Kinda just want to see people's takes on this.
There's a weird purity culture in BL fandoms, like... I've genuinely seen people say stuff like "I can handle incest/SA/abuse, but I draw the line at cheating." Like??? And half the time it's not even cheating, it's just them sleeping with someone else while being aware the other character exists. Almost any time there's a character that sleeps around (when they're not in a committed relationship), there's a significant amount of slut shaming in response, and I don't get it.
But even when it is cheating, how is it that that is treated so much worse than actual sexual assault?
