Myself personally speaking ( Bi male ) in my teenage years and now still I watch quite alot of anime. I've had a fair share of male crushes irl but I always did some mental gymnastics that this was a one time case and that never again. But then whenever I watched anime there'd be at least one male character who I'd have to look up porn/cute stuff of. This made me abit consider because I was under the hole impression of "oh I don't like every man I see so I possibly can't be" but shortly afterwards I learned more specific terms like twinks and so on.

: ) so I'm curious if there are any other similar cases on here, and if so post a show that you remember having this effect quite effectively, for me it'd be attack on Titan with Levi Ackerman and eren Yeager.
