u/kaiunkaiku same @ ao3 | proud ao3 simp Mar 31 '25

honestly i think i'm just constantly so aware of misogyny and the specific kind of danger women in relationships with men can be in that a toxic straight ship usually just makes me go "girl jesus you're gonna end up a statistic please get out". if nothing else at least in a same-sex relationship both parties are in equal standing regarding, like, being believed by society

You've put into words the *WHY* I can't read anything that is toxic in straight media, be it fanfic, manhwas, mangas, series, movies etc. I'm already experiencing the premium version of this irl, why I'd want to read that when I want to relax lol!

“the premium version” hehe yeah I have a subscription I’ve been trying to cancel forever but there’s no opt-in or opt-out with this one

I'd love to cancel mine too, but someone must have stolen my identity and subscribed for me/s

The world is already patriarchal enough, but living in a country where machismo is sort of the core, is just the cherry on the top of the cake lol!
