Maurício and Fernando from the brazilian tvshow Quem Ama Cuida.

Since the previous post was a hit, I’ve compiled some of the moments between Fernando and Mau Mau so far. When I have more time, I’ll try to put together a storyline for Mau Mau, because his story is really beautiful. He’s a shy, introverted gay man who doesn’t have many friends, and his grandfather is homophobic and constantly stifles him at home.

Here the whole time Netlfix

Is anyone looking forward to wathcing this movie coming out on Netflix?

After watching the trailer, I'm really looking forward to it, especially with the trope they're showcasing. Hope it doesnt feel like a rushed romance.

When you fall in love with the Bissexual Guy

Fernando e Mau Mau from the brazilian telenovela #QuemAmaCuida

Their storyline is in the beggining they didn't even kissed yet. But I'm gonna post all about them on my twitter.

I need that discreet love like in the movie Maurice

I want that discreet love that no one knows about, our secret, like the one in Maurice and brokeback mountain. No one has to know our buisness

Western/Non asian gay media which is like BL(Asian gay media)

I'm gonna be real here so please don't judge my preferences, it doens't translate to my views in real life

Here's the vibe I want which is common in BL- Monogamy, lack of cheating, love over lust, deep emotional connection, limited lgbt/pride references

Other than somewhat Heartstopper, I haven't been able to find a western BL which fits this

Do you guys also feel you ran out of things to watch?

I've watched all the major gay films, and the indie ones from the past few years too. And the popular indie ones as well. I've watched all the gay series (or tried to for the ones I didn't like), and there are barely any current ones still ongoing.

I just feel I don't have anything to watch that is gay related. The only thing is that some side character in a show has a gay storyline for a few episodes in a 22 episode season.

There are still a few movies I want to watch but they haven't come out yet.

If Andrew Scott were to win the best actor Oscar for “Elsinore” he’d be the first openly gay man to do so, but frankly, that would be weirdly depressing because…

… he will have won and made that history for playing a gay man dying of AIDS. I have no polite way of saying how regressive that would be. It would definitely cement an old archetype that, thankfully, has been really fading away the last several decades, if not fully disappeared.

We know how wrong it would be, but the immediate conversation would be how gay guys can only play gay guys - who just happen to be dying of AIDS.

I know many may not care too much about these awards - but considering that you’re already in the space, the odds of being into it are probably higher - but yes, these sorts of things do have a big impact on the public imagination and discourse.

If only we could only have our own version of a Jodie Foster, although of course, she too, was publicly closeted when she won twice. And as for Spacey, well, besides the obvious bad role model thing, he too was publicly closeted.

What do you make of this?

A Tribute to George

Adon was a gay-interest magazine published in Japan from 1974 to 1996. Beginning in 1984, George Takeuchi adopted a unique visual style and language for its covers. A Tribute to George catalogs these beautiful cover designs, which are in danger of being lost to time. Enjoy the art, folks!

Movies/series about gay/lesbian relationships during the 20th century?

Do you have any recommendations for movies/series about queer young adults/teenagers, preferably in the 20th century (could also be early 2000s) who have a relationship with somebody? I’m looking for the same vibe as in Everything Sucks, the Shards, Beautiful Thing, Stranger Things (Robin and Will), But I’m a Cheerleader etc. Preferably the queer character as the main character.

I love watching movies/series about queer teenagers/young adults who live in a time period or just a part of the world/a community where their queerness isn’t allowed or frowned upon. Shows like Heated Rivalry makes a good example of that too even though it takes place later on.

Thanks on beforehand!

Requesting Book Recommendation With Adult Characters.

I want to find some books to read in the gay genre that aren't dealing with coming out or coming of age which seems to be the majority of recommendations in the genre. I also enjoy those but I was wondering if there are any books people would recommend about gay adult men (later 20s or older) living life, dating and all that.

Any recommendations appreciated. Even better if the book exists in audio book format since that tends to be how i consume books right now.

Also does anyone have any good podcast recommendations related to gay life? I recently found sidenote by asap science had some episodes specifically about more gay topics and really enjoyed that so would be cool to find more interesting ones to listen to.
