Why is it every single time a “pretty” top and especially a cross dressing top specifically is always written in Asian media as a manipulative man eater who specifically targets and preys on “straight” men and either tricks them into dubious consented sex or straight up rape. It’s every single cross dressing top. I’m not even exaggerating. It’s every single one. Like there are real life drag queens/cross dressing men who are actual tops who have sex with men who like men and do not feel the need to trick and assault their romantic/ sexual partners, BL has decided this specific trope is super super funny because isn’t it hilarious that this dumb guy be tricked by fake pussy into giving up his bussy. It’s seriously problematic.
I agree, but not every "pretty" top is like that though? take Reincarnated into Demon King Evelogia's World for example. There's this one too that I read back then but I forgot the title.
I agree sometimes I wish that we could get a crossdressing top in a healthy relationship without some blackmail and coercion at play

- didn't care for the second couple.
I’ve definitely seen a pattern of it and it’s not just bl but also SL where a woman finds another woman attractive but it turns out it’s a guy who likes to dress in drag. There’s nothing wrong with having a pretty ml who likes feminine things since there are a lot of good stories out there like princess jellyfish etc, but the smut ones just make it seem like these specific types of men are predatory. It also doesn’t help that people irl already have such a personal vendetta against drag queens and trans woman for this exact reason as well.
Try reading the first story in shisen no toriko. Their story is pretty wholesome.

Strange is short but so good. I kinda wish the author made a sequel of it

Crossdresser Therapy- Make Me a Shameless Bottom is surprisingly decent read despite its title and cover lol

Oh dang I forgot to erase circle. I wanted to rec it but after rereading the story, kinda realized the 2nd pair is a bit of a hot mess.
This is bittersweet. Us knowing that while he won’t vocalize it, Sonic is the most important person to Flash, but Sonic in real life and in this warped manipulative both want Flash’s downfall but for totally different reasons.
If you have feelings for him and want him to rely on you just say it not this sexually assault him and blackmail b.s. how’s anyone suppose to trust you with this stupid logic.
So MC is going to rape his crush while he’s in rut and because alpha will feel bad for “traumatizing” his rapist who he thinks of as family and coddled they’ll fall into a “relationship” is what I’m essentially getting from this plot. Someone correct me if I’m wrong.
but he's a beta qo he can't be in rut?
But it seems very rapey, I agree :(
The I love you so it’s okay I know you’ll allow me to
Rape you seme strikes again.
The more we learn about wonwoo’s family the more I wish he had gone no contact. They seem awful and then to be forced to put your homophobic bro up for some nights despite your shit mother and abusive father doing fuck all is insulting. The homophobic bro only came around after being gifted something priceless even then it was disingenuous. Fuck wonwoo’s family.
I don’t even know if I should feel vindicated that my previous post about this manwha being the same tired toxic ml and cowardly MC who will be forcibly be roped into some twisted obsession turned out accurate. It’s like all these writers truly can’t think of anything original and rely on the same tried and true romanticized toxic dynamic because it sold for BJ Alex, Painter of the Night, Man of Virture etc and now the genre can only make similar plots because it’s the cycle of writer and readers only writing and consuming these types of abusive works.
The fact that you're putting time and energy into something you know you dislike, instead of just ignoring it and finding stuff you actually personally like and fit your preferences..
Just move on if something's not doing it for you, leave it for the rest of us to enjoy.
I read newer chapters as my first post was with only one chapter available to come to a complete opinion. Hence my reference to my original post.I’m not reading this further. Secondly it shouldn’t matter that I read this or not if I can predict the entire plot from one chapter is my point. It’s not good writing. Enjoy.
I haven't read POTN even though I'd bought it bcz of the ick factor.
I'd have to disagree with the Man of Virtue though...that one is in the fantasy realm and it's funny ASF.
I think it's really good and deep and the art is mesmerizing. Whether something more perverse happens down the line will be seen. So far it's grabbed my interest.
The fact that the ML kidnaps, rapes, and hold hostage within a span of 24 hours the “mother” of his all but certain secret love child and for this plot to progress to a romance DESPITE this is some real brain dead delusions. I’m done. How do people defend this shit as EnTertaining
So we are getting your typical reunion story with a typical piece of shit ML. Plus a scenario that makes zero sense in why someone would resume a relationship with someone who’s actively fucking someone close to MC and will contextualize the ML as your standard hyper sexual with little feelings but somehow our MC is “special” because reasons and MC can’t truly stay away from ML despite the blaring red flags that make it quite obvious ML will be an emotional manipulator/sexual pest. Throw in some likely rape or coercive sex spurred on by blackmail of some sort and there you have it. Here’s to hoping I’m wrong.
PLEASE THIS HAD ME LAUGHING
lame ahh paragraph, nb reading this shit, your paragraph had no plot. I’ve seen these paragraphs before, just a bunch of complaints you get from your ass. Literally ppl like reading ts nd if you’re so upset bout the plot then stick an umbrella up your ass nd open it.
You seriously need help if youre this roid rage over this cliche a story. Touch grass babe.
womp womp womp. You’re blowing steam over a cliche plot. You wrote a whole paragraph rebecca expressing your displeasure. Flush your phone down the toilet pookie.
This is the comment section. They're free to write what they want, just like how you're free to rage over their opinion. Not everyone is going to validate your personal view over the story, deal with it, instead of trying to get a reaction out of the person that simply doesn't share the same view. This gives off toddler vibes. Then again, who am i to stop you. It's your choice to spent your free time this way. Have fun getting angry, it still won't validate your personal feelings though. This you ought to know.
I just wish I could read a BL now a days without some element of sexual violence. When you have Harry Styles play a gay cop and the bullshit out of his mouth is he’s shocked mlm love and sexual experiences can even be portrayed as soft and loving this is the reason why those who complain so much about the constant rape in BL see how it affects how people perceive sex and romance when they have only the learned and internalize imagery from popular media depictions. I know this is a dark plot and our ML is emotionally/mentally unwell, but what purpose those raping the MC actually serve?
Totally agree
it’s in literally everything now and you can actually see people becoming completely desensitized. also it’s just not good writing at all.
