The fact that this is categorized as Boys Love is gross. I hate the “falling for your rapist trope.” That trope especially makes it seem like rape is nbd and you’ll still get your happy ending. It’s sick honestly. The one thing I hate most about BL is how often SA is involved bc it normalized that kind of behavior. It’s almost like it’s brainwashing the women that read it to believe this kind of behavior is okay.
Honestly, these boy-love assault stories really get under my skin. What’s even worse is how often the victim ends up feeling guilty and develops feelings for the person who harmed him. It’s frustrating to see and we often refer it to as Stockholm syndrome. Now I see this is something unnatural and beyond simple explanation.
Yeah I know, I find myself drawn to these stories and venting about them in the comment section. Can't help it lol
