I also can't stand it when people portray Tao as this weak little diva who will just burst out crying if fanfan gives him a scary look T_T Like did these people not watch taotao do sixty push-ups in fifty seconds on "It Takes a Real Man," or perform any of his badass wushu, or, I don't know, manage to repeatedly break Chinese music records through hard work and determination?
It seems like many people think that being the submissive in a story equates to being a delicate little flower with a fragile psyche. But even if taotao is submissive, that doesn't mean that he has to be an incredibly girly diva *sigh*.
