So its okay for black haired semes to be childraped ?
Did I anywhere say it was ok for anyone to be raped, much less as a child? No. I also have been pretty vocal about condemning it and put trigger warnings for any manga which I know has child rape IRRESPECTIVE of the hair color or position. Please stop twisting my words.
But manga coming from countries (Japan, China, Korea) with predominantly black/dark hair repeatedly showing light haired characters being raped, raped as child, forced into prostitution as child etc ? This cues some sort of racial domination and/or fetishism.
I wouldn't want that to happen to anyone, but if they have to show it anyway, why not have both uke and seme as black hair? Why shy way from subjecting dark haired characters to the same atrocities as they do to light haired characters?
Just in BL alone there are 64 manga with Light haired semes raped vs 20 with dark haired semes. I don't even need to talk about ukes, since majority of the manga have light haired uke.
The trend seeps into manga of other genre (like Shonen) as well - 15 (light haired) vs 7 (dark haired).
Weird because most mangas coming from these countries usually feature asian characters (even if the colors of the hair is light, they still are asian, and if its fiction then most of hair colors dont make sense, it's a fucking cartoon)
I dont really understand what difference it makes if the seme or uke wad this hair color or the other. Sounds like you're a butthurt european or some shit. Smooth your soreness cause i doubt anyone is as obsessed as you are to be counting how many mangas have a light haired uke. Most people don't even notice the colours.
I never said they were not Asian. But Asians do not generally have light hair. And many school going children and office workers are shown with light haired. IN countries with strict rules regarding dressing and HAIR color.
Also ever heard of surrogate ads, they show something but actually sell something else. This is kind of similar. We get asian characters who do not look asian.
Depicting so many people with light hair in countries with predominantly dark hair points towards some unresolved issues. Obsession with light/fair skin, eyes and hair. We (asians) haven't really been able to get rid of this baggage.
Also, please stop making assumptions. I am Asian. That doesn't mean I want to see other races being put down. I am not racist.
If no one is noticing the colors, what has that got to do with me. I am commenting since it's my freedom. You replied to me because it's your freedom. You could have just ignored the comment thinking this is some obsessed person's rambling, but you still chose to reply.
Also, I don't think no one cares, I have seen people expressing this sentiment (about light haired uke) in a lot of forums.
Also that cartoon is not drawing itself, a real breathing HUMAN being is drawing it and real breathing HUMAN beings are reading it. And these real breathing HUMAN beings conform to a lot of stereotypes.
Regarding the count, saying is just saying. Data talks. This particular statement of mine actually challenges the world view of a lot of people on this site (proved by the number of down votes I get), so I need to back it up with data.
Just chill lmao it's just fiction no need to be this serious abt it. As if hollywood doesn't fetishizes or villanizes people from other countries and.out the white man with light hair as the saviour lmao. Literally 99% of western movies have villains belonging to the east of the world (esp. russia , china and the ME) so call your tits and go take some painkillers for your period
Since my comment was about manga, I am talking about manga. If I was talking about Hollywood, I would condemn anything wrong in it as well. Please stop with the assumptions.
I think you are the one who needs to chill. Ever heard of polite speech? I don't know if it's the anonymity or what.. but people use such language here. Don't Asian cultures emphasize politeness from childhood.
Did no one think about putting proper tags on this. This HAS CHILD RAPE in it. Not a single comment talks about the child related sensitive content in this.
This is seriously the second manga I picked up in last 3 days which has child rape. What is with the onslaught of this stupid trope.
Also another child rape victim seme with light hair. Sick of this trope already. Why do authors pick light hair for the seme when they want to add this kind of disgusting back story to them. Hardly is ever done for black haired semes. Twisted racial domination thing these people seem to have.
