People standard are high in real life relationship yet touch bottom in fiction
THATS WHY it's the good type of communication bcs there is barely any done in most of the bl manhwas
Because fiction is fiction doesn’t reflect people’s morals in real life
I do want to point out that irl people’s communication is also shit so….
Honestly, I’ve seen people reveal far more about their morals through the fiction they read and defend. So saying that their fictional preferences don’t reflect their real-life morals at all is quite an understatement.
Well, we could say this about horror movies with killing scenes in it or violent games in the same way as BL. No sane person thinks killing is okay because they saw it in a movie unless they had prior mental issues.
I'm tired of people using violent movies and video games as a blanket comparison. There have been documented cases where repeated exposure to violent media has been associated with changes in behaviour, so claiming that media consumption can never have an influence is just as unreasonable as claiming it always does. Similarly, some research has found associations between certain forms of pornography consumption and sexually aggressive attitudes or behaviour, although that doesn't establish that pornography causes rape or that every consumer is dangerous. My point isn't that fiction automatically determines someone's morals, but that we shouldn't dismiss the potential influence of what people repeatedly consume, romanticize, and defend simply because it's fictional. Depiction, consumption, and endorsement are different things, and all deserve nuanced discussion.
The people acting like this is crazy good communication as if this isn’t a normal amount of communication
