How are you? : D
The one with the chubs? It's short but the artist is pretty good. Here's a link to his/her pixiv (very NSFW) (I'm not sure if the artist is a girl, the person who was in the booth when I bought it was a short skinny Japanese girl but I'm not sure if she was the artist - it was the "bara" corner and she was the only woman in there).

My collection doubled in size! I love Japan.
A few of the books are repeats of stuff I already had because they were so cheap (like 4 dollars, when I paid well over 20 dollars to import them) and you never know what might happen.
You look great!
Awww, you look awesome!
though you've done us a great injustice by not doing one of the pose.
Thanks guys!! It's so awesome here <3
I need to go out with one and get them to dress up in their ballet getup all the time *_*

Looking good I can't wear this kind of outfit.
Looks very Roger Rabbitesque
I didn't know lawyers were that handsome
Censoring is so annoying. Why couldn't they just use the small black bars.
Not at all. Looking fine as always.

So my mother has made her feelings clear I guess on if I ever came out to her. I already did it once and got "maybe it's a phase" as a response before. Now I know why. She wants biological grandchildren. One can only guess because I'm her only child and she wants that feeling since she was never able to have other children after me. It's weird because we've always been so close Y'know? It's not like she's homophobic otherwise either.
It's not like shed be angry or anything if I did but more dissapointed/sad. I don't really want to tell her for quite a bit while longer I guess.
I don't know.

Sorry buddy.
I kinda know how it feels, I'm my mothers only child and while she has never said anything on the subject, I know she really wanted grandchildren. Although being gay doesn't stop that, there are options, I decided not to freeze my sperm before chemo. I'd personally would rather adopt.

Would it be different if you were heterosexual but didn't want children?
Would it be different if you were heterosexual but couldn't have children?
Would it be different if you were heterosexual but no one wanted to have children with you?
Seems like a silly thing for her to pin on your sexual orientation, considering there are a whole variety of reasons one might not have children.

See, you're thinking logically and rationally.
In her mind, if I am heterosexual and get married and then can't have children, then its out of my hands.
If I don't want children, she can always pressure me into having some and maybe my wife can too.
If I'm with a man, all chances of having a biological child go down significantly. I guess.

Also, it's none of her business of you having children. It's your choice to have children or not, not hers. You're not here to pop at grandchildren at her behest. This is another example of parents treating their children like property.

Yeah, when people don't think logically and rationally, that kind of tosses things out the window I suppose.
But what I mean is that it's less to do with "having or not having a child," and more to do with "doing what she wants you to do."
So, yeah, this.
TheAbsolution
Member
Yes, I agree with you guys. Doesn't mean it changes anything.
I guess from her perspective, since she never had the chance to have other children and now definitely cannot, had in her mind the possibility of me having children. If I'm gay of bit, that throws it out the window almost entirely.
Weird but understandable.

I am to my older half-brother's kids, two wonderful nieces.
I'm sorry to hear that bro, it hurts to have someone say that you, especially your parents. In one way that something I fear my mother would say to me if I did ever come out to her, along with her saying homosexuality is unnatural. But yeah, I would not get too hung up on it. It's your life not her's, and it's your choice on whether you have children or not.So my mother has made her feelings clear I guess on if I ever came out to her.

I think I see Entwined in there, unf.Here's all the gay manga I bought in Japan (NSFW links!): part 1 and part 2.
I slightly (*ahem*) overspent there and still didn't get everything I wanted.
I already had a few of these books but they were so cheap (like 4 dollars, when I bought them for well over 20 dollars) that I bought extra copies just in case.
Way cute, seriously.
I think I'm going crazy.
I decided to see Hornet just because, I had no reason at all to do that and anonymously checked profiles and the first thing I saw was a guy who looks a lot like one of my friends (or him, I still don't know). The pic looked definitely like him but his eyes and hair were covered by a blue hat with a Nike logo.
Checked and it said that he is 19 years old, he is 18 miles from me and he is active. My friend is 19, but he is on the same town as me, so if it was him it would say that he is closer and my friend can't be active since he lost his phone on Friday and will not get a new one soon.
I sent a message but haven't been replied back and I don't think he will answer since I don't have a pic but there is also the possibility that he doesn't answer because he doesn't have a phone and the app just says he is active even when he is really not. I wonder how it works, does anybody here know?
Well, I'm getting a bit paranoid and anxious lately, everyone is becoming gay or bi in my eyes, my desires have taken control of my emotions and I hope that every friend or every cute guy I know is gay and I'm not being rational lately. Why am I doing this to me? I can't stop having those thoughts, my mind is insane, it hurts.

