i hate the whole fuckin "boy love" thing on tapas. like, i get it, a few of the lgbt+ comics on this god forsaken site revolve around an actual plot, character development, artwork, etc. but it's honestly gotten to a point where gay romance is just a fetish for some of the artists on here, and it makes me so fucking uncomfortable (especially as a boy who experiences same-gender attraction). gay people aren't there so you can indulge in their sexuality and write smutty comics about two white teenagers that have absolutely no character depth. we are fucking people. and it's so fucking degrading to see that shit everywhere. stop. fetishizing. gay people.
for example, here are some comics that use queer romance appropriately:
"Long Exposure" by Mars, "brian and ditya" by bakanoapit, "A Matter of Life and Death" by Squinty, "Fluxa" by kukkiia, "Heartstopper" by alice oseman, "George and Johnny" by Savi
Dude it's amazing
THANK YOU!
OF COURSE! I LOVE IT ALL!
