Reading straight manhwa after getting sick of BL for awhile, i finally understand why i keep avoiding this genre. They piss me off. In BL power dynamics feel more balanced, like equal? As for straight stories they always write women being passive, naïve, or constantly needing saving, while the men are powerful, stoic, and “in control.”

    You're dead right. I never thought about why I enjoy bl so much but I think this is exactly it
    Feels like I just had an epiphany

    AGREEE or either the fl is really dumb or either The writer keeps saying the Fl is smart and a fighter when in reality the writer just making the story looks dumb just for her to be smart. And then her being a "fighter" is using her man like gurl? Its so overused, but im not saying all of them, its like barely even worth reading straight, there are still good worth read straight manhwas, but they are HIDING
