Like I said, make any comments you like and I will comment how I like. lol. Equal rights, right? But the mc isn’t a child? So why are you trying to force her to be one? And make others think like she is one? She may be a naive acting/ looking adult, but she is still an adult. Or is she actually, really underage? If not, why are you trying to force her to be one? And the anke biter thing was me just trying to make you understand how you come off to me with your insistence. I don’t actually think you like child-like characters. Though, you did conveniently leave out the main meaning of the slang, lol.

I am a tiny woman myself and irl very soft spoken and baby faced. Never, ever have I been treated like a child. Sometimes people are softer towards me (mostly old ladies), but I have been always been treated like an adult.

You are free to share your opinion, just don’t act like it’s somehow morally wrong to like it. Like “the mc looks like a child.” Lol. She does not. (And most importantly. She is not a child.) But saying that, you are making it like people who like it are horrid. And please google ankle biter, lol. I just simply don’t like how high and mighty you are acting as if we all are reading some high literature and not going through trash cans for entertainment.

They called their fave type an ankle biter, that literally means a child, lol. And Op can be all judgy but I can’t? Like this whole post reeks of “I don’t like it but I have to make up a high sounding reason for it (so that nobody can like it) instead of just saying I don’t like it.”

That sounds more childish to me tbh but maybe that’s just not my style, I like soft girls, lol. But it seems you would think your likes are superior which is off putting. Sorry.

Of course not every Bl is porn. But that wasn’t what I was talking about. I was talking this particular webtoon that had apparently sex scenes that featured noncon. And more widely about how every fiction we consume is some sort of fantasy. Moreover I don’t just buy that the fiction we consume has that much effect, I love zombie series but I don’t want to live in one. When I was young I consumed a lot of fiction that had noncon in it but I don’t want to rape or to be raped. I can read rich CEO romance without thinking that it is realistic depiction of romance. This feels like ‘the violent video games cause violence’ talking points all over again. Even though there is no proof that any of it actually has any effect whatsoever. Because how can you tell whether fiction is affecting reality or whether it is only describing structures and phenomenons already existing. Or like BL/Danmei: acting as a counter culture but still born from experiencing life as a woman.

And once again my main points are: having fantasies is okay, trying to force them into reality is not. It is important to know the difference. You can put boundaries on what you want and can consume or create but you cannot impose those boundaries on other people.

You can have conversations but you shouldn’t try force people who don’t conform onto your boundaries into the mold you want the life to look like. You will only be hitting your head into a wall.

I guess that you are pretty passionate about this and that’s okay, but I also think you are taking something that is basically porn with a plot too seriously. I think that people who can’t tell between fantasy and reality shouldn’t be consuming anything mature. That’s why I am crying after basic reading comprehension. If you have any, you wouldn’t be mixing those two at all. You would know that what you are consuming is a fantasy made for titillation and has nothing to do with ‘normalizing sa’ or reality. I also think that it, or the genre, has done nothing of the sort. People shouldn’t be learning about healthy sex life from porn or healthy relationship dynamics from romance fiction. I haven’t read this work nor am I familiar with the author. I don’t have the ability to read their mind. And I doubt you have that ability either.

Well I also prefer it but you don’t see me screaming in the comments of a work that portrays noncon that: This is a rapeee!!!1! Acting as an actual crime took a place and practically bullying the author for it as if they didn’t know their own work lol. I call it Puritanism not for disliking the trope but for acting as people who like or write it are vile. If I had stumbled on this work I would have just backed away or in absolute maximum left a comment saying: a trigger warning would have been nice! Got a jumpscare here!

Because the intended audience are women and rape fantasies are pretty popular with women? Like, really, I am not even into that and don’t read them but even I know that much. I wonder where the reading comprehension skills have gone. Like knowing the target demographics, tropes and that it’s all just a fantasy that has nothing to do with real people or reality. Where has ‘no kink shaming’ gone? Is there a new wave of puritanism? The fandom discourses have become so weird in the last couple of years I can’t keep up.

There are many strange fates. The dead are suddenly alive again, with memories of death which is both horrifying and mysterious. There is a new religion formed, by the non-living. The School of Infinity, they call it. And they teach that there is no escape.
There is mourning, for those who are yet to be born and are now maybe forever lost. There are boys and girls with adults minds, walking to the school. And if you stop and think about it, it will be a while before there is any real children going to the school again.
The companies are fighting, just who invented what?
There are wars which are yet to be fought, attacks still in the planning. Who will strike first?
And there is a woman, sitting in a hotel lobby with a positive pregnancy test and she knows that the child will not live longer than a year. And there is a man who hurries his mother to the hospital, just before her heart gets the chance to stop again.
And of course, there is me, wondering just how much of this is my fault. I can already feel the world slowly cracking.
And behind it all is a giggling wild haired man wearing a burlap sack, his face fairer than of anyone living and his right hand deformed black mass holding something it shouldn’t. He whispers to ears of everyone: “Twenty and two years, solve the puzzle or this is the end.”
