Since manga with rape is said to be fictional or doujin, for the most part I've ever seen, very deeply in my gut, I do become irked by the fact any character is being forced into a situation they do not understand or agree to.
But honestly, that deep down irk feeling is from my own personal view and experience with rape, had I never come face to t...... reply
I've read a lot of types not all of them glorify rape at all, in fact some even show the long effects they had on the character. A cruel God reigns by Hagio Moto and http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/kokoro_o_korosu_houhou/
Don't glorify it (among many) but anyway, the second is more to your example. And my belief on why it has many mixed up opinion...... reply
I see a lot of people on this thread saying things like, "why are you even asking this question?" but I get why OP is asking this because, I have seen it many times on this site too. A lot of times when a yaoi manga has a rape scene, the response to those scenes tend to be positive saying it was "hot" or "sexy". Yet on the other hand when yaoi mang...... 2 reply
Fuck, I accidentally left my reply on someone else's answer. I'll just repost what I said here:
I don't even think there's a real debate to this question. Absolutely rape is worse. ABSOLUTELY. Rape leaves you with mental scars and it's fucking hard to get over. It's painful and it sucks. Sure, cheating is also painful and it sucks and it can form ...... reply
They're both bad. Of course, rape is worse due to it being an actual, crime. It's just that since it's manga we're talking about people don't really think it's a big deal, however when cheating happens it just evokes a annoyed feeling, frustration, which results in complaints. reply
I sort of love that you asked this question, because I notice/think about/laugh at this behavior on here all the time. Thankfully, as can be seen in these responses, the majority of everyone here understands that there is no contest, and that rape is beyond reprehensible in reality. We understand that the wildly popular rape themes in erotic manga ...... 2 reply
Well I can't say anything for anyone else, but at least for me; I have strong sense of reality. Rape in manga is not real and would hardly ever happen like that in real world. It's merely illustration by the author for the storyline. Same for cheating. Couldn't care less, it's just ink on paper and image in your head. Scary ones are those who can't...... 1 reply
Both are inexcusable, but I think the thing that bothers me personally the most is... hmm. Actually they both do. There is no way I can choose because no matter what, they both cause emotional distress/trauma.
This sounds strange, but if I had to choose between the two I'd choose getting cheated on.
I've lost my trust in people long ago after all...... reply
i feel like both of them are fucking gross but i also personally feel like in some instances rape is eroticised in manga, and i mean, if someone likes rape fantasies and rape play, they would probably enjoy that. i have seen manga with very realistic depictions of rape, as well, but of course, they're quite rare. i wouldn't defend irl rape, but i f...... reply
