There is this one scene where the MC tried to top his ex and the thought process of the ex just made me think, how a lot of tops in danmei look down or detest bottoming. You love someone so much, yet you make them do something that you wouldn't do it yourself.

Also that once scene where the ML sister told he's not a sister in law, he's a man. The number of novels where the bottom just becomes the wife of the top, purely because he bottoms or that one scene where the top's friends and family are happy and accepting cause even though he's gay, he's still the top.

And how many novels are even out there where the characters are just gay and not gay for their love interest. I mean their sexuality is not just based on their love interest.
