Fm, I judge top and bottom in terms of like whoās more dominant or whoās more submissive in the relationship (if thereās no hints or porn) but sometimes there are tiny hints of whoās top and bottom in sum Chinese manhuas. Yk smt like āmy back hurts because of youā or somewhere along those lines

Also, your take is ridiculous. Top and bottom refers to their roles, yes, but we don't have to see the actual roles. Just like you don't need to see someone having sex to believe them when they tell you they're top or bottom.
How can you have read so much and just have such a nonsensical take? Even shounen ai have tops and bottoms.
Perhaps having read a lot is not enough and you need to read for a couple of years to develop some critical thinking because "I've read a lot" only means something when you also use your brain

Also, saying you've read a lot and not knowing that stories marked as yaoi will necessarily have sex and shounen ai is necessarily without sex, unless there's a mistake, is wild.
Usually having read a lot is indeed a valid power argument but I'm afraid you're the exception to the rule. You've read a lot but nothing got into your brain.
LMAO WHY YALL TALKING ABT TOP AND BOTTOM IN A CHINESE MANHUA
