oh i completely agree with you, nowadays it feels like rape around every corner, it’s quite sad really. it’s unnecessary and i wish it wasn’t so prevalent. it also irks me too, i avoid it all costs, that’s why i haven’t read many of the popular BLs XD
, well, anyway, here you go
i’ve been mostly reading novels lately so i only have a few comics to recc~ (=^･ω･^=)

I think its because many BL authors has small memory capacity, which is why they tend to overuse rape, fwb plots and other negative plots, since they arent that imaginative in doing stories and prioritize earning money through smut. Also what is being drawn and convey also reflects their mindset (like psychology thing).
Anyways I like this stories because the author really use a brain:
Dragons first crush
The rouge prince is an omega
And this BL stories I put in this list:

(Except BJ alex LOL) But I still put it because it is the earliest BL I read
I agree with you, but also it's way more than prevalent when it comes to straight manga too, I feel like it's just inevitable since both sides sexualize rape. With straight ones they seem to also come with a lot more misogyny too, even though women are the main demographic I also think you start to notice one more because its what we mostly read. And then there's the pedophilia and shit that comes with BOTH of them basically people aren't normal and both suck, but there are really good authors
I've been avoiding Yaoi for a few months now since most of them are all predictable and uncomfortable to read. Not to mention the unnecessary rape authors add to cover up the overused, boring plot. I always ask myself why rape is so fetishized in the BL community... Saw one comment on tiktok where they don't give a single shit about Taekjoo getting SA'd because they've been counting down the minutes until the main couple start to have sex. Oh, and also can you guess what the overused tropes that I mainly avoid in Yaoi comics? FWB & one-night stands. Are authors just like allergic to committed sex? It doesn't sound like a big of a deal, but it just irks me for some reasons. (Pls don't get offended for everyone has a different opinion)
That's the end of my rant. Do recommend some underrated BLs (=・ω・=)
