Hello, guys. I am actually kinda Hello, guys. I  actually kinda wanted to share my thoughts on wolfau! stories and everything i find quite not-so-bearable. So here goes nothing...

  

#eveything wrong with fantasizing an abusive relationship.

honestly this irks me the most. THE MOST. new authors, young ones and sometimes even mature authors do this in their book. it's really upsetting to see this for me.

 

 

 

now, I have read stories with the sub!mc getting 'kidnapped' and all that. generally we call it 'Stockholm syndrome' when a victim falls in love with their captor. in wolf stories 90% of the time it's like this. but, some of them Do Not torture the victim to death while some of them Do. if the 'kidnapped' person is not being treated like utter trash and actually has some guts, with blowing plots and twist, then I can read the story. the character buildings, the setting, the reason, if these are satisfying and reasonable then i, personally, will read the story. but if the whole story is about a damsale-in-distress and a jerk type of mc with an utter  trash personality then I will drop that story immediately. 

 

yes! we love dominating alpha male. we do. but dominating doesn't necessarily mean they have to act like trash towards their own mate/love interest/chosen one. there's no excuse of torturing! 

 

the 'excuse' that I see in most of the story is that the captor couldn't 'control' himself. now, while I understand if there was a 'darkforce' possessing him while torturing than it maybe be at least believable.

 

now onto the damsel in distress type of mc. honestly some characters start out awesome but lose themselves on the way. Don't make the mc fantasize about how hot and y her/his mate is when that 'mate' is whipping her/him for God's sake. *sigh* if I exclude pwp stories, most of the stories make a wolf story about more ual attraction. why? coz it's what ppl think we, readers, want. nope. no. nada. 

 

abusing someone is not okay. your excuse? I DON'T CARE. a mate is supposed to be a precious thing to wolves. so imagine my distaste when I read a book with an extremely abusive nutjob of a alpha male and the victim still romanticizes or feels 'hot and bothered while watching his six pack and muscles flex'. this makes the 'bond' seem more like a liability than anything else to the readers. *sorry if this seemed a bit rude but I just need to say it like this to fully explain.*

 

 

 

now another thing is the friends of either party telling the victim to -it-up, now not literally but it goes something like this, "I know you have suffered but he's suffering too, he's sorry and why can't you give her/him a chance. he's an alpha, his wolf and he needs you." SAY WHAT NOW!

 

honestly this pisses me of on so many levels. this is just a short version of a conversation. but this is so wrong! yeah, I know the story won't progress unless s/he gives the other a chance but, guilt tripping the victim by using the bond us freakin wrong. like, I know that they are their friends but think about the person who suffered first. recovering from an abusive relationship isn't something you just do in a matter of days.

 

***

 

the bottom line is Don't make your story downgrading by romanticizing an abusive alpha male or just a normal human(this happens more in wolf books though.)

 

peace out.

 

 

 

if I have hurt anyone know that, I wasn't personally attacking anyone. I tried not to sugarcoat my words 'cause I wanted authors to know how a reader feels about this. 

 

feel free to comment anything you think(just don't start beef with me.)

also, tell me if you want another blog like this or anything you want an opinion on.
