I, for one, would love to see a spicy “take the r@pist, assaulting, kidnapping, neglecting alpha to court” arc give him some time to really contemplate his actions in the serenity of general population prison as well as a “5150 the omega to a professional psych facility to evaluate his manipulative stalking and codependency” arc
No way is that really gojo, Greg is 100000% messing with us atp, that’s gonna be Ui Ui or possessed nobara with Gojo’s soul in it because the left eye is shown and that’s conveniently the one she got blown out. I’ll eat my pants if that’s Gojo in the flesh and not Sukuna hallucinating or sumn, no way Gojo’s biggest hater Greg would allow him to not be a corpse
This author achieved what no one thought was possible and wrote the god tier final boss of douche bag unapologetic r@pist seme’s. It takes a lot of grit and determination to write a seme as irredeemable and horrible as this but the author managed to do it. The cherry on top is his pity party throwing all of the blame for his own actions on literally anything except for himself, somehow managing to show no remorse or accountability for what he’s done and how it’s directly affected those around him. I’m so incredibly fed up with the alpha, the author just keeps adding to his list of crimes and growing sex offender crime list.
Every work I read from that author, I wonder if they just hate gay men bc the main couple is always a dysfunctional mess that gets cleaned up in the last 10 episodes before they move on to the healthier side couple for whatever reason I do love their art tho, it’s very aesthetic tbh their shading is on POINT
Over/under on the author having the alpha r@pe the beta again ? I feel like the author is gonna have him confront the beta and just r@pe him bc the alpha showed how even in his dreams the first thing he’d do is r@pe the beta and he’s giving off even worse creepy vibes, and having the alpha be like “woe is me, what did I do to deserve this” as if he isn’t sentient human refuse. I hate it here.
This feels like one of those stories where the author is a straight woman who has never interacted with a gay man or gay couple irl ever
Like queer authors NEVERRRR write such dysfunction and borderline non-con toxic relationships it always makes me so sad that korean authors specifically always think their ‘top’ has to be a walking talking prime example of ‘men who you’d 100% get a restraining order against and fear for your wellbeing irl’
Also, I’m so sorry but mpreg almost always gives me “straight woman who, bc she’s hetero, has this feeling that a baby is the ultimate ending to a romantic coupling so having men able to get pregnant makes the relationship more ‘solid’ and palatable to them” there was NO need to throw a baby into the chaos of this couple’s relationship like I’m so sorry but whhhhyyyyyy
''Queer authors would never'' is the dumbest fucking shit I've ever heard because QUEER authors absolutely do write toxic dysfunctional relationships we love that shit just as much as any 'straight woman'
Tell me you don't actually read a variety of queer media without telling me you don't variety of read queer media.. you can read your get you in to heaven type queer media without putting down queer media that is toxic and bad
This statement is so fucking misogynistic and while trying to raise queer people also drags a significant portion of them down it hurts..yeah this SPECIFIC story isn't the best fucking thing and you can argue with that but putting queer authors on this pedestal as UWU queer authors would only write the most wholesome stable and functioning relationships so any other gay or lesbian media written with toxicity is definitely the straights at it again is putting down all the fucking queer people who do love horrible toxic and morally black media
Also idk what queer spaces you interact with but the ones I do absolutely love mpreg as a trope...and reasons can vary between yay gays can have kids or fetish reason either way is a liked trope..Acting like straight women are the only consumers of this shit infantilises queer people that do partake in reading this kind of content...listen you can not like this type of shit and these kinds of tropes but acting like queer media is morally superior because it's only good and wholesome is leaving out a good portion of queer fans and writers alike that do like things that are not good
Like yeah this story sucks and the writing is bad but take issue with that and not a whole genre of media,types of tropes and a whole group of people we're not a monolith
It’s not misogynistic at all. You do know that misogyny is “the hatred and contempt of women” pointing out that straight women have a history or poorly portraying queer relationships is just a lukewarm take that’s been said a thousand times. Just like how white authors have a history of poorly portraying characters of color.
You’re making a semantic argument out of ‘queer quarries would never’ when it’s obvious they do but straight authors DISPROPORTIONATELY portray queer relationships in toxic ways because they don’t do any proper research into what it’s like to be a part of the LGBTQA+ community.
Straight authors, male and female, have tokenized POC and members of the queer community in their writing and it is VERY rare to see a Manhwa/manhua/manga portray a gay relationship without abuse, r@pe, non-con, etc. that the yaoi genre and BL as a whole have been bastardized into fetish content that caters to a straight female audience.
Like the brass tax here is that the majority of this content from East Asian countries like China, Korea, and Japan IS fetish content for straight women. Because straight men are not the ones buying it, and queer folks only make up a small percent of the population.
Heterosexual women can write a good queer story but the percent of toxic horrendous r@pe driven plots for gay romance overshadows that by far. Like I don’t consider yaoi and BL ‘queer’ media because the majority of it is fetish content written BY straight women FOR straight women. Complete with over masculine ‘top’ and over feminine self-insert ‘bottom’.
