Listen, i may not read rape/non-con because that's not my cup of tea, but for god's sake-it's fiction. What do you care if someone else reads it? Why do people make it a point of honor to repeatedly point out that something "sends a wrong message"?
Like, it's really not the radical feminist praxis you think it is. It's the opposite. It's patronizing and it's echoing sentiments of purity culture fanatics.
Adult women understand that rape is wrong (if you're a KID you shouldn't be here in the first place). They understand that excessive jealousy and possessiveness are not healthy. They know that some lines and actions in books/webtoons/manga or any media are sexist and abusive.
It doesn't change the fact that the phenomena of liking these things has nothing to do with what we condone as members of society. It's just a fantasy and those fantasies, as I said, are not "wrong" or "disgusting" or "weird" because they DON'T happen irl, no one gets hurt no one gets affected and those stories become likable to some for this very same reason. We dislike a crime and any form of abuse because it hurts us and others. That's not what's happening here.
The bottom line is this: it's perfectly fine to dislike whatever you want. It's fine to comment that you don't like certain tropes. We all have our hard limits and want to express ourselves. But please, don't go around making others feel weird or wrong for liking something you dislike , because if anything, this shows that you're the one with the problem and the lack of empathy.
