Welcome to Hanging Out, an all-ages club with thrift-shop decor and an aggressively queer-friendly vibe. Straights and norms are always welcome, as long as you don’t freak when two girls or two boys kiss in a corner. Stay long enough and listen respectfully, and maybe some of the local teens will tell you their stories.
Xuanhuan (玄幻, pronounced /shwehn-hwan/, literally “mysterious fantasy”) is a wildly popular Chinese genre showcasing martial artists in overpowered fantasy worlds based on traditional folklore and Daoist mythology. Most are purely adventure yarns, as sexually explicit content is banned in China, especially if it’s not strictly heterosexual. Come to the tea-house, join us on the storyteller’s mat, and listen to what happens when a censored form meets Western erotica. [Public universe, anyone can join]
