In most stories, movies, books, and manhwas it’s seen as “hot” to have an attractive, toxic, and probably abusive male lead. It sells no matter what generation. Most BL is written by women for women ex. How the uke and seme are drawn big and buff seme who can “protect” the uke and small big-eyed uke who needs a dick to think. People are d......   reply

Definitely, though tbf there's straight stuff that does this too. A big problem I have with the romance genre as a whole is how it often pushes this idea that, with enough hard work, abusive actions can be forgiven and worked through like they're normal relationship bumps. It's meant to be an ultimate act of love and commitment if their "love" can ......   reply

huh? people don't read smut with a straight face at home? what kind of face are you all making when you're at home? the only times I would be smiling and giggling are when the couple is being sweet or (said something funny)(, and it doesn't even involve any sex (okay, maybe it involves, but only a sweet aftercare scene.).

Something I'm thinking about more and more these days is how common it is with BL mangas/manhwa/webtoons etc. that it glorifies toxic relationships. Now I am not referring to rape alone (even if it is included in the list), but everyday red flags, e.g. controlling, being a jerk/asshole and manipulative, but the story presents it as positive qualities.
I'll admit I've read and liked stories with these points e.g. 'BJ Alex' so I'm not innocent, but in my defense the reasons are either I think Seme has "made amends" for his past or smut ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭

It is different if the story contains a toxic relationship that makes it clear that the relationship is harmful e.g. No Holes Barred (Not BL)

If it's just a one off scene as part of a story you've been reading, then that's fine idc much about people reading that in public, but if it's a smut story then that's gross. Like you're no different from some weirdo gooner guy watching a porn video in public   reply
