Même en tant que lectrice relativement jeune je trouve ça hyper bizarre de mettre ces demandes que dans certains BL juste pour leur apparence...
En plus quand elles commencent à dire que les GL ne sont pas bien car elles aiment les garçons et veulent pas voir des filles ensemble mais quand un garçon leur dit exactement la même chose sur les BL elles commencent à s'enerver c'est n'importe quoi (j'en ai déjà croisé comme ça)

GIRL PERIOD. I have been saying this since forever. Im not against switch couples but the fact that people only ask for switch under mangas with a manly uke or a pretty seme pisses me off. Mf out here saying im talking out of my ass try going to the comment section of "High Clear" or "The Dawn That Cuts Through The Night" or "Ang Ang" or "Ghost Window" or "The Pizza Delivery Man and The Gold Palace" i can literally keep going on forever. I have never seen anyone ask for a switch on manga like "Pearl Boy" or "Jinx" and why? Bceause it looks weird for the top to be smaller then the bottom? Be for fucking for real.

I will tell you the reason, it’s because they (mostly women) perceive these bottoms as women thus the reason they prefer them to embody the « uwu :3 >.< vulnerable type » rather than a manly, bulky or just a bottom who does not have any feminine traits. I personally do not like stories with vers couple as irl I am a twink who’s mostly attract to manly bottom hence the reason I mostly read stories with not stereotypical bottoms, but I am not going to go under BLs like Jinx and beg the author to make Jaekyung a bottom and Dan the top or them becoming a vers couple it’s her preference and I respect that yk

It's all about personal taste in storytelling and character dynamics. Different preferences exist within the readership.I like big and strong uke with short or pretty seme.
It’s also important to respect the creator's vision and the dynamics they've established for their characters.
Like it’s so frustrating that they never doing this under BLs with stereotypical uke, yet they will call u homophobic or misogynistic for not wanting them to become a versatile couple when they only want/read bottoms with feminine traits. Clowns

Was literally discussing this yesterday with The Pizza Delivery Man and The Gold Palace. As you said switching demands are no where to be found when the two characters meet the conventional stigmas and top is much bigger and aggressive than bottom. I presume they associate the idea of the bottom with what society usually identifies as females qualities ( softness, cuteness, small, etc). A lot of female readers associate themselves with bottoms and that's why usually tops tend to be the most popular characters in bls. All in all just interiorized misogyny, cause there is no reason for you to be asking for a switch when the author has already established roles

YESSS. Like girl its bl for a reason, meaning its about 2 MEN. Not some big ass top with a bottom that looks more like a female then me lmao. This happends in gl too, when they make the top a super masculine girl to the point where she looks like a guy and then a super feminine girl on bottom. Smh this is what happens when hetrosexual stigmatized people make homosexual content.
Oddly enough, those who are yapping about them becoming a versatile couple (switch and vers are NOT the same thing u dumb fks) are only doing this under BLs featuring two masculine figures or when the top/bottom roles don't align with their typical expectations of appearance or behavior for those roles.
Strangely, this discourse doesn't extend to stories portraying STEREOTYPICAL pretty, short, or feminine bottoms paired with tall, masculine, or manly tops, like in « Paint of the Night », « BJ Alex », « Love is an Allusion » or « K’s Secret ».
Y’all are stinky and weird, you cannot fathom a manly dude who only loves to get his ass fked. Weirdos. - sincerely, un pédé
