sampling bias. almost all series recommended on social media platforms tend to be red flag. theres a trend even on booktok of liking red flag men, which extends to yaoi readers. even if there are good series reccomended on social media, the talk about the red flag (both positively and negatively) are more frequent and louder than the green flag series

i dont know how people arent getting it. this is emotional abuse and the uke is the victim. he literally had all his choices taken away from him, he is isolated from everyone but the seme, the only thing he CAN control is his body and reactions. the seme found himself obsessed with the uke but the uke did nothing wrong, he just showed brotherly affection. the seme's interest grew unchecked by the parents because of poor parenting. i see other topics saying how it's the uke's fault but i fail to see how the uke has ANY choice in this situation at all
