Also yes and no lmao. Are they touching each other? Then yes. Is there a human body distance between them? Then no. Are they in the same hole? Then yes. Is it just a train, waiting after? Then No.

Twink top, Buff Top, Twink Bottom, Buff Bottom all men.
Pretty top, Handsome top, Pretty bottom, handsome bottom all men.
At the end of the day, I don't understand the discourse we're all here for men.
Sad though there's many factors like looking for heteronormativity in yaoi, something most fans don't want to agree, something internalized we shou...... 1 reply
I'm a firm believer of the abuser and abused should never ever end up together, in fiction or in real life.
In straight manhwa, my girls end up with men that kill them, rape them, in my yaoi these bottoms end with the same kind, I read Yuri too but maybe I'm too picky but I've never read one where the fl ends up with a shitty woman.

Lmao, it's a given formula, like in actual book romance there's billionaire x poor girl, werewolf fated mates, the troupes are over saturated I agree, I won't lie I'm part of the reason why this troupe is still active I love me a good betrayed, found family etc troupe ( provided she doesn't go back to the loser ass family/lover).

When did I get here? When did we get here? I'm not a little girl anymore unfortunately. L- -- What brought on this realization is actually really funny, here I was reading a yaoi manhwa I saw hyped up, and the first scene was full of non consensual sex and it was jarring. I immediately hit the back button my day ruined. I thought to myself people enjoy this ? People think Rapists characters deserve redemption arcs? Insane.
Then I realized I have no right to judge lmao as an old tradjoshi jap anime back then had no concept of consent, with their weird ass size differences and bottoms like children, I can acknowledge is very weird now. Atleast even if there's rape these days, both love interests look like adults? A win is a win?
But the fact that I can't stomach such media anymore, be it in my novels, manhwas, mangas, anime or live action I don't want to see an assaulter as a live interest it's wrong. But this realization made me realize, 18 year old me who had painter of the night as her phone background would tell me to fuck off.
I started to think about other things that have changed, like how when I like a manhwa here I go to official sites to support the official work, how I cringe when I see teenagers under graphic yaoi smut comment sections.
It's not just this, irl I looked at status updates of all my age mates, and it's married, married, engaged, mother, mother, guys when did we get here?! I tried to talk to my best friend about it, and she tells me I have a niece who's education I'm sponsoring and I realize damn I really am an adult. When did this happen?
Genuinely? One moment I'm on bato reading yaoi another moment...I'm still reading yaoi actually but as a person pushing 30 with responsibilities.
I'm not ready, but here I am. Mentally though, it's still 2017, I just finished highschool, got my first phone and access to unlimited internet content.
: P.S: Yaoi is not a phase guys, you're never going to grow out of it.
