This is such a dumb question but when can you tell when a queer story isn’t made for its own community?

heteronormative dynamics in relationships + when those dynamics drive the development of the story/relationship. also the "im straight but gay only for you" trope. thankfully, i learned from my mistake with bl and only read quality gl works so idk if gl does this as well, but boy do i know that the majority of the bl here falls under that "queer stories for straight people" category.

When it’s very realistic, and touch up on topics like homophobia. Straight people can write realistically about queer relationships, but I feel like when it’s written by a queer person, it feels a lot more real and a lot of queer people tend to write about their experiences like “Until I meet my husband” I didn’t even need to know. It was written by a gay man from the first few chapters I could tell it was from a queer person because of how realistic and raw it was

If we're talking abt the stuff on here, simple: if it has porny logic (men doing it w no prep or foreplay, feeling amazing the first time. Women being atrociously sensitive to any minimal touch etc etc)
Mainly when if you changed the gender of one of them you would've a plain straight couple bc they assigned the hetero roles to each character. When you can see the struggle, the fear, the anxiety of one's own identity and complexity of their every relationship with others you can tell its made by and for the queers

Randomly stumbled upon this novel but for any guideverse lovers it seems worth reading https://springofromance.com/story/dazzling-breath/

it’s ongoing 21 chapters very underrated I found a forum on nu to find out more and based on what I’ve seen no rape/non con the mc and ml are green flags and the plot and characters are very interesting !!! There’s even women characters that are described as muscular (which is pretty rare imo and I just find that neat)

Still mad at my damn doll for laughing (when it was pressed on the chest it laughs) even when it had no batteries in my dark ass room while I had to cry myself to sleep anyways moral of the story don’t buy giant dolls that laugh

FRR and having it so close would be the worst move. I didn’t wanna type so much but I had a bunk bed but no one slept on the top, I put my toys up there and when it laughed the entire bed was shaking lmao so yeah burning it would have been the best option (although I can’t remember what happened to it since I was like 6)

Maybe it just wanted love

And definetely don't buy a huge ass doll
I had a 150cm teddy bear from my mom but i donate it to someone else cause i just can't take it anymore..it's eyes is GLARING at me EVERY NIGHT
Every single one of my friend ask me "what if that doll suddenly came to life?"
Knowing i'm the most coward when it comes to horror.. some friends they are (╬ ̄皿 ̄)凸

Yk you’ve lost it when you start tweaking over a non canon ship of eldritch monster x average (not so average) guy who just wants to go home ☠

I simplified it to the max but its a ship from https://mythicregressor.com/series/got-dropped-into-a-ghost-story-still-gotta-work/ the “average”guy in question is the mc and I highly recommend reading it for a fun time !

Something I can really appreciate from this site is how genuine the advice can be. Whether it be someone who vents and uses this site or someone who cannot talk to irls about a certain issue. I’ve seen many times a lot of people being helped by strangers online even if it’s just simple advice at times, it’s still something I admire taking the time to reply and genuinely try to help or sharing other life experiences so others don’t feel so lonely.. idk where I’m going with this but hopefully it makes sense. It gives me a little bit of hope in humanity very strange but that’s just how I feel lol
