Y'ALL HEAR ME OUT, LOWKEY I THINK ITS MISOGYNY AND HETERONORMATIVITY CAUSING THIS. The author will think of the person in the "women's" role as obviously having to be the one who's dumber and has more shame than the one in the "man's" role. LIKE MAYBE IT IS THAT DEEP– In conclusion we need more switches.   2 reply

I have this same issue with shoujo rivalries too. Why does the ml always have to be smarter, richer, and stronger than the mc and ALWAYS without even trying? The mc will be working their ass off day and night and the ml just waltzes in and gets first place. It's infuriating!   1 reply

this fucks me up so bad.... dont get me started. I've dropped several stories because at first they make the mc seem so capable and independent but whoops no we cant have that because the ml cant exist without one upping the mc in some sort of way. it really inspires no interest in me when I have to see a character constantly be the submissive one......   2 reply

And in the top's pov he just toys with the mc too. Mc is having a one sided rivalry while ml dont even take him seriously or he's "two steps ahead" and honestly i dont think it's only bl   reply

RIGHT and they'll make them super dependent on the top character too as if they're helpless and have no one else to rely on eurgh. Can't avoid heteronormative bs in any genre istg.   reply
