>>40958338Do you really think that Japan's view might change, even just a little? Whenever it came to showing male-oriented gay stuff in their media, from what I've seen, it was always treated more as a joke. The "sassy/fashionable men", or two boys sleeping/waking up in the same bed "but it was just a joke haha". If they were to have a quick smooch or so, it would just be quickly played off as a "haha whoops" sort of moment.
And, to be quite honest, I try my best not to be upset about it, or at least not too vocal about it. It's their culture, after all. They have their views and philosophies, just as we do here (assuming we're both from the West), and that's ultimately fine. But, still...
Also, geez, I know the whole point of reaction images and emoticons is to help add some "voice" or visuals to a digital message, but tone of voice can still be such a challenge to convey. My apologies if I came off as sounding rude or sarcastic/snarky. I assure you that this was meant to be a sincere reply. :)
