Literally mentioned in my OP acknowledging the weird proportions some bottoms can have and clarified that I am not exactly arguing against that and yet people are trying to argue something completely different from my OP...
My point was that some people think any form of femininity = "nOt bEinG a rEaL mAn". Even if the series at question is in fac...... reply
Who is gonna tell all these people that "twink" is a word that was originally reclaimed by gay men themselves and that it's not just meant to be a word to shit on feminine men? Some of these replies and the fact that they are getting upvotes is actually so fucked up.

I read BARA as well and they don't look like they are trying to be realistic, tbh.

Yes, there are some weirdly proportioned child-like bottoms in Yaoi, but that isn't what twinks are in the first place. Some people use 1-2 examples of those to shit on bodies that aren't hulking muscle mass.
I usually end up dropping stuff when it declines in quality and sometimes I drop it for petty reasons like when the artist changes and I don't like the art style anymore ┑(￣Д ￣)┍ Any series you used to like, but dropped for good or petty reasons.
I am gonna go first, chainsaw man. I mean, the plot is great but the characters seriously frustrated me. Literally only liked Power and everyone else came off as unlikeable to me.
