BL pet peeves?

what are your bl pet peeves? story, character, design, etc!

a couple of mine are like absolutely dense/stupid ukes. like the equivalent of blonde girls in horror movies. you can hold up a sign saying "THIS GUY WILL ASSAULT YOU" and theyll say some uwu "i can fix him" shit and never set their ground.
rape and assault *can* be used for story telling. it can be a powerful element of a tragic story. but its not used like that in 90% of bl. its just, totally avoidable rape for absolutely no reason???

as for nsfw pet peeves, the overly excessive "package" sizes is just...too much. you dont need allat. where is it going. it doesnt look hot it just looks weird. its so common now that you cant even say its for shock factor anymore cause id be more shocked to see a normal sized dick. on the genitalia note, WHY IS IT RED? IT LOOKS INFECTED?

also when a character, usually uke, is supposed to be cute and submissive but the author cant think of any way to portray this other than make them look and act like a fucking toddler

    This is why i don't read alot of manhwa when it comes to yaoi cuz I've never actually seen a normal sized "package", they were all abnormally HUGE and it just puts me off

    I also don't like it when one or both of the characters looks like actual kids, i used to not care much but now it really just disturbs me ☹

    I also agree w commenter above bcuz THEY ALWAYS BE ACCUSING SO MUCH WHEN THEY CAN JUST ASK PROPERLY OR LIKE ACTUALLY TRUST THEIR PARTNER???? I get so sick of it when the author uses it as a stepping stone for the characters relationship. I mean i understand some ppl are like that but its just so overused atp and I've never seen any characters who actually went and asked them properly

    when the chapter starts with them humping each other like bro what
    when the uke is a fucking crybaby and can't defend themselves not all of them but the stupid one
    when the top is pushing themselves to the uke and ending up "raping" them but the uke sees this as a normal thing LIKE ARE YOU CRAZY??
    and when it's a love triangle but the uke had hump them both before choosing the one
    the worst of all the i can't even read is when the story was good and it gets to the point where they finally had sex but it end up having sex every fucking chapter after that.
    WHEN THEY WONT COMMUNICATE WITH EACH OTHER AND JUST JUMP TO CONCLUSIONS

    Agreed with all the replied here!! ESPECIALLY THE ABNORMALLY HUGE MEAT STICK then they make the bottom a pinkie sized dick like why author??? This is why I mostly prefer manga! They even have pubic hair! (I haven't seen one in any manhwa) Plusss when the top don't prep the uke and doesn't use lube like bro that must hurt like a shit
