Sorry not sorry Yahwi fans

I keep seeing so many comments trying to justify support of Yahwi because even though he’s a toxic rapist, he’s fictional. And obvi that means people can ship it and not feel like it’s f*cked up. Here’s my issue with that. There’s this constant defense and romanticization of toxic and abusive relationships in yaoi comics and it feels like in recent years it’s become the norm. Obviously everyone is entitled to their own opinion and we all know this is a fictional story with a very thin plot and mostly about the sex. But why are some of you attracted to the character that’s abusing the MC? Why do you find that hot? That’s the problem. Because no matter what you say you’re internalizing this behavior. And based on the comments I feel like a lot of you are younger. Like under 23. Cain is literally the human reincarnation of a loyal “man’s best friend” but people find him sus. Yahwi tried to pay Jooin for sex, raped him when he was unconscious, coerced him into BDSM, abandoned him when he was outed to his entire Uni and repeatedly ignores what he wants and dismisses Jooin’s anger. But he’s given the benefit of the doubt. Because he’s rich/hot and doesn’t know how to “properly express himself” right? Because he’s getting better and changing right? Which means you’re attracted to rich/powerful men who treat you like trash because maybe one day they can learn. That’s a problem. Periodt.

    Exactly! It's tiring seeing all these stories with horrible love interests that do horrible things but they're attractive so people just ignore it and wait for "character development" and I know that they're fictional but it's still sad to see people look over rape or abuse and some even blame the mc
    :(

    i'm teamcain but people can be attracted to yahwi just because his looks are their type and that's okay cause it's fiction. i find it problematic that yall are so eager to call people rape apologists, liking a character doesn't mean you have to support their actions especially in this poorly written wattpad fanfic of a story that people only read for the good art and smut. i agree that trying to justify his actions is bs but yall should stop insulting people just for saying they're team yahwi. i'm attracted to johan liebert, does that mean i support mass murder? hell no. it's mainly because of his looks, VA and the mysterious aura. you can't tell me you've never been attracted to a villain even once in your life

    I completely agree with your comment! Also, I saw someone commenting “team rapist” like what the hell is wrong with people’s morals?????? Even if it’s fiction rape is something terrible and it doesn’t change that fact. But that person is proudly announcing “team rapist”, I don’t even know what to say about this, this is so fucked up and toxic.
