Guys I think the phase is over

So you were just straight women fetishizing gay men. Glad you grew up!

I fear you are completely wrong Ppl can read a genre without it being a fetish

Mmm nah. Most yaois itself fetishise mlm relationships, so theres a high chance that a person who only reads yaoi also fetishises mlm relationships (could call the venn diagram a circle atp)

I'll make it worse for u I was a gay trans male too yeah I'm a straight woman now and I just read for the storyline but I'll definitely bury this site when I get in a relationship and get married

You don't know the amount of MARRIED women some are mothers too that read yaoi here </3 I've been here before the comments were a thing and so when they were I'd read the comments till like page 10 and the AMOUNT OF FETISHES made me realise "wtf am I doing acting like these ppl"

Wtf, So you were one of those who said they wished they were men to create yaoi?

I still read yaoi most of the time, but if i see that it has a lot of sex and no well-written story, just sex, i already see it as a reason to abandon it regardless of whether be straight or not straight. If i want to see sex i watch porn, i'm here to read something good.

A good part of them actually read it out of pure fetish, while others only include it in their reading package when they find something that is really good and well developed without focusing only on sex, r3pe, kidnapping, etc. Unfortunately, finding both yaoi and hetero manhwas without insinuations of r3pe and 64h sex is difficult. More wholesome stories tend to not be famous and end up remaining in the shadows.

I think that if you re not into some mlxml fetish stuff you would eventually grow up from that phase of reading mainly yaoi and its smut and start reading other genres for the good plots and the occasional love chaps

Exactly! I abandon any that are mainly sex or r3pe. I want character development and story progression!! I just don't mind if it's straight or yaoi or yuri

Honestly I've only seen one person who had a genuine fetish on here and it was rape. Weird asf but I guarantee you most people you meet IRL or even online who read BL along with other genres do not fit into that stereotype

This is totally agree with, I've since moved on to straight romances because it's very rare for a BL to have a solid plot line. Even Define the Relationship had a rape scene towards the end that threw me totally off

I can't stand the typical: "you say no, but look how wet you are" anymore. This has become so disgusting over time that i simply don't even wait to get to the end, i just give up halfway through. When it's something focused on psychological horror without the addition of romance, i already understand that it's part of it, unfortunately, now when they include romance i already know that there will be romanticization of this shit.

Me when i read roses and champagne, the story line was SO GOOD, but then they inserted a VERY unnecessary rape arc and my heart broke into pieces. i still remember ranting to a friend of mine about it and he just kept saying "its good tho" as i was telling him the initial story and i had to keep say "it will go downhill just wait" again and again

Fr tho!! Interesting story but there's so much unnecessary tape that just ruins it for me. After every event they have good moments but then it gets thrown down the drain so quick. Wanted to like it so bad but it's just so awful
