So, from time to time, I watch true crime videos, but in the comments, people are always like, 'Poor dogs' or 'Poor children.' Yet no one seems to care about the adults who died in the video. In fact, people even request to see photos of their bodies. I’ve seen many arguments about why trigger warnings are needed for dogs dying but not for adult humans. The reasoning is often that dogs and children are 'innocent' and can't do anything wrong.

But that’s such a naive outlook. Children are capable of hurting others—sure, you can argue it's because of an abusive home. But there are children who come from non-abusive homes and still hurt others. And what about the adults? What have they done to not deserve your sympathy? Lying? I don’t get it. There are adults who’ve never hurt a soul in their lives, so why can’t they be considered 'innocent'?

I personally struggle with hearing about children dying and need a trigger warning for that, but I still feel heartbroken for the adults who died too. Maybe not the same way as for children, but I still care. I think this bias has a lot to do with people having pets. They empathize more with dogs because they imagine losing their own pets, or they witnessed their pets dying so they understand the pain, it does have nothing to do with 'innocent'. But that doesn’t mean we should overlook the humanity of adults who’ve suffered or died

Do you watch YouTube? If so, how much time do you spend on it, and who are your favorite YouTubers? What topics does the YouTube algorithm recommend to you?

For me, I watch YouTube for more than 2 hours a day. My favorite YouTubers are penguinz0, Danny Gonzalez, Kurtis Conner, Drew Gooden, and Chad Chad. The algorithm mostly recommends food and computer-related content.

I'm curious if there are people here who are YouTube enthusiasts like me

finishing making that damn horror video game, it's took me two years just to draw character sprites and I didn't even start on drawing buildings and stuff; nevermind on programing or writing the story, that will take me another two years but I'm not giving up (๑•ㅂ•)و✧.

anything mangas, manhwas, manhuas, movies, anime, books, TV shows anything

just from the cover, you don't have to have already watched it

and, no, I'm not talking about rape I'm talking about women when they commit a scam or being scummy, a big example is the Hawk Tuah girl, I'm tired of people calling her a victim of crypto bros because they just "tricked" her into committing a scam and calling her "a useful idiot" where she herself got millions from the scam, well you see that "useful idiot" got millions and you didn't. you can argue that her career got a hit but people think she is a victim so I think she will be back fine. also, it's interesting how people think she didn't mean to scam her fans because she is not into crypto even though Logan Paul/Jake Paul are her friends, like why she doesn't know about it, is it because she is a woman? is crypto something only men know about? anyway, shoutout to Coffeezilla for calling her out rather than him feeling sorry for her or calling her a "useful idiot".

Give me a queer ship where the characters are very close together and very gay, but the creators just won't make it canon.

I mean, even if they did nothing wrong to you, honestly, I’ve never hated someone who didn’t do anything wrong to me. But I see a lot of people say there’s nothing wrong with hating someone who hasn’t done anything wrong. Honestly, I keep my distance from people who think like that because I don’t want to be hated for no reason, lol.

what I mean by hottest comments is where the likes and dislikes numbers are close to equal or equal.

I mean, like, on your way home or something. Okay, here’s mine: there was this super old, 90-year-old man sitting on a bench. He called me over, and I thought, 'Okay, maybe he needs help or something.' So I asked him what he wanted. But guess what he asked me? He wanted me to go with him behind a house to, you know, do something with him. I was so damn shocked. Of course, I refused, but then he started guilt-tripping me, saying stuff like, 'If I were a young guy, you’d do it with me.' I was just standing there, like, 'Where did he even get that idea from?' I was wearing super conservative clothes, but this old man just started making up fanfiction about me being out here sluting for no reason. ╮(￣▽￣)╭

I'm tired of people comparing BL to hetero. No, just because the bottom is feminine, that doesn't mean he is a woman. He literally "acts" like a guy. What do you want? Also, people keep giving roles like they give them to a straight couple. If the bottom is the one who has experience with a lot of men, he gets called a slut, and people criticize that ML will fix him. If the top is experienced with sex with a lot of men, he gets called a manwhore, and people criticize it because he will have eyes only for MC. Like this kind of narrative, most go for a straight couple, yet people apply it to BL.

Also, I don't understand; you keep saying BL is for the female gaze, yet you complain about how it's making bottoms "women" and it's not for your eyes; you prefer "men." Like, pick a lane. It's either BL for women because hot guy X hot guy or something else.

Another thing is how "applying hetero to BL" I have seen people compare bottoms to women and say that the author is a woman who wants to be a guy in a gay relationship (call the author a fetishizer while she is at it), except if she researched the author and researched his previous work, the author is a man who has a type for feminine men. I don't know why people go to such lengths to believe that queer men or women don't like feminine men who bottom. There are queer men who like feminine bottoms. Most of the time, bara doesn't deliver that to them, so they use BL for that. Just because they like men, that doesn't mean they like macho guys and don't have a type for feminine men.

I'm not denying BL has some heteronormative issues, but the masculine top is the problem more than the feminine bottom. He is the one who has to be strong and more masculine compared to the bottom. How many BL do we have that have a feminine top compared to a masculine bottom? Not a lot. These days, we have a bunch of masculine bottoms, but feminine tops are so hard to find.

