Lol is this some form of expressing misogynism.
This story depicts a woman who has a strong personality and a powerful job being fcked and humiliated over and over.
They make her notoriously idiotic and arrogantly stubborn, refusing help as she claims to be an independent woman who doesn't need help, then proceeds to get r*ped shortly after.
It's like saying 'shut up, woman. stop being so arrogant, I'll take you down a peg and humble you with my cock!' or 'women who act all high and mighty with their big jobs and claiming to be independent should be put in their place'.
So it's obviously a fantasy about women with authoritative jobs (i.e. Prosecutor, Police Woman) getting insulted with the goal of lowering their dignity.
I would have understood the fantasy of having sex with women in power because of the desire to be with one. But the case always seems to not be about having sex with a strong woman, but rather about putting them down from being one, stripping them of their pride and showing how weak they become.
Unlike smut made catered towards women about powerful men, like a CEO. The fantasy isn't about putting down and humiliating the powerful men. Men in those smut stories for women aren't being shamed to the point of being r*ped for having arrogant personalities or for being independent.
Powerful men are fantasized because they're strong, but strong women are fantasized to be humbled from their powerful positions.
(not all smuts though, just most. I've seen a few smuts about a powerful woman having sex while maintaining her dignity as an authoritative figure.)
I know I shouldn't be reading stuff like this in the first place, but I just wanted to take a peek inside the psyche of a deluded pervert for a little.
This is the difference with fan service (think celebrities or anime) as well. Women like men with muscle who are confident, but men like women who get humiliated or assaulted (think skirts being lifted, women falling in a certain pose, getting exposed and trying to hide it, etc). There's no empowerment in the male gaze, but the female gaze uplifts the guy.
I finished the whole manhua. I'm a bit confused on the ending. I didn't see them defeat the villain. Just the promise that they'll take the evidence and witness they have, and use them against the villain in court. But we don't even reach the court fight or see the villain again.
Also?? The twin babies?? Where were they in the end? She didn't go through with the abortion, and we were gonna wait one more month to see if she can handle giving birth.
I guess the manhua got cut short. Ending seemed very rushed.
For the art, it looks hella funny-looking at the beginning, but you know the artist improved as the chapters went on. You can compare chapter 1 to chapter 140 and see that the art became decent at the end.
So weird. Skipping past the fact FL drugged ML.
Why is that guy even the ML, he didn't even like her one bit. He married her for the wealth, and when she lost everything, he divorced her. He only ever looked for her because of their son. Even when they meet again, ML was engaged to FL's white lotus 'bestie'.
Who would ever want an ML like that?? It's not even a misunderstanding. He's literally just trash with no further explanations. Ughhh my blood pressures acting up again. I thought this was one of those good family manhuas when I clicked, I didn't expect ML to be so awful.
Ooooh their pheromones compliment and help each other... wait, or is this because Euihyun is carrying Taeju's baby?
So, since Euihyun is (presumably still) carrying a tiny Taeju in his belly, Taeju's alpha pheromones can be the one to calm down his emotional instability.
**I remember this from another omegaverse story (Unscented Trajectory). Where once the omega was pregnant with the alpha's baby, no other alpha's pheromones could help calm them down.
Why are Japanese mangas so horrible at romance or revenge stories ಠ_ಠ especially for women. FL will literally have the worst relationship and boyfriend ever, only to be rewarded with another trash playboy ML who, by the way, still has someone else they're in love with.
And the mistress that FL's first boyfriend cheated with, gets a happy ending with another man, and is portrayed as a good person. Bro, she purposefully dated FL's boyfriend, fully knowing how that would hurt her.
I hate how they think that just because they're women, the definition of 'not letting a man get between us' is to be 'besties' even after being an actual home-wrecker. Where is the dignity in all this??? It is so much more pathetic and sexist to believe they'd be good friends after the short-haired blonde bsh did all that. She is a villain and she's not in the slightest bit redeemable for doing what she did to FL.
This does not appeal to anybody's fantasy romance. I understand putting in a few elements of angst and realism in a story, but 99.9% of 'romance' mangas, will always fail to appeal to someone's fantasy.










Awwww, I'm so glad that Euihyun at least comforted the neighbor guy. Most sml just get a really sad ending to their love, but this is the first time I've seen them being given a proper answer
