I agree. I saw parts of some games.
A big huge BUTT tho:
Maybe we should be not so loud about this here or somebody might tell
some Priests who might get glued to the TV! LOL
Seriously I think we should be careful about possible backlash if we
point out this BL influence in the media too too too much.
Have you noticed most of the boys in TV shows are prettier than the
girls? I think thats not just for the girls in the audience. They know
boys sell to adults too.
Mom watches H&G TV a lot. They have gay customers in real estate shows
about 5-10%. If mom noticed it must be totally obvious! Real inclusive
of them. I hope the trend continues with all minorities and doesn't
swing in the other direction as it usually does too soon.
Maybe there might be a time in the far future when all of this is
unremarkable? If the world doesn't burn up into a dead smoking cinder
first. Priorities! LOL
