The question I'd like to ask the creator of this story/anime (Himegoto) is ~why does it seem like the guy here must be kicked around - especially on account of cross-dressing - for the show to be interpreted as comedic/entertaining~?


Having read a lot of crossdressing-guy manga for male readers, a lot of the stories revolve around aggressive, bossy women who bully the male lead and force him to crossdress. In the more explicit stories this is usually followed by her sexing him up but good, and I think that's the core part of the fantasy even in the PG stories: aggressive, dominant women who will make you their plaything, with the "in bed" implication made more or less explicit according to the rating of the series. I hadn't even heard of Hemegoto before seeing this article, so I don't know if the same dynamic applies here, but it's plenty common.

Wow some of you have inner issues you really need to work through.


I'm so disappointed this is only going to be five minutes, I was thinking from the start that it would be a full anime! Crying or Very sad
