Been reading yaoi for... almost a decade now, and kindah gotten use to this trope. I know its not ideal, I know its not realistic, but this is fiction...

Me too, almost a decade!!! I have read so many yaoi with rape i just dont care anymore~ ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ but i still have standards, like "tolerable rape" (example hidoku shinaide, abarenbo honey and etc) to "i hate this rape" (example, harami bara, Dos Obake Ga Nekasetekurenai and etc) which i dont read anymore if i dont like it..

yep, that's why i used the word 'rape', I didn't call it anything but that.. But in the world of Yaoi it exists, ALOT... and if you don't want to run into it, you prob should avoid the genre as you will be screaming rape several times a day. I can differentiate between real life and comics... rape is a horrible crime.. and reading it in a yaoi mag is not going to desensitize me to that. I enjoy BL, and unfortunately it includes rape scenarios often.. I have come to except that as the MO, but the level of darkness, for me personally, is what controls if I will continue to the read the story. And that's how "I" censor..

Let me copy-paste this comment i saw above..
aDDictedToYaoi:
"Rape is not a way to get someone to realize their 'affection' for you"
This is where you are wrong, my friend. I am not excusing rape. I am talking about fantasy rape.
Let me quote this, "Rape, used as an essential plot device, serves the purpose of bringing the two characters together in a romantic relationship. Rape functions as the catalyst for romance, speeding up the process of falling in love while providing explicit sexual scenes to arouse and pleasure the viewer. Because sex is the plot in yaoi , unnecessarily long relationship developments are eliminated. However vulgar rape may seem, it effciently creates sex and romance in yaoi . Once the two characters are together and the feelings are mutual, there ceases to be a plot-based need for “rape as an expression of love” between the seme and uke and the sex thereafter is entirely consensual."
