Anyone else feel like there's usually way too much sex in yaoi?

idk man. it's just so excessive. it would be one thing if there was sex once every 5 chapters or something but it's usually an every chapter thing, with one sex scene often lasting multiple chapters. they'll even put a future sex scene in the first chapter before the main couple has even gotten together as a hook?? not only that but the sex is usually so formulaic and boring. ig that yaoi is just meant to be fap material for most people but as someone who actually reads yaoi for the shitty plots (because i like gay /romance/) it just gets so tiring. i don't have a problem with sex per se or i would avoid yaoi altogether, i just have a problem with the frequency of it in bl comics.

can anyone else relate?

inb4 "just read shounen ai":
1. i do read it, just not exclusively
2. most shounen ai is chinese manhua which i highkey am not a fan of

I feel like there is too much sex in Josei as well, I do enjoy the spicy scenes (Only if it's consent sex of course) and if it's a smut with no plot then I would understand but if it has an actual storyline, and they focus too much on the smut then I don't like that. A webtoon or a manga with a storyline can have smut in it as long as the author do...... reply
