Wait, I'm not familiar with the order thing, but I guess you mean you're surprised that there's a lot of stuff with Bucky topping?


I honestly think fics and art with Steve topping are till somewhat more numerous, but you can quite easily find both in the fandom.

I'm not sure what the reasons are. I've heard two theories that sort of make sense. One that it's comic fans who know the Bucky!Cap thing and consider them to be equally matched. Two that it's basically because Bucky had no agency over his body in Winter Soldier,so people are more often writing him as taking control in the bedroom post-brainwashing.

Well, doujinshi are Japanese, and Japanese fandom tastes do not always run along the lines of Western fans' tastes (sometime they're like the dead opposite, lol) but I'm surprised by how much of it is Extreme Uke Steve, I guess. I don't get that read on Captain America's character at all.

Especially given, well, the fandom's propensity for woobifying the equally long-haired and equally tragic pseudo-badguy Loki into Ultimate Weepy Uke territory, the amount of Bucky/Steve surprises me.

Well, maybe they're basing Extreme Uke Steve on pre-serum Steve - that would make sense. Also for Bucky, as he wasn't long-haired and tragic then yet.

I would totally imagine that Bucky would be the bishie dark haired woobie bottom in in doujin, negl.

Saaaaaaaaame. You see how I am perplexed.

Hold over from tiny!Steve, most likely, so the height thing. Also, Steve is probably perceived as nicer in general, 100% pro-Bucky, and if that fails, blonde. More "feminine" characteristics put people on the bottom in fandom minds, although to be completely fair, neither Steve or Bucky really fit the uke bill. I expect a lot of bad characterization is occurring.

Makes sense, yeah. I can see that. Isn't Bucky also older?

Re: Riddle Me This, MCU/Winter Soldier Slash Fans

Yes. By a year.

Steve was born in 1918. Bucky in 1917 according to the films anyway.

Depends which canon you go by - MCU, yes, but not by much. Comicverse Bucky is younger than Cap.

Innocent virgin!Steve is the only reason I can think for that Extreme Uke syndrome.