Still, even with the heteronormative issue, it still doesn't feel like reading straight (except for omegaverse). Because if it's felt like "reading straight," you are not going to find me consuming it because I'm a heterophobe lol.

And don't let me start on people who don't want to read BLs with top POV because it's for the "male gaze." WTF does that even mean? Don't you read BL because it's gay? Why are you making it a men vs. women issue?

A character you think would be way better with the MC instead of the love interest — or side characters that you think work well together.

While bisexual people exist more than gays or lesbians. I think people refuse to identify as bisexual and refuse to acknowledge their same-sex attraction. Like, for example, "straight" men's attraction toward femboys—liking femboys is really popular these days, but no one likes to acknowledge that they have some attraction toward the same sex? I think people misinterpret their attraction toward femininity as attraction toward women or vice versa, with straight women. I really do believe that people in the world are mostly bisexual, and they just don't know it.

For me, there is this guy who made a Facebook account acting as my mother, he used it to talk to my friend and my aunt and make up stories about us. And literally, my friend and my aunt came to us with stories that never happened to us like we traveled to a city, mind you at that time we hadn't traveled for five years, at first my friend thought he was stalking her or something, but the guy was talking to my aunt too. Anyway, I'm sure the guy was my age and was around me because he knew who my friend was, how he got my aunt's Facebook account is easy I'm sure facebook suggested that account because of the last name, but I swear to god till this day I don't know who this guy was.

so I was reading "I Have To Be A Great Villain" and I reached the BL cultivator arc, I'm not gonna lie this plot pissed me off, basically MC friend (who is a woman) got the uke role, even though I like here I just find it weird there were a bunch of Josie roles and she had none of them she didn't have any romance with guys but somehow when the author made her take the uke role she fucked a man as a gay guy and the comments were like " she is living the dream" none of the comments called it weird. am I conservative, if it's not weird I would like to know why. honestly, I really didn't like it, it would be fine with it if she just only took the Uke role but the author involved her in sex parts it really gave me the vibe of "every fujoshi dream" vibe

for me, my criticism is mostly with MLs they are always (mostly) alone they don't have friends, and their only focus is the MC it's just one-dimensional writing. like give them friends, give them people that they can care for in platonic ways, somehow in BL the MC is the only ones that have friends while the the ML (mostly) always has to be alone, so his focus will be only on MC which just boring in my opinion.
also, I just hate how they are violent most of BL stories have a violent ML who is violent toward other characters like beating, and killing, and also, has an anger issue I just hate seeing them hurt other characters and the author make them get zero repercussions. so it's just make me mad at the story tbh

I'm not gay
I don't like men
I never imagined myself sucking a dick but here I'm doing it
you are the only man that I can fall in love with

That happened to me when I was a kid. Anyway, in middle school, I was friends with people who were way out of my league—really smart in school—while I, on the other hand, sucked at it. Bear in mind, I was friends with them as people, not because I wanted anything from them. I never asked them for anything.

Other classmates called me their dog, but I didn’t care—I genuinely loved them as my friends. But people clearly felt jealous of our friendship. There was this girl who suddenly wanted to start being their friend and push me out of the picture. (I say "suddenly" because it wasn’t random—it was the end of the year, and exams were around the corner, so she probably wanted to benefit from them to get better results.)

Anyway, she started walking with us on the street, cracking jokes here and there. And somehow, she pushed me out of the way—literally—and they left me to walk behind them. At that moment, I realized my classmates were right: I was a dog all along, lol.

This girl and I lived in the same neighborhood, so while the other girls went their separate ways, she walked with me. But instead of being nice, she insulted me the whole way. She said I was useless, a loser, and didn’t deserve to be their friend. Of course, that really hurt. So the next day, I told my “friends” about it. And guess what? They didn’t believe me, lol.

I had been their “friend” for a whole year, and they chose to believe this girl they just started talking to the previous day. They said, “She wouldn’t do that; she’s a good person.” Like a loser, I started crying. I wish I could go back to my past self and tell her not to cry and just end that friendship right there. But nope—they chose her because they found her funny.

That moment changed my whole perspective on friendship. I stopped forming emotional attachments to people.

Someone was constantly sexually harassing me during my training at a restaurant, and no one cared enough to talk to him about it or make him stop. In fact, they encouraged me to give him a chance by telling me he was the owner's nephew and that he went to America. But anyway, there was one woman who would step in and tell him to stop when she saw him going too far.

I was constantly blamed for being sexually harassed because I didn't confront the people doing it to me. Honestly, they're right—I hate that I'm a coward. I find confronting people terrifying. But that woman never blamed me for it, and I’m grateful for her.
I notice a lot of negativity on Mangago—most of the questions are either depressing or negative. I’m guilty of that too. Let's try to be positive this time.

Even if the other side didn't do anything wrong, honestly, for me, I don't hate it, Sometimes I even find it cute that people are so passionate about BL that they want to share it with a loved one. But I can't help but cringe when a girl says, 'I want a Fudanshi boyfriend who also likes BL so we can read it together,' or when a guy says, 'I want a fujoshi girlfriend who also likes BL so we can read it together.' It’s cute if the BL is something like Uncanny Charm, but imagining it with Jinx just makes me cringe.
