or it’s more like the readers act like the world will end if they don’t make a switch couple
Lmk the last time you've seen a switch couple lmao. This comment only makes sense if switch was even remotely more popular in fiction. Especially considering it's actually farely common irl to be a switch
hmm i see i understand, honestly i dont read about switches bc i only read manhwas that have an official english translation so i agree with what you’re saying i wish i can delete that dumb comment
yeah nw I'm j sad cuz I never see switches and I wish we saw them more cuz that would reflect reality a bit more if you're open to it, Pygmalion has switches (and it's a super cute story too!)
i’ve actually had that in my “want to read” list for a while so i’ll definitely read that later
I think punkinnlove is right though. Switch couples in mangas/manhwas/basic fiction is not popular so hence why they don't make a lot of appearances (Liebling! for example, love this manhwa so much but it wasn't popular. Same with Dark Heaven and 40x40). This is probably due to the fact that most consumers of yaoi are young women and hence, they make the characters in somewhat of a traditional gender based role - the bottom has to be pretty! and small enough to pick up.
Personally, for me, I love switches and I love my bottoms big and muscular (and older! but I also love the smaller ones as long as they don't act like damsels) but I've been consuming for a while now so I've grown past the whole traditional gender assignment. (づ￣ ³￣)づ But I am not the norm.
This so much and it gets annoying, they think everyone should be like that.
Well looking at the fact that most gay people irl are switches it's stupid how little representation switches have in bl
Hopefully they’ll be switching, I swear authors act like the world is gonna end if they make a switch couple
