>>4674>>4683>>4682I've never understood people who will only read specific seme/uke. Having preferences sure, but good writing and art is good writing and art. Variety is the spice of life, as long as you don't make them OOC you can place them in whatever sexual scenario you want. Variety is the spice of life after all.

I don't know why but this always cracks me up considering that's how I'm lying in bed and scrooling through a mobile carousel of sites like Pixiv, IBs, AO3, and Twitter.

>>4684I used to feel that way too, but I'm starting to get it. I really don't care about seme/uke in sex scenes, but so many people use it as shorthand for personality types and that I do care about. If I don't like how people characterize my favorite when he's the uke, then I stop reading things where he's the uke.

>>4684>as long as you don't make them OOC That's the thing. For some people, character A being a bottom for character B could be considered ooc. Same as the reverse way, etc. It really depends on the character and the dynamic, and not everyone will agree.
There can be the most gorgeous art ever made by fujo michelangela but if it's (my favorite) as (position I don't want) it'll be garbage

>>4686>If I don't like how people characterize my favorite when he's the uke, then I stop reading things where he's the uke.It's this. Sometimes ships are ezmode switches, sometimes I just want to see that twink obliterated, sometimes and most wretched of all is that popular seme/uke fanons pollute the tag. The most common offenders are semes that become a little too daddy when they are kind of a dipshit in canon and ukes that become spineless or tsundere when they are actually very headstrong (and lately this translates into them having a pussy). I have absolutely dropped an objectively "good" fic because the dynamics skewed too far into fanon.
>>4698I have been so desperate for crumbs in a small tag that I've read the fetish stuff and I nearly always regret it. The prose is never really about the character/ship! I'm so sorry this is happening to you too.
No.4701
>>4684I enjoy abusive/darker ships so it wouldnt be the same if the characters switch since it has a shift in dynamic (plus i dont enjoy dom uke)
I can understand why someone would enjoy switch for a fluff/non-violent ships but it just doesnt work for me since i dont find it as interesting
and its used as a scapegoat as "more realistic gay rep!!!" by aidens so its ruined for me. No.4704
>>4686I'm in a sad position because I'm autistic about fixed dynamics but I dislike how a lot of AB/BA shippers write. Most fixed shippers in my fandom are absolutely dogshit at writing and turn the characters into the basic dominant chad and submissive housewife dynamic, write het sex, and completely ignore their canon personalities. In my experience switch shippers tend to have better characterization because top/bottom isn't a factor that influences their character writing, so I just try to find fics from them that have no switching or just skip parts.
No.4706
>>4704Fuck I relate so hard, its so tiring trying to befriend other fixed ship enjoyers but they have an extreme obsession over sex (which is granted cause the sex positions *are* the focal point after all) but I wish there was more to it, like discussion about the ship's dynamic and what led to the characters meeting rather than just "x character takes it up the butt lul" which I can enjoy occasionally but cmon, there has to be more than that right?

>>4684>but good writing and art is good writing and artYou could be the greatest artist humanity has ever seen but there will still be people who prefer other artists. At the end of the day, it all comes down to preferences.

Variety is the spice of life, as long as you don't make them OOC you can place them in whatever sexual scenario you want.I'm a very strict A/B no reverse shipper and truth to be told this is my issue, a lot of people who write B/A completely switch the personalities around and ignore the source canon. Like when A is canonically a dominant personality and B is a submissive one, they write them in reverse. So it's not just about who penetrates who to me, I simply don't like reading things that, in my view, don't respect the source. Naturally it's my own subjective interpretation of course and I'm aware of it, but I'm just explaining my personal autism about it.

>>4714>Like when A is canonically a dominant personality and B is a submissive one, they write them in reverseHaving this sort of problem that leads me to mostly read one version of the ship, would you in theory read the reverse topping order if they were still 'IC'? So A as a dominant bottom and B as a submissive top?
A lot of the time this is what I really want to read but it's so rare to find.
