minus-square「黃家駒 Wong Ka Kui」 | (aka: 鳳凰院 凶真 Hououin Kyouma)@sh.itjust.worksOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up14arrow-down1·2 days agoNo I mean like… I never saw my parents hug… never saw them kiss… not even at home. Don’t think they even have sex, I suspect the only two times they ever fucked was to procreate… to create my brother and me. Literally their room is open and I could just walk in, and as a kid I go sleep in their bed a lot. So no, they didn’t have sex, because if they did, I would’ve had accidentally barged in and saw it. Maybe this is why they argue a lot lol, lack of sex…

minus-square「黃家駒 Wong Ka Kui」 | (aka: 鳳凰院 凶真 Hououin Kyouma)@sh.itjust.worksOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·22 hours agoOh okay, so I’m gonna walk downstairs to the living room and be like: “點解你哋唔 性交？” 💀 Nah its… how do I explain it… Like there’s this atmosphere, this “vibe” that like… it doesn’t feel as open as a westerm family is. Like I never even seen any thing remotely resembling a “sex scene” in Chinese tv shows, that just to show you what the culture is like. It’s gonna be so awkward to ask it lmao.
