UNPOPULAR OPINION! GIVE YOURS.

Characters with light skin ( idk if I can say that ) are really good, but I really wanna see more dark skinned seme / uke. I mean I don't mind reading a bl where the seme is light skinned and the uke is dark skinned and vice versa, but why not having both characters dark skinned?
+ I think that characters with black eyes and hair are good looking too, and they kinda give that mysterious air about them, so why not having seme AND uke both with those criterioa?
+ we're in 2019, why not trying to have a badass , manly , independent uke? ( like the one in midnight rain ) , and A seme can be vulnerable sometimes. That makes the story more realistic.

I mean It's just my opinion. what's do you think about it? And what you wanna " change " about yaoi ?

I think that many common BL tropes are super toxic and we should stop saying "that's just how it is" or "read something else" instead of thinking critically about it and expecting more. Why shouldn't we have stories which are LGBT+ positive, celebrate instead of deify or fetishize, and actually be interesting to read? They exist, so people should p...... 1 reply

i wish the seme/uke terminology would just die from BL vernacular. it's not that i have a problem with strict roles (but i really really prefer switching and role reversal is more interesting and realistic imo) i just feel like it's soooo embarrassing that people use seme/uke with full unapologetic irony. maybe it's because I'm an adult but it's l...... 2 reply

Rape. Can rape stop being a thing in yaoi from now on? Sexism/misogyny, can that stoo being a thing in yaoi and the people who reads it? I can tell you nasty, dusty little hoes hate women and find femininity repealing! Just want to tell you, saying an "uke" is weak because they exhibit feminine quality is NOT, NOT you being progressive and a femin...... 1 reply

SO many things can be changed, too much in fact for me to think of all on the spot so here's a few: -Normalizing rape tropes by romanticizing them or glossing that shit over. You can add that shit in horror, psychological etc. type plots but it's not romantic and shouldn't be treated as such. -Super feminine/shouta characters. We are here for the B...... 3 reply

I hate most yaoi tropes! Especially the rape one! I mean, who in god's honest name actually falls in love with their rapist? Like...no one. lmfao Given that, I don't mind a tsundere uke now and then or a badass seme. 1 reply

Weak and dumb characters makes me lose interest. Why can't we have dynamic characters that actually change theirselves for theirselves and not because Person A doesn't like them. I want to see them change to a better version of themselves rather than relying on Person A or anyone tho it's okay to show your vulnerable side to someone. Characters who...... reply

I don't care for the seme/uke thing in my BL. I'm not against it or anything I just don't see why you would specifically prefer it that way. To be fair though it would be annoying if both characters were uke's because the plot would never get anywhere and two seme's sounds more like a porno. I don't like yaoi. For those who don't know yaoi is not ...... 3 reply

I’m not really a fan of pretty, feminine men. They’re men physically so they’re gonna look like men. Sure there are men who are slender, but I’ve never seen one with a girly shaped face or a tiny waist with a bubble butt. I also hate it when the author gives the uke a tiny dick. most men don’t have a micro penis. And people don’t always...... reply

i hate it when there are fixed sex roles. its not realistic a realistic couple would take turns, and in fact its hotter than fixed roles. i also really dislike it when the bottom is feminine, girly and does nothing during sex but lie there. and when the top is masculine and emotionally constipated. its too heteronormative. 3 reply
