My Boy

My Boy

A manga about an office worker who befriends a lonely child at a park.

…ugh

OK, look…

This manga is unfinished so MAYBE it won’t go the Bunny Drop route. HOWEVER, based on what I’ve read I’m highly doubtful. The creator even specifically says this is a shouta story at the end of volume 1. The fact that the boy is so beautiful that he’s easily mistaken for a girl really doesn’t help either.

Do not get me wrong. I think there are plenty of good stories that can be told about a relationship between an adult and a child. But limit those to friendship. The moment you add any sexual attraction, I’m out. I have no time for anything that sexualizes children.
