I skimmed through some of the comments and I love that there are other people out there that agree, just wanted to add my thoughts.
1. The number one thing I hate in yaoi, well manga in general is adults having sexual relationships with minors. Whether it’s yaoi or hentai, it’s disgusting and I’m thankful that most people tag yaoi with shot...... reply
I absolutely HATE the abusing relationships, the normalizing of sexual harassment and even rape! I always imagine that some psychos would read those manga and think Oh! It's okay to rape other guys as they seem to enjoy it and only FAKE resist it. reply

This is more of an overall pet peeve. I hate the way author's in BL sideline female characters. The girls that get abandoned, made out in front of for ~the drama~ of it all, etc. More female friends & sisters for BL leads please! reply
Rape and toxic relationships in yaoi is the norm unfortunately. That's why I prefer shounen ai stories, since they're the ones who seem to be trying to tell a story instead of just being porn.
Because at the end of the day, that's the difference. Shounen Ai are love stories whereas yaoi has a 30% chance of being a well written porn and 70% chance ...... 2 reply
I hate incest in yaoi, in every forms : father/son or brother(s)/brother(s), even if they are not blood related, maybe even more when they aren't blood related, that's such hypocritical. As if when you're not blood related, it could be acceptable to fuck someone from your own family.
But I don't mind «yaoi rape» cause it's so unrealistic. reply
I know most yaoi is written by women, but as a gay guy I really hate it when it's obvious that the woman writer has absolutely no idea how gay relationships/sex works (╬ ̄皿 ̄) 5 reply
