Marring man omggg who said that
Couldn’t agree more. I asked for a sad manhwa with self harm representation, and while it technically had that, it was shallow and leaned on tired stereotypes about SH victims instead of any real depth. Then I asked for psychological recs and got handed straight up rape fetish content instead. Psychological & angst ≠ rape
Hate when people recommend a "sad" story that I'm thinking will have the loss of and grieving for loved ones, self harm, mental health issues related, etc, idk, something more complex and layered with nuance, but it's just a rape slop story where the character gets tortured from beginning to end. Like boohoo it's so sad he's getting gangraped left and right, I'm not sad, I'm pissed the author thought this was content worth drawing in detail for every panel every chapter.
Rape slop stories don't count as "sad" stories because it's clearly fetish content. We've lost the damn plot.
