from the linked article:

the film's (Love of Siam) success sent an emphatic message to entertainment media companies: there was money to be made in same-sex romance.
The soapies are not promoted as queer shows. In fact, the target market is primarily young women
so I was going to suggest the moderators move this to the "Everything Else" forum but then there were the more relevant bits about tolerance rather than acceptance in Thai society and parents thinking "good girls and boys" don't watch such programs but then the final paragraphs somewhat spoil that dose of reality with unsupported wishful thinking that everything is changing very quickly in Thai society!

still if we can get some controversial replies we might just get it hidden way and forgotten in the Holding Room
