I can't believe there are still writers who follow old yaoi tropes these days, I thought we were past the "I'm raping you because I love you" thing. I'm trying to understand the writer's reasoning for this, is it for shock value? Is it a plot device to help us understand something later on? I can't bring myself to believing that they thought a guy being raped and humiliated repeatedly would be hot enough to stand on its own. Shame.

    Of course! How else am I gonna form an opinion on things? We must be critical of the content we consume.

    Nnn...

    You insulted and told a writer to have "shame" to be critical on the content you read?

    You know you could've fased it better.
    I get so mad at people like you who believe belittling people's work of fiction and measure it with reality. If you want reality stop off you phone...

    Comments like this drive people to suicide.

    Why does no one get it. Probably cause you never witnessed such an ending of a life.

    Just please stop it.

    "Shame" as in "what a shame", meaning: this could have turned out/been handled differently. That's all I'm going to say about this matter, since you seemed to have missed something in translation. I hope you don't let a complete stranger's opinion on the internet get to you, especially since you completely missed the point and projected onto my comment assumptions that were never there. No hard feelings. Have a good one and take care!
