"It mature and just fiction" vs condoning something vs it wrong
So I'm curious because I see people having these back and forth argument fiction on new webtoons coming out with darker topics. (Paragraphs incoming)
Is it actually mature/dark romance or is it the author condoning something or is it none and it actually addressed?
So there been a lot of... questionable webtoons original where people have been debating on them and here my thoughts.
So I think we have seen a lot SA, abuse, Rape in webtoons recently. And the debate on whether it wrong or right can go forever. In my opinion, just saying that the story is mature seems like a poor... excuse? None of these things should ever be taken lightly but sometimes it seems like authors don't do their research and throws it as a 'romantic' plot device or a sexy scene. But it none of it. Let bring back actually writing the aftermath of the actions, the victims feeling. Because just saying that it mature and calling a day seems like you guys want a story where everything that is seen wrong is written as okay and justified. And I guess you can label that as 'dark romance' but that more specific than 'mature'.
Also let bare in mind that most of these authors are probably using these as something 'sexy' and indirectly condoning it.
However are readers too sensitive?
I feel like some readers are too quick to attack a character wrong as if no one can be redeem (in some cases of course not). I would love to read a second chance trope of a couple navigating their past mistakes. Because let be real we all makes mistake and act on some impulse (to an extent). So yes I do agree that some readers are sensitive but for the right reasons.
I'm too lazy to write the rest but if you disagree with any of these feel free to share your opinion but in a nice way that just not straight up bashing.
