I think you're either ignoring any sort of nuance or your post is just worded badly. Media influences people and people influence media, bl in the 90s had a very normalised rape culture, which obviously had a negative effect on the people reading it, I can't tell you how many times I heard an older fujo say "you cant rape a man" or "its not like i......
Japanese mangas all the way. From art to plot, it's just better. Korean manhwas are just so problematic, not to say that Japanese mangas aren't, but Jinx, Killing stalking and Sheep's mask are prime examples of psychotic.

I swear one of these days ima find out where they live and murder their asses Also those stupid ass “omg he’s so kawaii (≧∀≦)” fuckers I hate them so goddamn much .......

That is all there is to it and I think it was handled well.
On the topic of rape in media, I would like to discuss fiction vs morality and how that line is interchangeable. I’ve been reading BL on this website for 5 years, I’ve been reading other romance manga way longer. We’ve all seen the same thing over and over. Rape is normalized in yaoi culture, it’s the truth whether you like it or not. You can say that you can tell fiction from reality but that only shows where your morals lay. Do you enjoy it? Is the normal stuff boring? Do you need something more exciting? Why is it ok in fiction for someone to be forcibly taken against their will? So you can get off?
Let me use a different perspective: gore. I love horror but do I enjoy torture gore? Of course not and most people who do don’t turn out to be the best of people. People who glorify gore in media usually end up harming someone else. People who are desensitized to gore still, say it with me now, SEE IT AS A TERRIBLE THING. This is especially the case in rape in media and why it shouldn’t be glorified. YOU might not even THINK about harming someone in that way but because it’s so normalized others think they can do the same. This is an especially sad case in BL media as women glorify it to such a disgusting extent, but let it be a woman in that place and suddenly it’s a problem.
This is especially disgusting when a child is involved. There is no separation of fiction and reality when you acknowledge what you’re reading is wrong. Do you enjoy reading child porn? Even if it’s fictional, do you find it ok? If your answer is yes then I would like to direct you to a book called Lolita, where a little girl is raped by her step father. She thought it was consensual so it must be fine bc it’s fiction, correct? You people only excuse it when it’s attractive young men/boys bc you’re perverts. Read as much smut as you want, I won’t judge you for indulging in lust but who you are as a person is shit to me when you erase your morals to get off. I don’t care if you’re a woman reading BL as I am one doing the same but rape should not be normalized in this type of media.
I’m not usually the type to complain, I just wanted to get this off my chest. I usually tag it as “Do not read” and move on. I will not be replying to any comments under this as it is just a rant. If you have a problem, downvote and move on bc I will not being hearing you out. I’ve already heard the same argument over, and over, and over again. It’s just frustrating not being a bale to enjoy a media I used to enjoy a lot.
(I would also like to point out that Lolita is a great book in the POV of the child’s predator, framing him as the bad guy the entire book but when it was made into a movie it made the little girl a temptress who seduces her step father bc critics couldn’t see that it was demonizing pedophila. Critics saw it as a romance instead which is another point I would like to make.)
TL;DR:
Fuck you rape normalizing mfs. If you don’t excuse pedophila in media why do you enjoy rape? You’re just as bad as the incels on Twitter who tweet abt their 3000 year old waifus who look like literal infants. Idc talk to a wall or block me.
OK there are so many things that I have issues with, but my biggest one is when they casually toss around the terms “seme” and “uke” in everyday relationships. It’s already bad enough when you automatically assume every gay relationship must have a designated “top” and “bottom”...using “seme” and “uke” just amplifies that ......
Just a real adult romance bl with, real situations and real love. An example lover boy, not necessarily there for the age gap dubiousness but the emotions they had between each other. Less trauma more drama basically.
goofy ass seme who rapes and sexually assults the uke multiple times but they uke is too fucking fragile to stand up for himself then the viewers applaud them both for being such a "cute couple" like shut the fuck up HE RAPED HIM AND HES JUSG OUTTING UP WITB IT WHEEE IS YOU CRKEKCMINB SBEDJSE DOSIY YIUBDUNERSETADN WHATRBBRIKKNKEANIN
In Bl: When the mc/ml says something to the likes of "I'm straight/not gay" (while being in a gay relationship), using the phrase "originally straight". Just when the character/s denies being attracted to men except the ml, etc. Also noncon and romanticized rape. I don't care about fucked up things in fiction but at least show them as the horrors......



The “cock slam inside the ass” will not happen anytime soon if you read what this is based off of, for now it will continue to slow burn. This is clearly not the quick paced “everyone is gay, no pussy in sight” kind of piece and has a much more realistic, harsh approach heavy on plot. Right at this point neither of those characters even thought beyond heterosexuality and as you can see, Zhenya is the first slowly breaking that, albeit at the moment more so unconsciously. Given how sexual and pleasure/excitement seeking he is, he wants to fuck and he’s certainly not going to fuck a man, not by this time in the plot, and neither will Taekjoo. This is actually an excellent way to make Zhenya interested in Taekjoo sexually (although in a quite twisted way) without breaking their character.
It is still yaoi, the main focus are the two men who /will/ screw eventually.
I would love to understand the outcry about what I’ve just seen but even as a gay man I don’t understand the genuine anger directed at a mere threesome as if the woman has any larger role in the plot besides being a shared cock sleeve.
