why are you all hating on the Brown haired guy and not the literally rapist of the mc

First, Brown hair guy he’s a hoe(so is the pink hair guy) and uses the mc like the trash he is, so it’s vaild for the comments to hate on him.
Second, I understand why you were calling mc(pink hair, btw he is our mc not black hair) a rapist, but he isn’t, this is all mutual agreement, they both gain something from this. Black hair wouldn’t willing go back to mc, his ‘rapist’, he is literally a higher status from him and can stop this anytime

every time I read this it reminds me of my grandpa, we too had to put him on a retirement home because of his alzheimer a few months ago and it's hard seeing him get worse but there are moments, like he doesn't remember me, but every time I visit without a fail, he tells me pretty in some way, either he calls me "that pretty lady" to someone else or he directly tells me himself, and it warms my heart because he was always used to shower me with compliments and it's like a part of him still remembers me
I hope nanjo ends up being the biggest red flag, because if not, then this is just another abuse story told as romance
?? How does nanjo being the biggest red flag make this better? Also how would it just be another abuse story told as romance if I can ask? In my pov, I don’t see any abuse physically, mentally, nor emotionally.
do you really not see as abuse coercing someone into having sex? or what about rimming them when they explicitly said they didn't want to? or forcing someone down (more than once) so you can have sex with them? do you not see that as abuse? even the Brown haired boy is abusive, he is decieving and manipulative, but the mc is too and way more
I guess I never saw it that way. I’ve always thought that it isn’t coercing someone into having sex, because mc and pink hair both get something from this, so I’ve never really realized. I didn’t really know abuse can stretch to that far if things, usually by abuse I think of the basics and never really thought too much on it. Thanks for answering tho
I recently revisited the yaoi I used to read years ago and realised how fucked up they were to the point some genuinely disgusted me and I had no desire to read on. I hadn't seen how bad it was when id first read it. I think our personal perspectives of morality and immorality is constantly changing and evolving.
If I'd read this manhwa a few years ago I'd think "he got consent so it's all fine", whilst I read it now thinking "this consent isn't sincere, it's coerced and not of his true wanting" and so I consider it abusive to the point of SA. It's not bad that you hadn't thought the same thing immediately too! It's about perspectives and how we've judged immorality before.
I'm reading this knowing it's not real but still realising that this is just coerced sex and SA. Cases like these in real life ARE difficult to prevent or legally navigate because it is grey, and because there is technical consent involved
Anyway, point being, don't feel silly. It's one of those things that is grey in real life too. You realising it's not as clear cut as it first seems is understanding enough :)
Aw thank you for saying this, I guess I do need to look at things in different ways.
