      i recently read a hockey romance book popular on tiktok, the male lead threatens to SA the female lead, verbally abuses her, violates her privacy repeatedly (walks into her space while she is naked and refuses to leave), is extremely controlling, belittling and at points physically abusive and she still goes back to him after all of that, and the goodreads reviews were eating it up with a 4 star score
      edit: book was called Broken Boy by Hannah Gray and did not mention in the summary/intro that it contained outright abusive behaviors (this is where my problem is) and the male lead never apologized for it either when we are supposed to like him. it was framed as a good thing and wasnt tagged/mentioned otherwise

      So glad to see pushback from people about legal, but brow raising age gaps. My sibling had turned 19, JUST gotten out of a toxic relationship, and ended up dating another man they had both had sexual relations with (all three of these individuals are polyamorous). That man was 33.
      I know my sibling is an adult with autonomy for themselves, but I do worry. They were so young, had just gotten out of a bad relationship, and had no foundations of an independent life set up, which is REALLY what I think matters in these age gap issues.
      If someone 18 or older is mentally and emotionally mature enough to start building their own life, to me, it makes it MUCH less predatory when older folks take an interest in that person.

    Never, NEVER understood the appeal of a man showing me love through aggression, violence and annoyance. Nothing remotely romantic and sexy about someone constantly being mean towards me, grabbing me and degrading me. Nothing sexy about a man stalking me, unable to leave me alone because ''he loves me so much''. Nothing sexy about a man who is so jealous of other men he gets physically violent. Not one man in these scenarios being actually caring, empathetic or compassionate. No one has actual sense of humor in these stories.

      the sad reality of people thinking such things are desirable are usually people who have such low self-esteems that they want someone to kiss the ground they walk on. They want to be desired, to be loved so much that their perception of love is obsession to balance the hollow feeling in their hearts.
      so I'd take a guess that they think that the abusive behavior is what they view as normal/healthy while the crime stuff likely to, unless they think it is hot since they're not bound by moral code, as they say "the hero might sacrifice you for the world while the villain would sacrifice the world for you." there's even a song of this delusional desire called "dating the villain" by Maddie Malekos.

      When I was in school I'd have a crush and "enemy" for the year. There was only one time I thought of having a crush on my enemy, tho most times the enemies were just mean to me and I didn't like them.
      The one enemy/crush want too bad.
      I grew out of this by 7-9th grade.
      Last time I had a crush like that was a person who was actually mean to me but I didn't see them as an enemy. 9th grade was when I stopped having crushes and enemies all together bc it was meaningless and got absorbed by my writing instead.

What??) and they were like ohhh he’s super innocent this one
    But he had his age in his bio and everything and even ended up making a video about how hey, he’s 16!

I'm also not convinced it's comprised entirely of teenagers but women in their 20s and 30s that are simply inexperienced when it comes to this sort of thing. Hence they gravitate to these saucier scenarios that are more exciting/less of a commitment than the irl experience of being in a relationship.

      but you have to realize at the end of the day, nobody real is being harmed and this is all fiction. theres a reason why this is on the internet and its cuz its a controlled environment where you have the ultimate say in whatever happens, you can close the tab and move on with your life if you dont like something. And theres also a reason why this stuff is becoming so popular: women are often shamed for being sexual in literally any regard, and books like these are an escape into a world where they have the ultimate say and agency but get to experience a faux-powerlessness for a bit. not like the real, harmful, systemic powerlessness women often face irl.

    Funnily enough, the reason for all the hockey books is racism. They used to write more sports romances about popular sports like football and basketball, but when poc rightfully questioned how there were only white people on an American basketball team, the authors decided to pivot to primarily white sports instead of adding black people into their stories. They are also trying to push golf, but readers love a bad boy trope, and no one is buying a "bad boy golfer" in a polo shirt and khakis. It's honestly hilarious😂 and it's a plus that the writing sucks regardless.

    I wish that there was more education on having a kinky but consensual relationship. Like the guy doesn’t HAVE to be abusive and mean, but if you’re into it you can roleplay that stuff. I want to see more stuff like “he was afraid to slap her” etc. like more of the people in the relationship discussing their kinks and fantasies and then acting them out rather than it being fully real. Like having some consensual nasty af s*x sounds so much hotter to me than the girl being genuinely scared during the situation. Edit: I do not read stuff like this I just meant it SOUNDS more attractive to me for things to be consensual, I know fanfiction like this exists. But I mean there should be more authors publishing books like this rather than all the weird abusive garbage that gets popularized on tiktok.

      ​@@harutosoma7186 There definetely is. People who for the longest time have felt lost and sheltered or people who ahve to always make constant decisions with unbearable weight. they do appreciate a fantasy *emphasis on FANTASY* of not being in control for once.
      Of having someone that does that for them sexually. Admittiedly it might sound weird and I get that people don't really get it. I am not really good at explaining it either but I definetely understand the appeal.
      I had a friend who was very much into that because she was very much lost in life. She liked the fantasy of giving herself up, having someone in charge, because sometimes it felt like she wanted to do just that IRL, to give up on everything and have her life for once not in her own hands but someone else's. there are probably tons of reasons why but what people don't realize is that non con is not immediately the r word. it can be subtle things , scandalous ,even ridiculous that people would never dare do in real life and that is also what makes them a bit appealing. in fiction there is no such thing as societal pressure. This friend actually made lend me some of her spicy books and while it wasn't for me I can understand why she liked it. but at the end of the day it's still a fantasy, noone should ever have to go through that in real life.
      Because people in real life or characters written on a page they are people, and sadly nowadays some people think they are a main character and fantasize horrible acts.

      @@harutosoma7186not op, but there can be an appeal to it:
      for victims of sexual assault or rape it can be cathartic to experience non-con in a fictional setting where they have ultimate control over the situation (closing the book).
      non-con also squarely puts the blame on one actor, while the other is resolved of all responsibility. this can be interesting to (primarily) women, who are often shamed when they are sexually forward in real life.
      in a fictional non-con scenario, they can identify with the who is subjected to the advances of another, and can thus experience pleasure without the related shame.
      but these are very adult topics and they should not be shown to teenagers, as they unfortunately sometimes are on tiktok.
      i’m personally not interested in non-con at all, but i can understand how/why someone might be.

    I know this is like... not the point of your channel 😂😂 but I have to thank you bc I've gotten into the best shape of my life because of your videos. I constantly listen to them in the gym and my mind wanders soooo much I end up working out for way longer than I ever could before. So thank you!!!
