I'm not the only person who thinks the whole trope or dynamic that's like "person #1 hates person #2 who is constantly annoying them/insulting them/crossing their boundaries but they actually don't hate them and secretly LOVE it and want to FUCK them" is super fucking weird right. I'm not the only one who sees a problem with that. Right

I don't care what people's personal fantasies are! I know why people like this dynamic and I think that's totally fine, read what makes you happy.

I don't find it appealing though! At all! I think purposefully getting somebody riled up is super unnattractive! I hate it when most people touch me without asking first! I think people who purposefully act super cocky all the time or casually talk down to others are super annoying!! Stuff like that is always portrayed as attractive in romantic media and it makes me super uncomfortable.

I would love to get into romantic books or comics but I can't because that's all it is all the time.

I want to read a romantic story where the main characters communicate and treat each other with kindness ans tenderness right off the bat and aren't constantly fighting or crossing eachother's boundaries or hiding their feelings behind insults and hostility and not have it be treated as synonymous with lighthearted banter or typical relationship problems!! PLEASE

anyway. if you have recommendations for romantic books or comics where the people in the relationship are normal to each other I would love that. especially if it's queer. double especially if it's trans or lesbian. triple especially if it's polyamorous

i dont have any recs on the top of my head but i absolutely agree. i hate people touching me, entering my personal space without asking and being purposely annoying !!!

personally the whole trope reminds of adults gelling little girls the boy bullying her is flirting. maybe thats just me but as someone who has dealt with adults like that and has already read these kind of romances they kinda blur

overall its very icky and i think authors should very stop that

#that and miscommunication#i hate that trope so much#booklr

hey I started doing it and then realized it will take me a ridiculous amount of time for me to go through all of it with accurate sources and information so I want to do like. a survey of interest I guess?

does anyone want an in-depth, thorough analysis of the reasons why vegan diets are impossible or at the least very unhealthy for many people to be [safely] vegan ? it would address the purely biological, dietary, and medical reasons why many people can't or shouldn't be vegan— and why it is often vital to people's health or sometimes obligatory for people to eat meat/animal-derived foods to survive

because I always see people say "not everyone can be vegan", which is true, but I've never seen anything going into detail or explaining the nuanced reasons why unless they're talking about like. themselves or people they personally know, specifically
