Re: Genderswap and abusive ships

I think it's not a matter of "is it abusive or not", it's a matter of "would readers be as quick to handwave the potentially abusive situation".
Take all those manga/anime where the yandere girlfriend keeps beating up the guy for the most harmless things. It's in almost all cases played for laughs. Swap the genders and it's suddenly not so funny.

That makes a lot more sense. It bothers me that people view those two cases so differently though.

This is how I see it too. A woman's possible mistreatment of a man isn't as readily recognized as such, or there's more leeway given. It's about audience perception, not fact.
