ramblings on Li Ming (and Heart) and homosexuality
moonlight chicken has so many things to offer in terms of technical beauty and interesting themes but what i cannot stop thinking about is the different ways they approach homosexuality in the story.
we have Wen who has a rainbow flag on his desk and pictures of him and Alan on the wall. Wen, who openly flirts with Jim and has no qualms talking openly about his one night stand. Wen, whose step father knows about his sexuality and is close enough with him to discuss his love life.
Kaipa we don’t know too much about. But his mom knows and is supportive and some of the vendors and the chicken family seem to know. But if anyone was questioning in what reality this show is set with all the class discussion and corona featuring, his part of the story shows that homophobia exists and he is worried about how he fits in with his own family, the expectations of his mother and possible the awareness that he makes the family he has “different”.
Jim is arguably even more visibly gay than Wen in terms of what we see throughout the show. He opened the shop with his ex, they prayed at the temple together and even though he objected due to proprities sake eventually they loudly declared their love to each other and the whole neighbourhood knows. Wen somehow feels like he is living in the remnants of a bubble: his circle of friends seems very queer, his closest friend and the whole gym seem to be all part of that as well. This only might change now with him questioning his work and breaking up with Alan: some gatherings he won’t attend anymore apparently.
And finally, we have Li Ming. At school he doesn’t seem to open up to his classmates on most things and additionally is in the closet. While there wasn’t anything alluding to homophobic rethoric being spread at school we can see how the heteronormativity gets to him and feel that there must be good reason as to why no one knows. And it could just be how Li Ming is judging the situation based on vibes, we don’t know. His mother is or at least was homophobic but at the same time he is raised by his gay uncle who is surrounded by other gay people. And I love how it feels like this might have given him enough security to be comfortable with his own sexuality but how it also isn’t enough to shield him from the world at large.
With so many great shows coming out of Thailand and most of them getting more and more political it just feels so real and 2023 to me that Li Ming is part of a generation that knows who they are but still have to battle with the shadow that homophobia has cast way before they were born.
#moonlight chicken#i had this in my draft for a week now thinking if i'd get the time i could put this more leloquently but that was a lie as it turns out#might edit some stuff later#but for now i just have to write about how fantastic this show is for giving these varied realities of queer life#which are all influenced by their environment but also in the way the characters connect across generations#we don't know if him had a gay mentor who could've guided him#whereas li ming technically has him and his neighbourhood friends to reference#but li ming - understandibly so - seems more closeted than anyone else (minus Heart possigly)#in middle school everyone around me proclaimed how supportive they were of lgbt+ rights#but as soon as one guy came out he become the TALK of the school for weeks#he got reduced to his sexuality#and when he dated a girls some months after he got called attention seeking for coming out as gay before#and most people thought they were doing an open-minded thing#and despite knowing that i know that i am not the only queer kid who decided to not come out lest we'd become that talk of the whole school#and our dating lives scrutinized#even though all of us were super comfortable with who we are#and for me that was mostly the case because i had adult lesbian role models close to my family#so i knew i was good and that nothing strange was going on#but still - this othering made the school environment hostile enough to keep me in the closet#so yes - i am extremely delighted with how they depict this dynamic with li ming

Y'all gonna hate me for this one, but you can't call it a homoerotic friendship if that woman was never into you. It's called lust, limerence and delusion.
#txt#lgbt#wlw#lgbtqia#there is nothing more dehumanizing than being on the ace spectrum and being on the receiving end of this#words cannot describe how betrayed i felt#like especially considering i had to figure it out for myself#some of them arent even gay or bi they just want someone who IS between their legs like WHAT#i was a relationship with my fiancé and reliving gay rumors about me like why would i ever use someone as a beard#people can't tell the difference between platonic and romantic attraction and when you're kind to someone they think you want them#there's a stigma of being bi or pan where people just think your body is a free for all#or that you're really gay and confused when you're with a partner who is your opposite gender#like i always stayed away from dating women after being harmed by them all my life and oooh that was my last straw LMAOOOO#like i hate that people get obsessed with the idea of me#and when i fall from their pedestal they just want to ruin my life because they didnt get sex from me#even worse when they dont like you but they want to BE you like you are not gay#like they dont have an identity in general and are just latching onto mine and using romance as the excuse for access#so sick lmao im venting in the tags#homoerotic friendship my fat ass like a real friend would NEVER

I was talking to my sister about being aro and that kind of fear I have that everyone I love will love someone else more because they'll all get partners. And she said I could just "Dan and Phil it". Which I guess I never thought about before? They may not either be aspec but their relationship really is the ideal. They said best friends forever and they meant it.
#im not here to speculate abt their relationship. they are both gay and they live together and thats all we know which is cool#but they have a house and a life together. like even if they arent romantically involved they are each other's most important person#and that is so inspiring to me as an arospec person who like. also wants to have a life partner or a permanent best friend or a fav person#like idk. good for them#and maybe they are dating and just don't wanna say it (valid) but still. perhaps it is possible for me#aromantic#aspec#dan and phil#dan howell#phil lester#lgbt#queer

Dating apps really fucks with your dopamine levels.
I go from "talking to" and "sexting" like 10 girls at once to feeling
" I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo"
A few days later after they ghost me.

