Yaoi PET PEEVES
I'm 100% using this question to vent because there are
to many things I'm tired of in this tropey genre but I would aboslutely love to hear other vents aswell.
1. When the uke is raped, saved by the seme, and the rapist is (RIGHTFULLY) commended and scorned for his actions but then in the SAME manga the seme will repeatedly rape the uke and faces absolutely NOTHING and it's just completely forgotten about.
and it's just like,
"Don't worry darling :), I won't let any bastard scumbag treat you the way same way I treat you"
2. When the uke APOLOGIZES after being raped by the seme like it's completely his fault and this is played 100% straight and not problematic in the least
3. Unrelated but when the seme goes "Hmm... things have just gotten interesting >:)"
because I can't imagine a person in real life saying this line out loud and it not being cringe. Bonus points if it's to some completely mundane, normal reaction like being flustered when your personal space is invaded.
> when uke is super femenine
> when all female characters are portrayed as villainesses
> when seme plays with uke until uke leaves, and then is suddenly so in love with uke he can’t stand to be apart from him
> the number of nasty rapists that are all over the place
> when uke doesn’t value himself and facilitates the seme’s shitty behavio......
