot of crossover with the shoujo thread. but this is a more casual chat style thread so there are less things off topic— like we started discussing horror movies a bit last thread and it prob come up again. You don't have to be a card carrying homo to post here but no performative allyship, people got weird last thread. Avoid posting personal details, LGBT threads have been targeted by offsites before. Be mindful of what ya link, most series have tags on them but if you think the tags don't cover content that can be triggering or you think it should especially be noted do so. Try to avoid going too guns ablazin on everything you disagree with. Everyone who posts here is likely going to be passionate about lgbt meda and its probable they're lgbt themselves. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2a6Wqq4zifw this thread was sponsored by Lady in Mystery

i thought about using the second post here to be a list of recs from people in the thread but i decided against it. i think it would be a good idea for the first few pages though if anyone wants to rec stuff in general to do so since this is what people are going to see first when they click the thread.

Pollyanna posted:I honestly wish there was more outright trans rep in anime and manga. Maybe I’ve just been missing it, but most of the non-cisnormative rep is couched in “haha gender-nonconforming presentation but nope actually definitely a boy!!”. Which is all well and good, GNC rep is important, but we’re just outright rare in comparison. i mean i think its getting better over the years. i dunno, i don't think its exactly fair to say people are scared to commit or are chasing "fads" like the video I link in the OP there mangaka wrote something kinda problematic but like you watch it and you are like "well this does seem like it came out of their own dysphoria." like there can be complexities with this stuff, still sucks though. e: also im annoyed with you because of the programmers meme >:i Snooze Cruise fucked around with this message at 16:51 on Aug 26, 2021 |

BlankSystemDaemon posted:Alright, so continuing a conversation from the intermediary thread: ahh yeah completely get that. i had it mind and i think the stuff i mention avoids that, i can't remember exactly how Would be Great went though. but like in this case the character in Love Song is a miss opportunity for another character, confesses she loved her too but she loves her current boyfriend so she isn't going to break up with him and turns her down but it ends amicably

i think that one is fine? like the other thing implies trickery and predatory behavior and while what you are saying can be sexualized it does just read more on the face of it just describing "this is a nonconforming presentation"

Pollyanna posted:I used to be really into that stuff, like 2007-2008 era. It's been over 13 years since I transitioned and it all rings very...not hollow, but differently. Kinda like the change from the silver age to the dark age of comic books. i really want to make fun of you for the comic books comparison here you dork. but yeah i do understand that. something bothers me, which you are not doing tbc, is when some trans people imply like everyone is going to grow out of liking stuff like this once they transition. i understand where it comes from since, it may be seen as more fetishistic and i think people inherently want to get away from that since a line used by TERFs is all of this is just a fetish.

im going to do some quick general recs since nobody else is doing them, sob sob its going to be all yuri because that is mostly what i read Amano Shuninta's Sweet Guilty Love Bites. About a group of hostesses. Short and sweet, multiple couples. Octave tends to be a classic go to recommendation on here, but for good reason. Its weird and introspective, and the author's recent one shots have been really good. Still Sick... is still sick! Read Still Sick. It has OLs and they draw gay manga and stuff. Some ongoing stuff tmfly's So Do You Want To Go Out Or. Its good. Read it. its good. Read it. Ise-san and Shima-san. Its tag as subtext but the one lady is straight up comes out of the closet and the author is drawing art of the other one gnawing on her affectionately when she gets drunk so...Its a cute series I like it only two chapters so far but Maitsuki, Niwatsuki, Ooyatsuki has some really attractive art, the premise has been solid, and i have high hopes for it[/url]

