Rant time
Gonna be a bit negative, so proceed with care. It involves non-con/rape, me complaining about other people's writings (not a callout, or I don't think so, just me expressing how I feel) and other triggering things, possibly. Oh, and it deals with RWBY, Naruto, Danganronpa and other fandoms.
Know what freaking annoys me? How... Normalized rape and non-con stuff gets to be, especially with guys, and especially with the pretention of fluff/harem play
What do I mean by that? Well, Rwby posts, Naruto posts, any of that, which pose scenarios with the main guys and girls where like... For example. Jaune and Team RWBY are in the shopping. Yang and Blake want to be with Jaune, so they distract Ruby and Weiss before dragging Jaune towards the booth, where he resists, even as they strip him down.
And all of that is written as if it is normal for him to resist. Like it's cute. Or things where Jaune is forced to be with a girl, or where a girl is wildly aggressive and Naruto is more scared than anything else.
Imagine the opposite scenario, with Sun and Neptune dragging Blake there and fucking her. Wouldn't that be clearly rape? Or Naruto pinning Hinata as she asks, 'no, she doesn't want it'? That is clearly rape. So why is that the male not being into it normalized while the contrary isn't?
I'm not saying that you can't write non-con. I'm not particularly into it but can be a hot thing to write, and your kinks are your own as long as you don't hurt anyone. But...
If you want to write Jaune with whoever, why not write him into it? Like, the scenario above, write him as willing but scared about being caught! But show that he wants the girls! Show his attraction, affection and lust! Otherwise, you're writing rape, and it seems you don't even realize it. And that is the bit that annoys me the most.
They write it all as if it's normal for the guys to not be into it. Like they should be resisting it and by enjoying something is wrong. It's like a full reversion of the puritan image of what sex should be, and it's as anger-inducing as the other way of writing it is.
So, how do I think you should write stuff? Well, if you're writing it with the intention of it being non-con, no notes, you do what you enjoy. This, once more, isn't about you. But if you want to write something that is consensual about two characters... write that?!
Like, straight up, write about it being consensual. Show that both parties want it. Show how Jaune is into it, how Izuku does like the flirting, how Naruto can barely hold himself back! There are many ways of writing conflict that would make for a straight smut scene not happen instantly, but at the same time you don't gotta write it with one half of the pairings not enjoying it. Just... ugh, yeah, been annoyed about that for a long time, sorry for the long rant
