So u mean this manga contains rape? I was just planning to start reading this today. Looked interesting to me but.....first time I didn't read it because the age gap was too much for me to even take. TBH I like age gap but this one....agh now ur guys comments is making me confused whether I should read it or not.....

I feel obligated to post because I actually found my answer not to long ago. It turns out that I didn't like the rape part, I really liked the possessive characters. Normally there is some history between them, or/and MC was a price of driftwood on ML's life that he couldn't let go. It turned out that I secretly wanted to be that price of driftwood in someone else's life, be depended on and wholly wanted/needed. I was compelled to the rape tag because those books are the most likely to contain the outwardly possessive characters. And some of my favorite books, rape or not, also have really possessive ML's. At the same time though, I really hate Stockholm syndrome. Like no, he did something really aweful to you, you need to be madder than 3 pages, you need to try and escape, teach ML a lesson, cuz he's being an A-Hole. Also I really like the "I'm gay only for you" type of books, same likeliness to have possessive ML. So there might be people who constantly find themselves going back to the rape tag, not because they like rape itself, but they have something else they want that they aren't admitting to themselves, like I did. Btw I was reading rape books for about 3 years before I made this realization that I was just lonely and wanted to be needed. Hope that broadens your perspective on why people might like the rape tag.

Hey it's not only you but its everyone! Even I like you know the rape tag because as you said they have possessive characters! In every one of our we have a hole that we try to...you know...fill it up which is....Mnaga's. I hate people when they say to me, "Oh, You like manga? Thats soooo stupiddd! You are weird."And I say in my head, "Oh pls b*** you won't ever understand the meaning of manga and how meaningful it is to my life." Tbh I was always alone. Didn't like talking to ANYONE. I felt like I should push them away because I feel like they are destroying me. But tbh manga is just a.....temporaray solution to our life. It may fill up the hole we have in our life but only temporarily. Our life is out there in this huge world. And its up to us how we fill up that hole. We can either do it by reading manga's or trying something new! So I finally made a decision that slowly I am gonna distance myself from that tag and yaoi. Because I finally have something that I want to do in my life. (But not that soon! I am still gonna stick out for a while)

I was gunna say, that's a difficult goal. Reading is my break from the work and all my work. I like yaoi in particular because they are light reading and short, so I can finish one in an hour or two. Also, I can get to the any any fast if I'm in the mood to read that. Lately I've been having trouble investing myself in stories, so I've been reading more romances and lighter novels. No way am I going to stop anytime soon, but maybe in the future when I have my own life and lover, or other, more active interests. But for now I'll stay in my little, happy, introverted bubble with my Chinese novels, manhwa, and yaoi. Also, nice outlook on life. And don't stop doing what you love because of what others say it's stupid. Granted rape yaoi should be something we wean ourselves from, but other forms of manga are just like books, no need to stop a book addiction cuz others tell you. We may be a separated community, but we have each other's backs XD

Haha tbh when I said I want to distance myself from yaoi that's......actually not true.....My sis and my mom they are like....telling me its not good to read this yaoi manga's(which is actually true and I am NOT gonna deny it.) They think its gonna affect my life but......I don't wanna give up yaoi manga's which has solely supported my life for literal 4 years!! But I just know that even if I do read yaoi I dont....wanna change.....I dont want to! My family will really be dissapointed if I do. One thing for sure I know is that I dont wanna give up manga. It has taught me a lot in my life(even though its just for entertaitment), haha. But Yaoi...? Yea.....I wanna distance myself lil by lil. But now is not the time. Haha and yes I know that when the time comes I will leave it.
I don’t wanna see this anymore... stop with the notifications man... in the beginning it was funny an cute and I liked it... then when they got sent to the old knights world... rape here rape there rape every where... I’m TIRED of the rape... I hate rape so much... rape isn’t sexy or hot it’s disgusting and gross and who ever likes rape... tf is wrong with you...? I also dislike people that say “I like rape in books and mangas/anime but not in real life” that’s so fucked up to me... it’s like normalizing rape... rape should not ever be normalized...
