I’m curious on yalls theories on why you think Jaekyoung is the way he is. Personally for me maybe he has some sexual trauma? Maybe from his childhood or teenhood? Something that made him develop the “Jinx”
Some people are just fucked up. Look at Diddy. He probably won a match after fucking someone and now does it as a ritual. Athletes/performers wear specific colored underwear or do weird things before because they believe in superstitions. He probably does believe in it but he’s using it to abuse people.
If jaekyoungs “redemption” isn’t like the top from The Third Ending I’m dropping Jinx
HELL NO i been reading that darn story since the chapter where they still in highschool where still coming out and i never been more frustrated with a darn story more than that to this day they there’s been no sign of a consistent healthy relationship no darn story should take this longgggg to develop like that one the freaking dog is the only stable thing in that darn story
Oh absolutely. I wouldn’t call yoonseul’s stuff a redemption, but more of like… a do-over? Or a third chance, even (I’m not funny lmfao). But yeah, I get your point, yoonseul was groveling, crying, on the floor BEGGING. Jaekyung better at LEAST be doin that shit. He better be BEGGING and fucking DESPERATE (╬ ̄皿 ̄)
Is Euihyun even still pregnant? The author is giving hints that he is but I thought he took the abortion pills? Or did it not show him taking the meds???
I’m 99% sure he is because in the scene at the hospital in ch71 the doctor says “we can’t test at two weeks…” which is true. You can’t tell if you’re pregnant until 4-6 weeks which is prob why they’re delaying the reveal. Also the jellyfish dream was def a premonition dream and in korea those only happen when you’re pregnant.
Some of y’all gotta realize that this story is progressing story cause… it’s gonna be long ass story. I see us getting close to another 60 chapters with how slowly things progress and then we would need to see Potato and Heesungs story, as well as Kim Dan and Jaekyoungs side stories. Jinx is gonna be long as fuck! I may not like it but I understand why things progress so slowly
I’m not denying the toxicity but I’m curious as to why this story gets so much hate in comparison to stories like roses and Champaign? They’re both really toxic and yet people love on Cesear way more but more people hate Jaekyung (Not hating on Roses and Champaign I’m just curious as to why it’s hated on less)
i think it’s because those characters(potn, taeju, etc)showed signs of character development. they were all SUUUPER toxic don’t get me wrong but jk hasn’t really shown any signs of development or understanding so far. in the series mentioned above, the authors were pretty careful in showing various signs of shreds of humanity within them. i’m not defending these characters of being “good” guys, because they absolutely were not(potn author i think even said that seungho was not supposed to be a good guy) just that the authors did a good job of making a carefully crafted story of redemption out of very bad men and where that originated from. a lot of readers aren’t really seeing that kind of story or origin from jk so far, just a circle of toxicity and assault.
and maybe this story isn’t supposed to have redemption, unlike the previous author’s work, which is totally fine. it’s all a matter of perspective and opinion
(please don’t attack or flay or be mean since i’m just trying to explain from the other side
No clue, personally I haven’t read this story because this author is known for their shitty tropes. I just think people ignore it because they’ve already had their “redemption” arc. Definitely not an excuse I rlly hate stories that implement these toxic/ grapey stereotypes. It makes Yaoi look bad and stereotypes the relationships of real gay ppl
ngl i read this and thought “grapey” was a new trope i didn’t know about
then i realized you meant “rapey”
yes i am stupid
it’s honestly really sad that rape is such a constant trope in yaoi, and that dubcon is basically considered consensual. if anyone reads yaoi and thinks that this is what actual gay relationships are like then that’s just sad, oblivious, and nonsensical.
In my opinion, it's because in all those stories there is even a small hint (or much more) of lust, love, or even obsession coming from the ml. But in this story for 51 fucking chapters, there is NONE. Not a single hint of respect, love, affection, chemistry, NOT EVEN LUST. Pure indifference, arrogance, and a god complex. I would put it closer to the genre of Killing stalking (not bl), than the ones mentioned above. At the same time I'm not saying the others should be considered normal and non toxic, I'm just comparing them in terms of emotions and feelings shown by the ml.
Jinx has a lot of potential I won’t lie. I also won’t deny it’s incredibly toxic and abusive. However I think this story could’ve developed so much smoother if it just uploaded more frequently. Having multiple chapters where things just… don’t progress doesn’t work when the story takes 10 days to upload
Yknow part of me is so curious why rape is so common in BL stories. Any thoughts? I’ve thought about it and maybe it’s due to the rape culture in Asian countries? Many men fetishize rape so is it women with rape fetishes or women trying to “balance the scale?”
