Dear OP if you like ereri more just say so!
Just don't write about how eruri fandom portrays Levi, and how it's wrong. Because you don't know a thing. There are many arts, fanfics where Levi and Erwin are portrayed as two equal mature men, there are also many works with bottom Erwin.

OP

Every single time I've seen Erwin/Levi it's always big strong protector!man Erwin with delicate, slim Levi. Do I doubt there are a few fics/fanarts where Erwin finally gets dicked by Levi? Not at all.

Do I think that it's nearly as prevalent as the flip-flopping between Eren/Levi and Levi/Eren? No. I've never seen one doujinshi in the wild where Erwin gets it from Levi, and I search Toranoana by "SnK general" (meaning all the doujinshis in the series come up, not just a specific couple). Meanwhile like every third doujinshi is Levi/Eren, or Eren/Levi, and the pairing top/bottom dynamics switches often. Not to mention actual switching doujinshi!

I'm not saying "Erwin/Levi is shit and you have shit taste!", I'm saying the fandom in general has shit taste and reinforces annoying gay gender roles too much, and it bugs me how prevalent it is. I'm actually glad to hear that there is some stuff for fans of Erwin/Levi (and Levi/Erwin) that isn't the woobiefied crap I keep seeing though, because as I said even though they're not my taste at all, it's not the actual pairing that bothers me.

It's a mostly Japanese prevalent fandom. (When you're talking doujin and stuff.) What do you expect.

OP

Except I'm very much talking about the Western fandom too. And what exactly does "what do you expect" mean? Why is there a ton of Eren/Levi, Levi/Eren equality but basically nothing for Levi/Erwin? The Japanese fandom is just mirroring the hardcore bedroom role fetishization that the Western fandom clings to with this pairing as well. It's abnormally weird how little Levi/Erwin there is. I've had many, many ships where the fetishization of bedroom roles was pretty apparent, and even then I didn't have to dig too far to find fanart, fic, and doujinshi of the big manly tough stoic dude getting his ass plowed by his younger, lean pretty boy partner.