Also “acting like women can only read this kind of shit infantilizes queer people who do read” you don’t know what infantilize means. I’m not calling queer people children, but you also don’t know what misogyny means. Everything you accuse me of is just you using words incorrectly.
You make SO many assumptions on what I consider ‘good’ queer content, when I’ve said nothing to imply my opinions on anything aside from this story having a sofas plot written by an out of touch straight woman.
Most of the content I enjoy isn’t fluffy slice of life queer stories, I like complex flawed characters and imperfect relationships, but yaoi stories have character’s flaws as ‘r@pist’ ‘doesn’t respect consent’ and ‘abusive’ and not normal human flaws like ‘insecure’ ‘judgmental’ or ‘self destructive’. I don’t need a happy ending. I don’t need perfect Mary Jane’s. But I’m so SO sick of straight authors creating fetish content about a community that displays the worst of what any dysfunctional relationship has to offer and pretend like the overly possessive bf is hot for being controlling and abusive.
Morally black characters are meant to be criminals and irredeemable and they have a place in certain stories but the amount of morally black r@pists in yaoi and BL comics is disgusting because the story is meant to be about romance or relationships. Morally black characters are horrible ‘love interests’ because they’re not MEANT to get a redemption because there’s no way to redeem them plot-wise unless the person they’ve hurt just forgets their trauma and forgives them.
If you like reading psychological horror abuse stories about the queer community that honestly says WAY more about you than it does me.
The few shite stories about gay men written by gay men pale in comparison to the endless mountain of r@pe plot yaoi straight female authors have produced. I’ll take a shite story about gay people written by a gay person vs a shite story written by a straight person about gay people any day, at least the one written by a gay person feel as if it’s trying to write about something it’s uneducated on and perpetuating bad incredibly misinformed stereotypes like ‘gay men commit SA’ the way straight female yaoi authors do when they write 98% of all their works including some form of aggressive non-con and that’s if it isn’t straight up r@pe. The gay writers typically don’t write r@pe scenes as feeling good the way straight female authors do, if they include those scenes at all.
I really want to know what is going on in this author’s mind every week when they decide to reinforce how much the alpha is an unapologetic r@pist.
Like I imagine them sitting in the writers room, looking at the script and thinking “no, I haven’t made absolute sure to remind the readers that the alpha is a sex criminal who will readily repeat his crimes - which he feels absolutely no remorse for - enough yet, let me just add another non-con scene. Wait, something’s off . . . OH YEAH, he hasn’t r@ped the beta in a while, silly me let’s add an explicit r@pe scene in his dreams to show that the alpha is sentient dog water r@pist garbage in every dimension he exists.”
I do think it’s funny that a few readers managed to forget the alpha kidnapped, chained the beta to a bed, r@ped him for marathon week long sec against the beta’s will, and neglected to give him proper medical care, but the author decided “no, I need to remind the readers exactly who the male lead is” and gave him a r@pe fantasy dream. Refresh their memories lmfaoo
This is the end of this week’s vent for real this time, I promise, see yall next week during my cathartic rage-induced vents about this comic <3 peace and love (unless ur the author, bc you don’t deserve restful dreams this week for ur current crimes against the poor gay characters u created to suffer in this psychological horror piece you’ve written)
I know it’s a dream but holy hell am I heated, in an unsurprising turn of events the alpha reveals how quickly he would r@pe the beta AGAIN and disregard the beta’s wellbeing and consent in favor of his own pleasure.
I truly believe there exists a single prison, with a single cell, wherein there is a single UNCOMFORTABLE lumpy bed with a single THIN itchy blanket and the single FLATTEST pillow available, and to the side of the bed is a single STANDING toilet (hole in the ground) with a single role of single ply toilet paper, and one single skylight window for this author. For crimes against decent plot and character development and for subjecting the readers to the slow painful moral decline and murder of every single character’s personality.
Like girl it is NOT hard to not write your main man as a literal unapologetic r@pist I seriously cannot believe your editor allowed you to write the alpha as a ‘sympathetic’ character, there’s NOTHING sympathic about him bc you took away any empathy readers had to offer by making him - sorry for repeating myself - AN UNAPOLOGETIC SEX CRIMINAL. The story is giving psychological horror bc the reality is, the beta is being manipulated by sentient human refuse and a stalker.
Anyways I’ll see y'all next upload to vent, this is my weekly hate-read, peace and love
Yall cannot convince me this isn’t Korean AU twilight like the way I am HOLLERING at my screen rn I honestly wish there was a warring werewolf or demon clan instead of the humans lmfao like go full throttle with it, and add in a “where have you been loca ?” for good measure
On an unrelated note, I hate Korean Edward the way Kendrick hates Drake, idc IDC, if u wanna argue with me argue w the WALL