You look great! I hope you have a good time.Just about to head out to PAX
WOW. I'm so jealous. You got a lot of great books, and so many of my favorite artists are represented. (Shoutaroh Kojima!!!, Masanori, Mentaiko, etc.) Did you get any Gai Mazuki? Also, if you don't mind me asking, who are the artists for the "Sacrifice" books?Here's all the gay manga I bought in Japan (NSFW links!): part 1 and part 2.

Bara is like one of my favorite things ever. Though, I was looking at some Gengoroh Tagame stuff yesterday, and I was reminded that most of his work is a bit too "extreme" for me. XD
Completely understand that. I am the same exact way, and it sucks. I have no idea what hornet is though.

Thanks!
Awww mister.. I'm just your average joe! :') thank you though.
You look great! I hope you have a good time.
Aww thanks handsome!!! :') Wah I'm so happy with how the costume turned out! A bunch of people asked me for pictures with them today! Maybe I'll show you some of them when I'm home <3 pax has been soooooo awesome!! All the stuff I bought OMG. :')
Sacrifice are Berserk fanbooks by Inaki Matsumoto (circle name Killer Bambi), a "bara" veteran (had a lot of stories published in the earliest Kinniku Otoko, back in 2002-2003). She's a 40 something lady, sort of motherly I guess. Wasn't expecting that! Also, she wasn't in the gay comic corner, her booth was in the other hall actually. Very popular among fujoshi too, lots of stuff were sold out.
I did get Gai Mizuki's newest release, "Love over Love" (link to NSFW pixiv preview), 3rd row, 4th from the left. The older books and the PC games were sold out. He signed my book too! I got autographs from Shoutaroh Kojima (who's my favourite artist by far and the reason I went to Japan basically), Kazuhide Ichikawa (he speaks English very well and is such a nice person, his booth was right next to Kojiman's too so we chatted a lot - he's friends with a long time American friend of mine too), Gai Mizuki (not that approachable actually, he had like a 5 person staff in his booth, I suppose he's really big in Japan or something), Inaki Matsumoto and Takeshi Matsu.
Tagame does some nice stories, but the majority of his work is way too hardcore for me too. His best manga IMO are Virtus (the gladiator series) and the ones that were published in his English compilation.
I'm an old time "bara" fanboy too, I'll show the remainder of my collection later. Lots of very old stuff... those were the good days! Gay manga were one of the things that helped me the most with my sexuality struggles back when I was a confused youth in college. Might sound silly, but it's true.

I used to dance in high school and college. Not ballet but regional or folkloric whatever is the right term. The worst part is finding out many years later that most of the male dancers were deeply closeted gay men, me included. Only two of them were out and another couple guys turned out straigth. The other six to eight of us were too deep in own our closets to pay any attention to each other. lol
Well, what sucks is that you are the one who have to tell her she won't ever have grand children. As other have said, It's not really a decision she can make for you and waiting too long to talk to her about it is not going to change the situation much.So my mother has made her feelings clear I guess on if I ever came out to her.
...
I don't really want to tell her for quite a bit while longer I guess.
I don't know.
This sucks.
It really really sucks.
If in her mind you can't be gay beacuse she want you to have babies then her mind is wrong and its not your job to keep her in fantasy land. Now I'm getting all worked up thinking about over bearing mothers, I'm fantasizing about how you should just throw at her a cup with your frozen jizz inside and tell her to go find a mother for her grandchildren.
, Sorry not helpful.It reminds me of the first time looking trough a dating website and being in shock of how many gay people you find in there. Like I've lived here all my life and suddenly I could see all the gays crawling from under the rocks and from under water. Fortunately I never saw someone I knew but yeah. The thing is that any of your friends or cute guys you know could be gay and in an ideal world you would just have to ask them and they would respond honestly, but it's just not safe to go ask them because some homophobe could get ofended, and even the gay ones would just lie to you about it to be safe themselves. What would you do if some guy you barely know came to you and ask you directly "Are you gay?" at your age I would just laugh and say "NOOO, me gay? of course not!. I have to go now, bye" and then avoid that guy like the plague.
On the other hand you should embrace those thoughts you are having. You can have all kinds of imaginary sex with your friends. I know I did. Just keep it to yourself and there should be no problem.
I agree
