Seme Protagonist or Uke Protagonist?
Do you guys prefer seme protagonist or uke protagonist in your BLs with top/bottom dynamics?
For me I prefer seme protagonist. Whether the bottom is dominant or the seme is dominant, or the bottom is submissive or the seme is submissive, the bottom is proactive/passive or the seme is proactive/passive, I would overall prefer to be in the seme POV.
Maybe I'm influenced by most BLs being uke protagonist so I want something different, but I also find I like to be in the perspective of loving the bottom, or noticing the bottom or reacting to the bottom. I also think being in the seme pov allows the uke to be more interesting in a way I'd care about and be treated by the story in a way I'd find interesting. And I don't like POVing the bottom as they react to or are chased/lusted/loved or yearned after by what are the audience's ideal man (top) in their ideal romance storyline.
What POV do you guys prefer in BLs with top/bottom dynamics? need opinions in reference to BLs with top/bottom dynamics. yes ( ° ʖ °)
In my humble opinion, I am both like either uke or seme protagonist as long as the background story and the characterization of the MC is justified and beautifully written.
My taste gravitate more of the Ukes or the MCs of their respective stories. The heavy plot ones that I have read, had good foundation of their characterization of MC.
I just ...... reply
Me too, I also prefer seme protagonist ദ്ദി ˉ͈̀꒳ˉ͈́ )✧
As someone who hate touchy second mls and love triangles, lowkey having the uke as the protag Im worried abt their asscheeks every chapter cz of how common SA is in BLs and yaoi in general...
Help idk if this makes sense or not its currently 3am Im tweaking... reply
i agree! i find it more wholesome to read the perspective of the "chaser" or someone who is wholeheartedly loving someone and wanting to protect them. being lgbt+ in real life also affects my reading preferences, haha. though majority of my queer friends irl are verse and/or switch, and most real healthy relationships aren't so one-sided :) reply
Tbh, for me it's not either/or for me. And the whole having more of one guy's pov is more of a korean manhwa thing from what I've seen, I haven't seen this phenomenon much in chinese danmei or western mlm novels. (or maybe i just haven't read enough yet idk dawg). Japanese manga are always 50/50 they're either really good or really bad. It depends....... reply
hehe i also like it more when it's from the seme's pov. my reasons are the same as you too. i love gooning to my ukes :33 i feel like there would be less sa in bl if the story was from the top's pov idk if that makes sense. and there's just way too many bls with bottoms pov, it's like how they were made for straight women to self insert themselves ...... reply
