Disagree respectfully (and don't say "Shut up")

The problem I have with people saying "If you don't like it don't read it, check the tags and shut up" etc. etc. is that there are some beautiful, amazing, genius manga that have rape in them. Get stuffed, why would I deprive myself of those amazing manga just so I won't dislike the lighthearted rape apologia in some, and hurt your feelings for some reason by saying I don't fancy it? A lot of the time what people (sometimes myself included) take issue with is HOW rape is handled in a story. Sometimes it makes an otherwise good manga worse. Some of it comes down to cultural differences, some of it comes down to personal kinks, but some of it also comes down to ignorance. I'm not actually trying to debate any of that right now - I just think that everyone should be mindful of the fact that we all love yaoi, even if we disagree on some aspects of certain manga. We are ALL free to express our opinions about it. But, we should ALL try to keep our comments reasoned, and respectful of others' right to differ.

    Reading my comment over I wish I could edit it, the "Get stuffed" bit sounded way more combative than it was meant. It wasn't aimed at anyone in particular, and certainly not the translator!

    Actually the people who are saying don't read it there are tags because some people crosses the line when they try to teach other what they should do or not talking someone if they should read it or not or shaming author for their work is a no no.they talk and talk about rape is romantacize in this manga they knew it from the first chapter if they dont like it why are they reading til chapter 4 you know there are people who like that kind of stuff .its fantasy people want to enjoy it but when we see hate comment and sometime get scolded for it it really feels bad .you just have to.know the thin line between reality and ffantsy when reading manga .there is a really big diffrence betwwen critcizing someone and then blaming people for what they read AnD some of people here talk and twist their word like they are blaming people who read them .do you think in real life if someone will get raped they will bejave like that no.they will be devastated .

    I agree with you - I seriously meant that EVERYONE should be reasoned and respectful of others when they voice their opinions, whichever side of a disagreement they are on!
