That really doesn’t sound likely at all. Personally I think the sa is just a way to shoehorn in a sex scene even when the bottom hasn’t fallen in love with the top yet. It’s just a common yaoi trope. I don’t think they think of it as being serious tho (because it’s fiction) considering how common it is to find. Curious, Do you have a spec......   1 reply

Sometimes I think the authors are trolling their audience to see how awful of a human they can make the ML and ppl will still simp for them as long as their awfulness is outweighed by their looks   reply

I think it definitely plays a role into the shitty Bl tops trend. I can enjoy a character being violent / shitty as part of his behaviour and UNUSUAL conditioning and/or something the plot is aimed to correct throughout the story, but when it's just a regular schmegular top who we know is going to end up with the MC and supposedly "charmed" him and......   reply

Back when yaoi first started, it was full of non-con and r*pe, I guess just like any other adult fiction product (ex: hentai) people tend to have fantasy and get excited abt those prohibiting things. These day, I have to said BL have come far enough that you can definitely find stuff that wholesome and consent, it just a little rare but they are de......   reply

(Yap-fest incoming…I actually wrote an entire essay holy shit. Also would just like to preface with I don’t agree that all these things are morally right or wrong, I’m just stating things based on my observations. There IS a TLDR at the end that grossly sums up the entirety of my TED talk.) You bring up a REALLY interesting topic. I’ve rea......   1 reply

I am usually so passionate about this topic but I'm so tired of it and dont want to turn on my brain again to think lol. So I'll just say I fully agree with you but that the reasons for shitty tops whatever are a bit more complex than east Asia and the treatment of women there. It really is a complex topic that goes further into society as a whole......   reply

I can't really comprehend why SA is like necessary for the plot. But I do think Japan has a lot of influence in it and the fault of Lezhin and the influence of Killing Stalking. A lot of what they publicized seems to brush of the poor understanding of what romance is and the difference between a crime and love. It just became a contest of who's gon......   reply

Idk. Maybe they have a rape fetish/kink, cnc, or they like the taboo or power dynamics. Could also be their way of coping with trauma? Maybe lots of BL/yaoi readers, or smut/romance readers, actually like those tropes so they continue to pump them out for money. Or it could be what you’re saying, and some other comments here. Maybe all of it comb......   reply

I have that fantasy where all straight men could be sexually attracted to each other and just go fuck themselves. X-) PS : i am a straight woman with low libido and i am really tired of straight men. And when i read BL i don't necessarily see gay men mistreating each others, but rather straight men reincarnated into gay men or something like th......   reply
