I mean this in the nicest way possible, but please explain how a teacher x student can be non toxic?
??? Non toxic and student teacher in the same sentence?? Buddy this is a skewed power dynamic and it is VERY unhealthy in status. But I mean I guess if you want to read smth like that read "The Scum Villains Self Saving System." It's not on Mangago, ur gonna have to read the novel from either online or on the physical version. It's surprisingly very good, but again, the dynamic is still very weird there are 4 volumes and the story ends in the 3rd one, with the 4th one being just extras. Ok then, happy reading I guess, but I do not recommend wanting to read about tropes like this. This type of media is very problematic and weird
I don’t see how it’s possible either by the very nature of the dynamic

Yes exactly, teachers are supposed to be your older role model who takes care of you at a young age, there is definitely a power imbalance. Also romanticizing it is just insulting victims who have been taken advantage of in this relationship. It's not something to be normalized and we shouldn't reduce it to a story tag because this is a real thing You are so right
ahaha i meant it in like a non-bdsm or traumatic experience kind of way if u get what i mean? I get the power dynamics and problematic nature of the trope but i was hoping if there were like more of the kinds where they just want eachother like some of the ones i've read before?? sorry if it was confusing lol
Nah, not confusing, I was just genuinely interested to know! Thanks for answering
Ohhh ok I understand now. Even if it's not my cup of tea, I won't hate on it for you. Sorry if I sounded rude earlier, sometimes I'm really bad at sounding nice Like I said earlier, you should read The Scum Villains Self Saving System, because the ML is such a crybaby yearner
