Disturbing

It's disturbing how rape can be treated as something light and pleasurable in a manga.
"Oh, but it was cute!" . IT'S RAPE! RAPE IS NEVER CUTE! THIS IS RIDICULOUS!

    I know how you feel, but you have to remember this is the yaoi world and for some reason anything's possible

    I'm sorry I accidentally pressed annoying. I agree with you tho. But yaoi has been using the rape plot ever since it started so I think it will be hard to change something that is done for so long. I mean rape has been a normal thing in yaoi

    "Because is the yaoi world" makes this even more disturbing. I mean, most mangakas are women! If you see rape in hentai made by guys you just say "this is for guys". So guys and girls support rape in the fantasy world!
    And then people question the world about all this raping happening everywhere. "Sick people!" Well... what do we read? What do we watch? What we are made to think is pleasurable?
    Even if this is "just for fun", we should think why rape is "fun", "adorable", "hot". Even more... why is rape romantized? "The uke starts to feel good mid-way, so is not really rape" or "The uke falls in love with the seme-rapist, so is love".... (?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??????????)

    Yeah, I can't stand when rape is treated so lightly. It's so damn common in yaoi, too.

    I agree. Rape is never acceptable and it shouldn't be portrayed in a positive light, but the thing with yaoi is that it's about fantasies. In all genres of erotic fiction (not just yaoi), rape is used as a romantic plot device. I'm not saying it's ok, but rape is actually a common fantasy; it's about the "I'm so attracted to you that I can't resist" and the "dominance" appeal.

    ^I meant that rape is often used as a device, not always.

    It's pretty sad that this is considered refreshing, honestly.