Rape? In the most recent chapter?
That can be seen in a lot of eastern mature content in general, what would constitute as rape would simply be played off as being shy or a little fun resistance. This is apparent in both male and female targeted content, and really, I think it has more to do with the power dynamic than the actual act itself. Like some people would like to get dominated and overpowered in bed, but not raped, like there has to be safe word so my partner knows when to actually stop, and on the same side, I know some people would like to dominate and overpower there partner in bed but not actually hurt them, again the implementation of a safe word or signal to let them know they're going to far and to seriously stop.
Now power dynamics are not the only reason, there are a lot of reasons, but I feel like that's the best way to explain since I'm not the most qualified to.
i mean what would you call it? intoxicated people cannot give consent and sex minus consent = rape
i wonder the same as well bc it’s way too common. dark fantasies of the author maybe?
In Heesung's defense, I think they were both intoxicated, but you're absolutely right.
exactly they both were but i think we can tell from the way Heesung is speaking that potato was a lot more defenseless.
From what I read and heard from my friends' experiences (and from my own experience too), in reality having sex for men is so tiring, real life men just can cum once or twice, thrice if they can or could, more than that is just amazing.
Women in other side, they not really feel the tired the men experienced during sex, since the one who do the work more is the men. When women demand another round, men need time to charging their energy and sperms.
So I'm guessing, women use any kind of media ( from novel, fan fiction, comic or manga ) to fulfill the gap. As women can easily pour all kind of their fantasies, they can becomes wild. No line, no boundaries can tie their wild imaginations. We can write or draw every fantasies we like.
.
Or maybe we, women really have some naughty thoughts about sex but really shy to utter it with our partner, and tend to like for it to keep hidden. And what keep hidden will becomes wild when it release. Making something can release everything from our mind, so take a guess then what after that will coming, lol
.
But if the women using rape to "balance the scale", I think it's not quite right. If that really the cause, then women need to do something serious ab it.
.
So my point is, enjoy the fantasies in this site. All of them are fantasies ( esp BL ), we come here just to release some stress from real life burden, so don't take anything serious esp from BL mangas/Webtoon :))
Hope this can help^^
In my opinion it's because of the trope of handsome rich men liking someone and being possessive and imposing, and that passing through rape. It feels nice, fanfiction wise, a supposed powerful men liking you. When we see rape in manga/webtoons and etc, we as viewers forgive their behaviour because we know they're are either in love or are going to fall in love so it's like "ah it's OK bc I have feelings for you and me being forceful on you was my possessive way to show it". We overlook the rape because, we know, that at the end of the fucking story, everything will be sunshine and rainbows, their so toxic relationship will look nice now because finally the rapist treats their partner better (most times just the fucking bare minimum). Like in Bj Alex, their relationship finally seemed good but STILL Alex would always demand sex when and where he wants, never stopping at round 1 and doing whatever pleased his dick (who cares about their bottom? not alex) and convincing DG that's what he wanted, in the end he had no choice or else no boyfriend.
In the end I personally believe rape is popular because some people like that the character had no choice, but everything is fine! they enjoyed it in the end. They will end up together so what matters. They like each other so what's the point.
Sexual assault by a person known to the victim accounted for 646 (76%) cases. The majority of these assailants (68%) were described as acquaintances; 139 (21%) were current or previous boyfriends or spouses (Jones JS, Wynn BN, Kroeze B, Dunnuck C, Rossman L. Comparison of sexual assaults by strangers versus known assailants in a community-based population. Am J Emerg Med. 2004;22(6):454-459. doi:10.1016/j.ajem.2004.07.020) My point is we only acknowledge rape made by strangers and family members and the others above.
(sorry if it is confusing, I'm aware I repeat myself and don't really follow a line of thought but whatever I think my point is understanding enough)
Actually there are men who can do 3-4 rounds w/o resting, just change condoms and do it again. But, mostly they could do 2 and rest in between. The problem is if they cum like about 3-5 mins. That be really bad.
And you’re right everything in BL manhwas are exaggerated and should be taken as just fiction, in reality anal sex isn’t easy to do as how they casually do it in manhwas the bottoms usually prepare for it or it’ll get messy.
Rape in BL is not all about sex it’s about POWER. It’s too unrealistic to see so many instances of non consent in a love story or relationship. But...we readers like UNREALISTIC! That’s what makes it fun and engaging to read.
Rape fetish is normal and healthy especially for women.
