It's not unrealistic, but it's also not unrealistic to write any given character as verse. So the opposite is also true.

How will we ever deal with the fact that people have different preferences regarding how they like to have sex? I don't even know.

Yeah except I didn't say switches are unrealistic. Switches exist. Tops and bottoms exist too. Saying any of them are unrealistic is dumb, is what I'm saying. If you want more bottom!Bob or top!Bill they should say what they mean and say they think it's hot, not do the "it's unrealistic, everyone switches"

Oh I get what you meant now. And yeah, no, not everyone switches. If they did I would be a lot less bored by some partners I've had.

Yeah, every time someone trots out the "unrealistic" argument or insists characters would never top or bottom all the time I cringe. People like that exist, reality is so much more versatile than they think, pun not intended

I exclusively prefer one or the other depending on who it's with buuut I'd never call myself "versatile" because in practice I'm not. GL finding someone writing a character like that in fanfic though, right? You mean characters can have more than one relationship in a lifetime? With different dynamics? gasp

If it makes you feel better, the novel I and my partner are in the process of writing has a main character who exclusively tops with his gay lover but has in the past only been a bottom with another man.

So... yeah man, I understand you. That's not how it works for me most of the time, but I am totally on board with the different relationship dynamics approach.

That's why it's a novel and not a fanfic, right lol

Good luck with it though :)

Well, I do the same in my fic universes when writing them, but tbh I don't really get that much opportunity to do those. Too consumed with bigger projects.

But thanks. :)
