I mean, rape is cool with me (you know what I mean) when it's not romanticized? So I'm not gonna avoid something just 'cause it has a rape tag. I'm just a part of the minority who reads shit for the plot lol, and rape that's just brushed off is a bad plot device, but to each their own ig.
Same, rape that's not a plot device is good, like being a backstory of a character. Of course not the seme who rapes, but some other jackass like the teacher who traumatizes the uke in Boy Meets Maria or smth. It adds to the angst and plot, and it makes the character feel real. Of course there has to be trauma and the rapist has to be jail, idk why they don't write that in most yaoi (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
Idk y'all I feel like there are labels like dubcon and noncon, because they're fictional characters, it's a fictional story. Technically it's not rape if they don't tell us it is in the story.
The reason for tags and genre labels, and for my advice in the comment to read the descriptions and try to avoid certain words, is because I get that these fictional versions of dubcon/noncon scenes aren't for everyone, and for many possible reasons. But being able to separate fiction from reality is really important.
Like it's okay to not like stuff, but if you know you don't like it, avoid it. But if you find yourself drawn to it, and feel uncomfortable, you don't need to shame yourself because liking something in a fictional story is not the same as wanting it for yourself or for another person.
Yeah it would be nice to have trigger warnings or appropriate and specific genres, but like who are you gonna talk to about it? If you paid for the story, maybe you could reach out to the author or host site to request they add those, but lmao you didn't so chill. Perhaps look for context clues that the story might have non-con or dubcon, like if the description has "sadist," or "trap," I'd say that's definitely sus if you're avoiding noncon or dubcon or fictional rape.
I happen to have a crazy people fetish so I like this kinda fiction
