so i made a post on couple subreddits awhile ago asking for recommendations where the bottoms are expressing tbeir enjoyment and there arent wait and stops and everyone was so helpful so i compiled all the recs into a list!!! pls add anything i may have missed into the comments on this post or on anime planet itself!! i think u need an account to view this list but if more than like 2 ppl want access w/o an account i’ll make a mangaupdate list. 🙂
every entry that ive read so far has comments/reasoning. i’ve added a screenshot of the list so that those w/o anime planet accounts can decide if they are interested in the list 🙂
i’ll put the link here so that anybody who doesnt want to read my long winded explanation doesnt have to LMAO but if u want more deets about the list they are here
https://www.anime-planet.com/users/gojotism/lists/bottom-enjoyment-rec-list-1358179
basically there are a couple tiers that they fall into:
1) actually no stops waits or nos bottom enjoys themselves everytime. “yes” “please” and “depeer” said by bottoms
2) there are some stops waits or nos but everyone is enthusiastic and always/generally enjoying sex. bottoms express enjoyment
3) stop waits or nos (potentially to some ppls definition of dub con) or mb under negotiated kink. something happens and the bottom doesnt enjoy himself during a particular experience but it doesnt go unaddressed. these will still usually have the bottom expressing enjoyment
4) dubcon or lots of stop waits or nos while the bottom expresses enjoyment at different points throughout the smut. this category is personally a bit too far for me but i add these to the list for ppl who have high tolerance to dub con and stop waits and nos while still wanting to read something where the bottom verbally expresses enjoyment.
that is usually the kind of standard i hold the bl i read to to be in the list. if anyone sees anything on there that pushes that lmk bc i read rly quickly so it is possible i miss stuff. i dont put those numbers in the review but i try to be pretty clear about where each thing ive read falls into
also a disclaimers that this isnt a list intended to disclose any presence of dub/non con. if u want a list that points out non/dub con here is the most thorough i have found so far: https://www.mangaupdates.com/lists/public/qoi8ww9/101
PS i posted this on r/BoysLoveAnime but i meant to post it here so more ppl could see it but i didnt wanna delete the og after ppl already saw it!
