Well I'm not that old old, (but even if I become a grandma if i didn't kms I would still be a fujo) I'm a gen z. But I noticed that right now, the more I mature I lean more in reading novel compared to manhwa/manga. Lately, I've been kind of ... gain a new hobby of reading BL on webnovel app (in English). Some of it is badly written it's kinda addi...... 1 reply

it's overrated, I think most people eat their "safe food" like kimchi, their noodles, their deserts, etc. HOWEVER, try their pork cuisine, they're good at making pork and it's kinda rare for foreigners or tourists trying this idk why their pork belly is so good reply

Honestly most rap song, bc the lyrics are unhinged, drugs, crimes, women, sex, and misogynistic in general. The beat is catchy asf so credit to that.
Also honorable mention I want your bite from Chris Crocker, typing this makes me cringe. reply
I always dislike it when people think "this top is worse than this top" just because the top has pushover mc, the mc who let things slide, so his wrongdoings aren't really obvious. And then they compare this top to other top, who has mc who literally dislike what he did and complaining about it and then the top went thru heart wenching chasing arc, begging and crying okay. So people think this top is worse than the top who got easily "forgiven" by the mc.
But I personally have different opinion, I'd rather read black/red flag tops going thru regret arc after doing so many questionable thing (obviously, they're gonna be end game anyway, so at least) i wanna see author telling us this is wrong, this top needs emotional torture (or even physical lol) — and then after that, his relationship get better with the mc.
Rather than reading top who's constantly doing unhinged things, make the mc cry, and traumatized but mc just "Whatever, he's not that bad, I like him anyway" he got angry inwardly, but he can't get mad because "well my top is crazy" and the readers will this top is better than the top who went thru hell??? Just because the bottom is a pushover stupid schizophrenic????
For me it's better to went thru the consequences, than not going thru it at all.
What about you if you wanna add or share your thoughts? Dont answer with bullshit like "I'd rather not read both" because this isn't a question for people who dislike reading toxic BL
for me Taeui from passion, idk why he is not even a dumb mc, he's that typical sunshine puppy bottom, so ig i have unreasonable ick. his whole character is just kind of ... cringe me, PERSONALLY so if ppl disagree then ofc i dont mind it at all, i'm not sensitive just bc we have discussion or different interpretation/opinion, people mostly love him though and i can see why
my a bit reasonable ick for him is he is unreliable narrator in novel, atp i'm ignoring that trait of him when i read the novel like i cant really trust the mc. people who read the novel must have notice that manhwa version tried to give sparkle and glitter for ilay when he's worse in novel, but again you somehow cant blame the manhwa for depicting ilay that way bc Tae is unreliable narrator! no wonder there is a running joke that Tae has schizophrenia in kr fandom of passion lmao
icks are still tolerable for me, so do i continue to read? yes. is it giving me ick? yes
I still have more from BL characters but idk why I suddenly got too lazy to continue
