Exactly how I'd describe it

Igawa was already in love with for a long time...though

I feel like like he was bi and never realized it, also he didn't "resist" wholeheartedly. (Coming from someone who's been raped) if he wholeheartedly refused and the other dude continued, it would be a problem. Not to say this isn't a fine line between rape, plus yaoi in general has a problem with glossing over legitimate rape or blackmail.

True dat

How in the hell does your comment have dislikes? People are truly sick to disagree

its fiction and I do believe that everyone is entitled to their own opinion and some things aren't offensive to certain people.

also, the "turn a straight guy gay" trope is very very common in gay porn/yaoi, not sure why but that's just a fact I wanna put out there.

Yeah, people are entitled to their opinions, but rape isn't a topic that's up for debate on whether or not it's okay to romanticize and condone. It's wrong, period. This isn't an attack on you, btw. I'm just disappointed at the amount of people that don't see the problem with stuff like this

I've been reading yaoi for over 7 years. I know exactly how common it is lol it's basically every other story, but that's not what my original comment was about. It was more about people disagreeing about the whole rape thing ( ⊙…⊙ )

This is fiction though, no one interacts with each other like they do in yaoi. that is like expecting the unrealistic romance shown in shoujo/yaoi manga, it's not the fault of the author if a dumbass thinks it realistic. it would be different if it was done on film/was a movie, as that is very hard to separate from reality in most cases.

if anyone takes this porn seriously (In regards to its portrayal of consent and sexuality) they already have something fucked up in their head.

OwO I don’t really get what’s going oh so continue ur conversation imma go hide in the corner

Nothing is really going on lol I was just shocked that people were downvoting the op's comment about them not liking the whole "rape a straight guy and make them gay" trope. I know it's fiction and isn't real, but rape is something that's hard for me to wrap my mind around, especially considering me being a survivor. Seeing how often it's romanticized and used in tropes makes me uncomfortable. No hate to the people that read stories like this though. I don't mean to judge or snap. Sometimes, I get triggered (especially if there are no warnings of rape in the tags/lists/comments) and will, in the heat of the moment (hence my orginal comment) forget it's not real as well as forget just bc a person reads it doesn't mean they condone it in real life

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh okie yeah I get triggered too

I am aware that its an unrealistic portrayal of gay relationships
My comment was directed at the fact this trope is so commonly used
Everyone has there own turn-ons im not trying to kink shame. But as a person of the LGBT+ community myself i have noticed a vast majority of LGBT+ portrayals are oversexualized and fetishized
What im most worried about is the normalization of rape in these stories and that there are so many of them. As you mentioned some people are pretty dumb, reading a bunch of stories that make rape seem like its normal isnt good for anyone
I think artists and creators of all types should be aware of the affect there work could have on young inpressionable minds

I feel like the extremely dubious consent/basically rape trope is fading out of popularity, this not being written as often thankfully.

Also yes, if someone reads these and never seeks out further education on consent their definition of consent could be wrong, etc. Its just not specifically the authors fault. I didn't mean to come off so strong in the last comment, I just curse normally all the time lol
