Yeah. Well the canon couple I was talking about, (I'm convinced that they switch anyway, but I do think that one of them tends to prefer to be on the bottom...) one of them *does* cry quite a lot. But, that's not because he's the bottom! It's because that's just how he *is*. And in lots and lots of other aspects, he's very strong. He's opinionated, loud, talkative, confident (except in relationships, when he goes into paranoia), etc. The 'top' one, he is extremely kind, doesn't like rocking the boat, and is quiet. He also wants to be a father. He's very protective though, in his way. But he has issues with not always realising he's done something wrong, and also with lying. They're both really nice people, both with their own issues and personality types. Both protective of each other, in different ways. Both have flaws and strengths. They are *not* stereotypes. And I've seen people getting bothered by that before. That there's not 'the manly one' and the 'girlie one'. It ... disarms them. And that really pisses me off...

And sure, some characters with Problems and Issues *might* cut, or like sex, or like being protected by their boyfriends, or whatever. But... at least make it plausible people...

WORD. Agreed to everything here. Also, I'm sick of "weepy uke" being a concurrent pathology with drinking/drug abuse/cutting/EDs/nymphomania/crying/whatever. Just because someone has one or more of these, doesn't mean the uke stereotype should be invoked. Grr.

Totally. *sigh*
I'm sure there are relationships which fit into those stereotypes, but, don't *force them into it for no reason*

Oh yeah. >_

I just have to say...your conversation here was AWESOME. I agreed with nearly every word. *thumbs up* Now I know there are other people that think the same way, AND can have a reasonable conversation on this community...

Aww, thank you. *bow* ^_^
