Most of the BL manga reproduce all the toxic behaviours that are in the shoujo manga... you can see it in the figure of the uke, always being feminized. Moreover, the jealousy is always present as a sample of love, etc. well, however i guess that some bl try to go over that problem; i think that "Joshi BL" of Harada is a little example

I actually like Harada a lot for this reason they know they're playing into the stereotype associated with the genre, for example sexual violence, or jealousy but have made it so obviously warped with exaggerated vengeful glee, that the satirical nature and the discomfort they employ highlights these characteristics for the negatives that they are and forces the audience to acknowledge this. It's dark very dark, but the issues they bring up are real in nature not a romantic fictional excursion from reality that so many authors excuse.
Do people have thoughts about yaoi and it’s relationship with toxic masculinity? Is BL actually feminist when it adheres to stereotypes and violence? I am just pondering this question today?
