Synopsis"Bishonen" are the beautiful boys that overpopulate shôjo manga. Flowers & Bees is the manga that makes men out of beautiful boys. Beautiful men.
Masao Komatsu might think of himself as a total loss. But high-school life is never so bad that it can't get a little worse, and unfortunately, it turned out he still has a few crumbs of self-respect hiding here and there.
Gorgeous sisters Kiyoko and Harumi will be happy to vacuum them out of his pockets--with each and every visit by Masao to World of Beautiful Men, the men's salon they own.
Why shouldn't young men, too, get the chance to have their lives ruined in the pursuit of unattainable standards of beauty? Though mocked by classmates and stared at on the street, Masao vows to remain faithful to his makeovers--determined to become the man hairdressers, estheticians, and fashion magazine editors only dream that women dream of!

Flowers & Bees is not about flowers or bees. What it is about is a young man's journey through adulthood as he's mentally abused by two sadistic sisters at a salon for men. He just can't get laid... though he does get 'raped' by a love-hole wielding sadistic sister, if that counts (?).
Haunted House is not about a haunted house. What it is about is a young man whose family intentionally scare away EVERY girl he brings home by going full-on goth; make-up, costumes and all. They miss no chance to add to the mental wounds of the lead as he fails to get laid throughout his high school and early working years.
Female authors known best for shoujo/josei/ladyworks creating something with a male lead and then drawing the lead in question be tortured always makes for an especially amusing experience. Maybe guys are just too simple, or maybe the authors in question have had too much practice in real life... or maybe creating these types of stories works as a form of sexual frustration release. I don't know. But what I do know is that they're quite amusing.
