The double standards tho

Am I the only one who feels like people give jaeha a lot of shit because he's a bottom. Like multiple tops in other bl stories have made even more horrible decisions and yet people forgive them or just brush over their actions. But here people slut shame jaeha and blame him for literally everything. Perhaps they can't fathom a bottom for being selfish or cold hearted because it's a 'tops thing' not a 'bottoms thing'. Just an interesting thought

    Jaeha is just annoying and stupid like most bottoms. But what makes it worse is that he keeps sleeping with his sex friend despite having feelings for Eunho and refusing Eunho.And no you are wrong, ukes are for... BeepBopp

    Okay but Eunho is defo not faultless in this either. He was overwhelming Jaeha at a point in his life where he was not ready for it and being pushy of his feelings towards Jaeha. Anyway personally I think the fact that Jaeha had overly screwed up relationships and poor communication was intentional on the authors part and not smth that was going to be excused at all. He never forgave himself for doing the crap he did (nor did Eunho) and it got to the point where he actively forces himself to feel okay and happy with the decisions he makes when he clearly hated himself immensely for them.

    Jaeha who is 'annoying and stupid' is just someone who has been conditioned by life to run away from his problems and let them pile up (Which is absolutely horrible). He is absolutely at fault no matter how you look at it but it is also human to make mistakes and grow from them which he does in the end.

    And also thank you for telling me about these characters because man do I not want to go through another story where red flags are treated as hot and sexy! In the end if you disagree that's chill too because everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I can perfectly see how Jaeha can be annoying AF as well

    Eunho isn't a victim. He is the one that decides to pursue Jaeha so of course he isn't faultless in his own pain. And Jaeha did nothing wrong really.

    As you say, he is just a human trying to do what he think is best. But in the end, what he does still hurts Eunho and that does make him annoying and disliker in the story. And the drama was just too long so i think thats why.most of us dislike him.

    Basically, we dislike the plot of the story lol.

    We're all very much aware of how insufferable Jaeha is (trust me I was incredibly annoyed with his decision making skills), I'm just pointing out that people are unnervingly more forgiving with infuriating tops than infuriating bottoms. Maybe we're on different sides of bl (considering that you spoke about how most bottoms get away with things easier) but I'll list down some current popular tops in the bl fandom and their horrible actions. (Spoiler alert, they got away with their actions)
    • Jaekyung from jinx (I don't have to explain) he has a lot of haters but he also has equal amount of supporters.
    • Taeju from low tide in Twilight (rape, trafficking, abuse) people claim that he's the 'best alpha' and hope that he has a baby with the Omega despite the numerous times he SAed the omega.
    • Seungho from painter of the night (abuse, rape) he's well loved by the bl fandom.
    • Caesar from champagne and roses (shot the bottom, raped him) he's also well loved.
    • Dohwa from love is an illusion (he raped the bottom and got him pregnant without consent) he's considered a green flag alpha and people were really excited about them having a baby despite the fact that it was from...assault.
    Now keep in mind that I HAVE NEUTRAL FEELINGS ABOUT ALL THESE TOPS. I guess....you could argue that "well at least these tops changed for the better and didn't let their partner suffer the entire series that's why they're not as insufferable"....but...these bitches literally committed acts of crime. Like compared to what they did Jaeha's actions weren't that bad, plus he also changed for the better in the end inorder to make Eunho happy. You may disagree and honey...that's completely okay!!! because I disagree with your opinion too.

    Mhm... I'll give it to you, the tops do get away with the worst things. xD! Like i agree they are actuallly horrible people most of em, but i still liked them and i dislike jaeha. So yea... It has nothing to do with how good a person Jaeha is but mostly how frustrating he made the story for me xD.

    Also I disagree for the ML in love is an illusion. (We are talking about Dojin right?) While what you said it's true, it's an omegaverse. We saw the MC countless time completely out of it because nof his omega instinct and he would himself assailt the ML. The same happened to the ML. While he had more cousciousness than the MC, it can still be said he lost control to his instinct.
    Also it's been very long time but didnt MC get pregnant from their first encounter? Which was because of MC "assaulting" ML? I might be wrong about that one though.

    But yea.... Overall the omegaverse itself is just a gigantic redflag by itself. It is literally designed to put bottoms(the women of their fault) as an inferior specie made to serve the men.

    Oh I see, well I'm not very well versed with omegaverse stories since I never read them so please don't mind me if I misunderstood love is an illusion, I was just reiterating what my friends have told me.
