Am I too woke?
Okay so, I’ve been on this site for god knows how long. I’ve read tons of manga, manhwa, manhua, and novels — I’m not illiterate. I’ve even published stuff on AO3.
What I don’t get is: why do so many people just forget about the victims of SA in BL and yaoi?
I’ve come across so many works that are cute, fluffy, and funny on the surface. But if you look closely at the details, there’s clear SA in there. And the comment section is just… so forgetting... Like, sure, maybe it’s “needed for the plot,” but is it really necessary?
And when you actually point it out, people start blaming the victim instead. Like… are we even reading the same story??
No, you’re not too woke. Its just that most people probably only read it for the porn and dont care about the moral or social aspects of it because its fiction. Or they dont want to consider it because it would mean rethinking their world view and maybe acknowledging that something they themselves have done would be considered SA.
As for the SA ......
