I just find it interesting how the only times you see comments asking for the couple to switch, is when said couple already breaks the stereotypical heteronormative standards that actual gay men criticize.

Where are all the comments asking the couple to switch under BL like Dangerous Convenience Store, Painter of the Night, or Jinx.

(This has nothing to do with how bad of a person the bottom here is I'm not talking about that)

    No I think ppl want the couple to switch bc the story is so shit, so its not totally unrelated. Ppl don't realize they're reading trash BL and think that it's the couple dynamic making them uncomfy when this is just overall ass. The manhwa u named are pretty well written (or at least have some sort of theme or plot) in comparison to this shitshow.

    But yea, most ppl prefer seeing twinks at the bottom, and seeing otherwise is a turn off for them. It's def got to do with heteronormativity but it can be as simple as a preference too.

    You don't understand what I mean. In so many BLs the top are WAY worse than anything this uke is. Literally physically abusing the bottom. Jinx and POTN have some of the most HATED tops in the entirety of the BL fandom. Yet where's all the comments asking them to switch.

    I've never read Jinx but I've seen many complaints that it's terribly written apparently

    That is bc again, ppl prefer seeing the top be dominant, even to the point of assholery. If given the right excuse to be assholey and rough, or just straight up commiting crimes, ppl will look past that bc those ppl are horny for the top biggity big man to be tough and manly. It does include a good big gulp of heteronormativity tho. Is all I was trying to say-
