This is what I mean when I say the fiction you consume can shape your thought process,especially when it comes to harmful, problematic themes like rape or pedophilia.

Funny thing is those you mentioned aren't even redemption arcs, they're just arcs to excuse (not even explain) why them MLs act like a bitch.

Ew.   reply
