It started as shounen ai so I thought I wasn’t going to have to worry about it with this one, but then I saw all the comments recently. I read like the first 20 chapters and then put it on hold til it updated more. I was going to read it now that it says completed and now I don’t know. I have read stuff with SA before and pushed past it for ones with good plot or they have a lot of ones where they get SA’d once and they have a normal consenting relationship after that one time. I just don’t understand. I don’t know why it’s normalized in bl’s. I guess maybe some people fetishized it or some authors use it as to show the horrors of abusive relationships. But it’s become so common place that yoai with two consenting men is rare these days.
The labeling on manga go isn't very good and they need to add a label for SA. I have come across many surprises while reading, but as long as the story line is good I just push past it. In regards to normalized, it depends in who the author is and where they live. The definition of SA where you live may be different than where they live, so it will reflect in how they present/handle certain topics. Truthfully, I just think most of these authors have a R4pe kink and these stories where never meant to be mainstream, but social media brought a population of people who honestly should not be reading/entering these heavy or dark spaces. Most of these stories are straight p0rn , and have been for a LONG time, and should be treated as such. Unfortunately, other than reading the summary or comments, you are doing everything you can. It's up to the website itself to fix its labeling issue.
ATP just expect that there will be SA. These are 18 and up smut BL manhwas and I have given up on NOT encountering it. （￣へ￣）Remember to filter your search people and protect your peace!
