ummm so, idk why but I was thinking about it and like, a lot of 'complex' villainess characters - they're complex due to the genre. As a category, they aren't very diverse and idk in doing so that makes them ig not complex as a result.
Like hear me out, if author writes a story about MC becoming the villainess, they aren't going to take the static villainess route from the hero's perspective, that's not going to be a 'good' or ig socially acceptable character would make more sense? So, they have to create the so-called complex character, not because it is complex, but because it's acceptable. They're complexity isn't really complexity as it is formulaic. They don't necessarily even know what makes a character complex, they just have to be able to 'side with the villainess' and that will eventually lead to a supposed complex character with varying motives.
But idk that's not ig real complexity, which I guess is not really complexity at this point (?). Like, I see some people complaining about the genericness of some characters and so on, but like, think about it this way. The author doesn't really have much of a choice in villainess plot. It's easier to make some tragic backstory than to create some sort of deep philosophical ideal as to why they might do so and so even if it's dangerous. Like, imo, the latter would be more jg controversial but more interesting. They can't risk people not agreeing or they just don't think of it. This leads to genericness and furthermore, a lack of ig real complexity... where the characters seem complex but really idk it's not that hard to make.
Umm the set up is already there. The MC is the villainess, thereby they usually automatically have faults. This is especially the case for if it's the villainess returning back in time. Something must have gone wrong and that usually (unless author is really stupid) leads to the necessary flaws. But when you think about it, is that really complex? You have the option to go back in time, the MC's fundamental personality has likely gone under severe reparations, then are those old personality traits still technically applicable as 'flaws'? I mean, yes they still remember but when I tried to consider them separately, idk I found that those fix-it villainess characters are pretty... uncomplex. Beyond regretting certain actions, they're not actually really all that special. I'd even argue that they're pretty uncomplex because now that they are living their second life they only really have 3 maybe 4 modes: regret, happiness at chance to redo things, bravery in face of time line change, and ig the lovey dovey.
Granted not all villainess reincarnation plots do this and it's not fair to say all of them are like this and that's not what I'm saying, but ig a lot of them are tbh, at least from what I've read. They all have the same base structure and idk, it seemed kind of weird to the point where it's not simply a matter of copying an idea.
Of course, I'm not saying your favourite character is dumb or anything, it's just something I thought of ig.
idk I can't sleep and finding a reason as to why so many reincarnation stories have similar character types seemed more interesting.
(this is so long and idk how I got here...)

I want to see if this websites positions on fujoshis have changed, you rock with fujos or nah.
im pretty sure no one is gonna ask me out so just preparing myself to do so =ω=
So my religious sister just saw my very queer Wattpad profile where I have written very gay fanfiction. My religious family knows I have Wattpad and I write fanfiction but they don't know I'm bi and that the fanfiction is gay. I told her I gave my password to a friend and they changed the profile but she saw my reading lists and shit and I'm utterly screwed. She wasn't using her account (which I have blocked) so I can't stop her. HELP!! What the fuck do I do?
im literally in class and my parents do the dirty and I heard EVERYTHING (I heard a bit too much ╥﹏╥)and im literally RIGHT NEXT TO THEM and when my mom came out I tried to play it cool and put headphones and pretending to be listening to music. and now she sittin right next to me as if she didn't get railed so im feeling sick now and wanted to know other people traumatizing stories :)
I've always wished I had a male friend who I can talk lewd stuffs with and also Hentai series XD I am a 24 yo girl yet I think this is fine XD either a male friend who I can talk about matured and H stuffs with or Fudanshis who knows no limit. Either way. I would like to know a man's POV of BL and H stuffs. RIP me...
hi, need help...
I'm not really sociable, since I was a kid I was shy and it became worse with puberty. So... I have a few friends in my class, 2 to be exact and until now I never really felt the need to speak with more people in my class because I feel awkward, I'm not good at talking in fact, but there's that girl in my class(not a crush sorry to disappoint you) and I feel like... I don't know she kind of gives me the "you're not sociable enough" message when she talks to me without really saying it even if she said that I was the girl with only 2 friends in the class while laughing, once. Sometimes I'm alone with people who I talk to but not like a friends more like an acquaintance and it's just awkward for me and for them as well. I know I can be more sociable if I make efforts. So should I ?
no hate please

So I just want to see who relates within the community of the queers.
So I used to be good at math. Now, not so much.
So yknow the "gay people can't have all 5 of the following" joke right?
Well I just wanna knoe if anyone else feels like the more they embrace the gay, the more they feel their math skills deteriorate?
Now there are only two options for me. It's either cause I'm queer or brain damage.

I’m sorry

So it has come to my attention after reading a few article that everything that has been going on this year has been messing with our mental health quite a bit.
So I figured I'm an only child and I've always wanted to have a younger sibling to support, comfort and love! But since I can't really have that I figured why not try to support, comfort and love total strangers who happen to enjoy the same things as I do!
Whatever is going on, I can try my best to comfort or even give advice! Obviously, I am not perfect and sometimes I won't know the right words but you can bet I'll listen (or read well? Lol) and I want to make sure that you know you are not alone!
Anyway, I love people in general and I just want y'all to feel better so vent if you like

Well, I came across yaoi while in either 5th or 6th grade (age 11). I was trying to see what male anatomy was like since all I ever did at the time was just draw females. So, I wanted to draw other things too. I was looking at some webtoon on webtoon/.com for ideas and I stumbled across a promotion for another webcomic that was gay. I was curious so I looked through it.
Also, at the time I didn't know being gay was considered to be "not accepted" and I also had a small idea of what 2 people fucking was like. (lmfao i had no idea how i knew but i just did) AND I didn't know people could actually be gay.
So, somehow I wasn't so fazed as other people might be. I don't know. It was strange experience for me. Yaoi didn't technically made me uncomfortable because I knew damn well some of this shit just don't happen in real life. But from there on, I kinda just got more curious. Well, here I am on this website. Hbu?

Just something with a good plot, please. Any genre is ok with me (psychological, horror, shounen, isekai, shoujo, gender-bender, etc).
Just not Harem/etchi please, those are the only genres I'm not too fond of.
