EXACTLY!!! Just ruins the story knowing that a FULL ADULT is grooming and ... dating a child fully aware ???? Like what ???? It's so damaging for lesbians and stories like this because it plays into the negative stereotype, of lesbians (or gays in general) being predatory and praying on young girls/boys, which is wrong.
Yes !!!
Actually, more and more Yuri/Shojo-Ai stuff just portrays things like pedophilia and incest (mother/daughter...in some mangas) as being acceptable...
Yuri is just depicted in a way that as long as both characters are female then ANYTHING is acceptable...Which is extremely disturbing and harmful if young people read this and think that it's okay for a 15 years old to date a 30 years old. This genre is just normalizing some of the harmful things and the ever craving and hungry community/readers just pander up to it. Anybody who says otherwise gets attacked or told ''don't read it if you don't like it'' or ''go read vanilla stuff then''.
It's sad actually.
So I made it until chapter 9.5 I think? Why couldn’t I continue further despite the main couple being extremely cute? Well it’s because of the pedophilia. I was willing to read further despite the student teacher relationship because I was hoping it would’ve been framed as a bad thing...(which, fair enough makes me the dumb one) and yeah no it only got worse.
They start ‘dating’ when she’s in middle school and the teacher is an university student. Which means she’s an adult already. It’s even creepier when the adult in this relationship even says something along the lines of it not even being legal. So there’s definitely self awareness coming from the adult here.
Basically;
Dropped because this author seems to think teacher student relationships are fine to normalize and the same as wlw or girls loving girls.
