Everyone here is offering psychological explanations. As a clinical psychologist myself, I understand that yes trauma and a childhood devoid of love or filled with violence can shape someone into a person who lacks empathy. But that doesn’t justify harmful behavior.
Because the truth is: you’ll find people from similar backgrounds who choose completely different paths. Your circumstances may explain your pain, but they don’t excuse cruelty.
I’m not here to judge what’s right or wrong on a personal level. But I will say this clearly: hurting others is never the right choice and it can never be justified. Not in reality, not in fiction.
It shouldn’t be romanticized or written off to make characters more "complex" or popular. Violence is not love. It’s not a tool for emotional depth. And as someone who works closely with the human psyche, I know exactly how deeply stories shape minds how they influence what we accept, expect, and even desire.
Writers and readers alike need to be more mindful. Because narratives matter.

    Well, we are human too. We also do all the naughty stuff. What matters is being ethical and professional. And I give all my trust and love and that's matter.
    If you're curious, my personal reason for reading yaoi is bc I'm bi and live in a very strict environment. I always feel like I need something that breaks the rules and helps me breathe.
    Other than that, I have a very busy mind sometimes it just feels best to giggle like a teenager, having fun. :)

    THANK YOU. I'm neurodivergent and i will never EVER think of using my condition/illness as an excuse to mistreat and abuse somebody like this. I'm tired of everyone justifying jks actions.
