Why can't there be more seme protagonist BLs? :(
I'm not looking for recs just want to be an inconvenience by complaining about something small but is a big deal to me, for some reason... :/ also not saying uke protagonist is bad. Does anybody else share my grievances? :((
Yep wish we could have more. I wanted to see more of their thoughts and not just how they use their dicks.
Sometimes they do even have very little PoV in a series. And when I say POV it’s actually a pov and not some sobstory. reply
The submissive one is always the mc in stories, in hetero ones where its romance based mc is always a girl, in gl ones mc is always the bottom, same goes for bl, it generally existed in wlm stories first then wlw & mlm authors followed the same pattern.
To answer ur question, I think it's to make the character relatable to the readers, because no ...... reply
I really enjoy seme protagonists. This only works well when the uke is a strong character, both literally and figuratively. Readers wouldn't want a bottom to be sidelined. I specially love those when they are a power couple. I hope to discover more and for the novels I read with this trope to be adapted soon. reply
I'm always down for new and different approaches in a genre filled with cliches and formulaic stories, so I support your grievance in principle. thinking it over, I think most of the stories I've read and liked gave input from both characters even if it's primarily from the pov of one character. that said, this is a real rabbit hole of a question........ reply
I was thinking about this a few weeks ago. Is it because of the romance genre generally (like the girl is usually the mc in hetero romance stories) or is it something else? reply
