as a raw reader, I can say ML almost slept with other omega who looked like MC. when I say, "almost", they're already in bed, this random omega already in bathrobe, ML hovering on top of him.
as a novel reader, I'd say that other than the incident above, ML was never able to sleep with other people as he cannot stomach their pheromones.
I’ll be honest, I just don’t like Hoe Bottom or Top. And that’s because I grew up in conservative Asian household, so yeah. I got used to Harems finally (if all end up with each other), but I HATE and forever will hate bottoms and tops that sleep around and being indecisive.
It’s fine if they sleep around, but not too much and I more hate the indecisiveness, no condoms type of shit.
I hear you!
I get so uncomfortable when I see the pair in a comic or novel have sex with other people and it’s like explicitly drawn/described. It makes the sex (to me) not feel special at all when the couple does it.
In real life it’s a whole other beast cuz our upbringing, societal views, experiences, insecurities, and preferences are all so different. And how we feel about people sleeping with others is different and varied as well. And it’s almost inevitable. In real life I think because we are real beings and have human consciousness and complexities it’s much easier to accept and not take personally the sex lives of others. And because people are people, as a society we do our best to not slut shame or judge others on their choices. And we can even find partners who fit our needs emotionally and sexually as well. So for me in real life, I might get jealous if they’re my partner of their past experiences and my partner might be that way about mine, but real life relationships and experiences are completely different and way more complex, and we accept that. Which is understandable.
But in comics and art, I don’t wanna see that at all. Like these are not human beings and I don’t place my same morals on these 2D characters. So when authors make me see tops and bottoms fuck other people, I’m just over it. It makes me sad. I know it doesn’t bother others and that’s totally fine. It’s just my preference when it comes to comics about a couple. It happens a lot tho so I like to know ahead of time lol.
Just a long ass essay just to say: TLDR I feel you. I feel differently from real life and comics. And it’s okay to have preferences in any direction without judgement.
I mean there's a reason wives of actors don't see the movies of their husbands. It's not just you nobody wants to see this. When you're reading a story, you imagine yourself as the character so you can connect to them and feel their emotions and when they show explicit infidelity scenes, it just bother you for the rest of the story.
Anyone who’s read the novel or raws know if the top sleeps with other people? Thanks!
