People love to throw the words “romanticizing,” “bird,” “Stockholm syndrome” (which, btw, is a media term), and all that around, and it just comes off as bitterness.

“I want toxic yaoi where there isn’t rape!”
*Gets one with actual nuance in the toxic dynamics but is a love triangle.*
“*Gasp* Romanticizing abuse!”

*Second ML sexually assaults MC.*
“But-but the author said he isn’t a rapist, though!”
“TJ is a rapist!”And the dude has never raped or sexually assaulted Ian.

There is a difference between having a flawed, nuanced relationship that is toxic and endorsing an abusive relationship. If you read Wetsand and think it’s endorsing that, maybe try improving your reading comprehension.
