Tell me, do they have a safe word? Or did they discuss beforehand that this kind of thing is okay in the future and such? If yes, tell me the chapter please, then I will agree with you and take my words back, if no then it’s SA no matter how u wanna put it. This kind of excuse is used for a lot of Yaoi, it seems connected to gender roles as well and the trope in which women also have to be shy and unwilling on the outside but they actually “really want it”. Sorry, not how that works. Unless explicitly specified in the relationship beforehand, words like “stop”, “I can’t” and “no more” etc. mean NO. Sorry that’s not consent. “He’s just embarrassed”, “He can’t express himself”, “He actually likes it”, that kind of excuses have been used times and times again, both in fiction and real life. But it doesn’t surprise me that people on this website and Yaoi enjoyers defend this kind of thing. 90% of Yaoi’s have some kind of SA and people love it, so I’m used to r*pe apologists.
I used to, but if it’s the same story and same characters that ruins them for me anyways. Since that’s their character design, so it isn’t really a matter of censored or not censored story. I knew this comment would get dislikes and disagreements cause I’m painfully aware of how Yaoi fans are, I just left it to express my opinion and for people who may want to read the story but wanna know if it’s safe. Since I know quite a few who also been burned and check comments beforehand to make sure it doesn’t have this kind of things
Don’t expect anything else from this audience. I’ve been reading yaoi/BL for nearly two decades and while there are some gems I’ve learned that this genre despite it being written by women for women is just about finding that piece of gold among shit. And you’ll shift through a lot of shit. I will never understand but hey I’m a gay man so what do I know, stories written “about me” don’t deserve actual consideration, not like that’s new.
I’m a queer woman, and I’m actually aroace, but I enjoy sexual conent and with men it’s easier cause of lack of misogyny, sexualization of women and sexist gender roles that are usually in other stuff, overall toxic portrayal of women in sexual media. But I’ve also been reading BL for years and noticed that misogyny and gender roles do exist in here, but they are enforced onto gay men. This is an equivalent of lesbian porn for straight men, just for straight women.
And I 100% agree with you on that, it’s about finding a diamond among garbage, very rare and hard to find. Rn, I ask in comments before I even start reading anything because both me and my friends have been burnt too many times. This one though, was one of my first ones, I had such fond memories of it so it was very disappointing.
I’m also very sorry you have to put up with that as a gay man. I really can’t stand women who fetishize gay guys, but in recent years it’s like a trend. I can’t stand it.
I’m all for freaky stuff as long as it’s consensual, that usually means safe word. If you gonna have more than vanilla sex then it has to be properly communicated, otherwise it’s just abuse no matter how u wanna sell it. And it’s really not that hard to mention once in the story that safe word exists, magically even the most insane shit becomes consensual then. It’s not hard dude

get your head out of your ass for a minute and know that having a safe word isnt universal. and if you had read the story fr, you'd know shin isn't a character who'd tolerate anything he doesnt like. if it was non-con, he'd say it. sometimes, negative notions comes out as a reflex of overstimulation and not because they arent enjoying it or feeling forced. and most importantly, dont like, dont read, dont comment shit that is irrelevant
Lmao I knew you would get aggressive fast, didn’t expect anything more from someone who reads shit like Jinx. I also know what Shin is like, but authors intention don’t matter that much to me. It also matters to me how things come out, and are portrayed, because in case you didn’t know media influences how people view things and act in real life too. Also, safe word isn’t always necessary, but these things should be talked about beforehand. I just mentioned explicit communication about whether they are okay with this or not. And I also said, I will take my words back if u can direct me to the chapter where they actually talk about this. Because if you know anything about SA you should also know how harmful it is to say stuff like “He secretly wanted it”, “If he didn’t like it he would’ve said so”, “He was just embarrassed, but he actually enjoyed it”, that’s like 101 excuses that people use in these situations. It’s not about Shin himself, for me it’s about how the whole scene is portrayed.
Also, I already mentioned I’m gonna stop reading it lol But I still have a right to comment my final thoughts on it. And it’s not irrelevant lol Many people check comments before reading smth and believe it or not many people don’t like this kind of sudden nonsense. People are allowed to express their opinions and if u have an issue with that then don’t use internet
I liked this story, I can’t believe it turned into typical Yaoi with fetishization of what would normally be considered SA. I’m glad I stopped reading a while ago
