I Think Our Son Is Gay by Okura
This manga follows the lives of mother Tomoko Aoyama and her eldest son, Hiroki. Hiroki is gay, but is too afraid to tell the rest of his family, including his mother, father, and younger brother, Yuri. Despite this, Tomoko knows her son is gay, but wants him to come out on his own. Yuri is also aware of Hikoki’s sexuality. Tomoko’s husband, constantly travels for work, but unintentionally hurts Hiroki’s feelings because of his outdated views on gay people and homosexuality. This slice-of-life manga makes the perfect read for anyone, as it covers the challenges of growing up, as well as relationships with family and friends. I love reading the manga series and I enjoyed the light-hearted story and humor throughout all of the books!
