betitngoan's art

[klodasmone]

Okay, taboo material here, but I'll try debating about it, even if one of the so called "cleaners" decides, that it's too much for kids to handle, and deletes my post.

Gay comics by gay people, in my opinion, are okay, because it sheds light on the plight of homosexuals, about their relatioships with other men and also even about the lesbian minorities. Nevertheless... the image can be damaged by misinterpretations, the fantasy-driven over-dramatic plot. I'm okay with betit's comics, because they are his imagination, and although I also happen to have an artistic knack for androgynous men, I can't seem to say the same about this style in question. But that's okay. Not all yaoi should be adorable, hot or pitiful in their nature. Maybe it's demoralizing to believe that gay people should all be girlish, stylish and beautiful, but... my point here is... betit's style doesn't fit the regular bishonen style, defined by long limbs, silky hair, slender eyes with long eyelashes, femine face, etc. Betit's style is more "manly" even without the bulging muscles, with strong jaws and big arms. And probably what I'm getting at, is the fact that can't emphatize with that. For illiustration of what I mean, have a look at a simpler bed-room look approach, two naked boys can look cute together and only feel slightly wrong, but that's my interpretation, so don't believe me (and I won't put a picture here, only a link, which you can ignore, because betit will get angry for not being able to give me any more negative rep, the bastardo!): http://kovaliovas.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d3h9ewg