Personally, as an autistic person, I love people being flabbergasted about pronouns. Oh wah wah wah you’re having issues with how to refer to people?? Baybe I’ve been struggling not to refer to myself in the second person since 1997, don’t @ me until it takes you 20 years to remember which way is right and which way is left without making an L with your fingers
#i’m kidding btw pronoun discourse is exhausting#and dated!! haven’t we figured this out already? i’ve been here since 2010 i thought Discourse was Over ™️#referring to myself in the second person? oh yeah baby#misgendering cis ppl b/c all language sounds like simlish? hell yeah brother#actually autistic#autism#<- i wish these had the rainbow tags too lol#lgbtqia#lgbt#gay#lesbian#trans#queer#bisexual#i just like the colors tbh#homosexuality#<- iirc this one doesn’t get the colors which wow hahaha how… typical#nonbinary#didn’t realize i’ve been using they/them my entire life talking about ppl i wasn’t specifying because it felt right?#wasn’t even tryna be woke pronouns are just hard mang

i’m on the bi cycle i guess. i hope my next foray into the world of…men…is less trauma inducing and more respectful and affirming than my past of aborted dates, jumping the gun, and being used.

So weird being nonbinary / genderfluid bc I think about my attraction to men & it's in a gay way. Then I think about my attraction to women & it's in a gay way. I'm like multi-track drifting at this point. And I am both bisexual and gay. Hope this helps.
#speculation nation#ykno the jokes about how someonw says 'im lgbt' and some1 else is like 'what all at once?'#thats me. im the lgbt.#i have a girlfriend and it's in a gay way. of COURSE it is.#when i dated my ex boyfriend that was in a gay way too. especially bc we r both trans.#im not limiting myself saying all men r gross bc life is beautiful and lush with experiences#& liking men in a gay way is a wonderful thing#from afar of course. since i Am dating someone. mostly this just manifests with fictional characters lol#IT'S JUST IMPORTANT TO ME that i not stifle my identity ykno? i will be who i am#the only men im 100% not into are cishet men. like blegh their attention makes my skin crawl.#but that's mostly bc theyd just see me as a girl lol & i am Not about that#anyways. hi im lgbt. yes all of them.

Ik I kinda asked this but in a different font, but, I'm asking it again anyways
Saiki, makoto and saiko are on a date at that one lil Cafe saiki likes. Kokomi walks in on them.
Hcs?
OKAY! So, as you mentioned this cafe, I now must spam all of you with these cute coffee designs I had originally drew in a little illustration for this ask... UNTIL freaking Clip Studio Paint turned off and logged me out by some weird random shit, only for me to see THE ART WASN'T SAVED ALL THE WAY!
I will post it someday if I can... so sorry, here's some ref pics;
Like I'm sorry but HELLO?! THIS IS FAR TOO CUTE TO DRINK!!!
Okay so HOW?! HOW THE FUCK DOES PEOPLE DO SUCH AMAZING LATTE ART WHEN I STRUGGLE?!
IT'S A JELLY COFFEE! THAT LOOKS LIKE A BEAR!
Outfit refs;
In order, Saiko, Makoto, and Saiki
NOW ONTO THE HEADCANONS!
Saiki rubbed his face as he checked his reflection for the millionth time this morning
He quickly groomed himself as he thought back on Makoto's plans for the day, this cute cafe they all visited recently, for a total for three hours! Is it weird he's weirdly excited more than the coffee jellies he may get??
He made his way after cleaning up properly to the cafe in question and allowed his boyfriends to take both his hands/arms and basically guide him to the farthest booth in the cafe
They ordered a lot of the menu by the time they sat down, of course the two decide to spoil their psyche bean with the menu options, cuddling the cats nearby cause I'm making this a cat cafe okay??
They were...kind of in their own little bubble of peace and gentle snuggles and affections. Makoto reciting a scene from a romance novel to them, Saiko lovingly petting a cat's head, and Saiki just smiles and admires the date was going well.
They were so deep it wasn't until Saiki went to give them both a kiss across the booth he heard a familiar voice-
Shooting his head right he freezes seeing a certain pretty girl from his school walk to a booth nearby.
The two froze and stare
Crap, They both thought Did he/she follow me?!
But then Saiki noticed two other schoolmates, two blonde hair cuties-
Yeah if it wasn't obvious from this post, Teruhashi kind of started seeing her two besties and once romance rivals~
AND I WANNA DO HEADCANONS ON THEM SO I'LL SO SOME HERE!
This is their song:
I can actually seeing them singing this during a date night
They began to see each other some time after Teruhashi found out of the poly of her brother and her crush and her other classmate
Aiura was the one who made the first moves of karaoke nights and kisses
ANYWAYS!
The six kind of stared at each other in awkward silence until both Makoto and Kokomi spoke up: "We didn't see you, you didn't see us"
Yeah they quickly moved on with their dates, though it took a bit for any poly to go back to affectionate lovey dovey after that startle
Some time after this though, they decided to do a trouple double date event. Sure, on outside views it seems like three boys dating their girlfriends but that's fine!
Lots of cafe and beach dates cause social lovers-