Acerbatus posted:Could just be a coincidence then, I'd asked Julias about having clearer guidelines about some of the stuff that got posted and figured he was taking the opportunity for a new thread. Specifically it was closed because of you and I rather you not post in this thread as well. You sent PMs last night asking for a link to get removed in the previous thread to a manga you said bothered you that was posted months ago. In the thread you made a quote expressing interest in this chapter and said you wanted it to get trashier. Once the link was removed you edited your own post in question to remove that you ever had an interest in the story. The manga in question was chapter 2 of My Girlfriend's Not Here Today. There was a three panel sex scene between high schoolers that while I don't find personally problematic or pornographic I had no issues to removed it while I was asked. I do have an issue with the fact that you seem to want it remove in what is either a game to you or a move to protect your own back out of paranoia someone would call you out for liking the manga. Bees closed the thread not out of the thread being full of stuff being over the line but a misguided attempt to fight back against you. You have a history of being a terror in LGBT spaces on this forum, I think the appropriate fresh start here would be to keep you out.

I have no interest in debating you but to clarify a few things i talked to bee's about this because i was venting, it was her thread, no mods or admins contacted her even if you weren't the one who edited your post  this was referring to the manga you apparently had a problem with i don't want you here, call it a grudge if you want. don't try to make this about you taking a noble stand because any number of lgbt posters on these forums can report in on your issues in the past. personally, i am disgusted with this. these issues get to me, and the fact that its being turn into some sort of game for you upsets me.

Can't ya, at the very least, probe the person all the gay people in the gay thread (and in numerous other gay threads) don't like... So they don't post here until we get someone higher up here to deal with them.

Oh i want to mention something I read yesterday. The other day i was browsing twitter and came across of an ad for a Korean manwha with a very hot cover  (no nudity here but i wouldn't exactly call it work safe so im putting it in spoilers) I seen it translated as both Hateful Woman or Hateful Lady. Anyway i read the first translated chapter yesterday. At first it was doing that cliche I don't like of "woman who attracts other women! but she likes men!!" with the MC (middle lady in the pic) but it took a sudden swerve. It showed she is just a straight up serial flirt with women and asks an out lesbian if she makes her horny. Absolute trash protagonist, I love her. Def on the smutty side of things.

Aurora posted:i think the most hosed up part of anything scream related is that dead by daylight got the rights to the ghost face mask instead of the scream films so tehy just have their own entirely original dude that is the ghost face killer i never played that game and don't think it would be my type of thing but looking at it from the outside it does seem pretty wild, like the whole making an animated opening for the K-Pop singer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iowkiPobYYQ ZenMasterBullshit posted:Citrus+ more like Citrus-2 hours as I caught up to current on it. i been liking it a lot more then Citrus, which kinda had some pacing problems and a rough start (which, hey it was their first manga so understandable)

ZenMasterBullshit posted:It's very good I like the main pairing a lot but I want more focus on some of the side characters, but I also want some of the side characters to not exist anymore so I guess it averages out to fine. I think I know who you are talking about but thankfully they haven't pop up much in + even ignoring everything else they were just kinda a nothing duo that added zilch. I want more of the weirdo detective character who felt like she fell out of a horror manga... Please give me more of her...

Karasu Tengu posted:What's some good lesbian/lgbt stuff that's not strictly a romance story? There's a lot of good romance suggestions in here but sometimes (often) I'm in the mood for something less romance focused. double house autobiographical stuff like lesbian experience and honey & honey not lesbian focus but Yuureitou. very problematic but it's a giallo film in manga form with gender stuff himegoto juukyuusai no seifuku is also incredibly messy those later two both need cw on sexual assault, and Yuureitou is honestly a bit lovely with some of its gender stuff.

Argas posted:Hmmm, probably starts at not being set in the real world. Magic and stuff is fine but it doesn't absolutely need the more standard injection of fantasy fare. Moonlight Garden isn't the best written thing but if you enjoy disguises and mistaken identity + mean ladies its pretty serviceable. Its smut and the conceit revolves around a historical fantasy lesbian brothel where all the women are "flowers" which they are not allowed to leave so thereissues around consent (which is a point of the story) Thought about throwing in a rec for Her Shim-Cheong but that is more of an "re-imagined folklore" setting (so set in our world) and is mostly historical though there are fantasy elements.
