Hello friends!!

Thought it would be fun to start a discussion about tropes in BL cuz I've been thinking about them a lot recently. I wanna know what you guys think—what BL tropes/common themes do you tend to dislike? Maybe you hate enemies to lovers, reincarnation stories, polar opposite personalities, the hyper-specific engineering university setting (lol), etc., etc. (these are just a few examples of common tropes, I don't hate any of these lol).

I personally really don't like the whole omegaverse thing, I've been seeing a lot of stuff that involves it recently like Revenged Love and TONS of different BL manga series', but idk, I just can't get into it lol.

Also I feel like some tropes can kind of be viewed differently by trans people because of a lot of them involving gender stereotypes and stuff like that, so I'd love to hear everyones different perspectives! :D
