I just wished authors would actually try a little to make stories about female adults without need to always portray bisexual as cheaters, especially when their partners are good guys who they hurt with their actions, make the guy a villain, or is it so hard to make a bisexual woman who was with guys and girls but actually doesn't hurt her current husband to be with a woman but is single? The combo of bisexual cheating is pretty much given as adult females go.
And it rather shows author's lack of originality about the issue which is a bit poor move from Shimura side.
I STRONGLY AGREE
I agree that it's a popular trope in such stories, to the point it's become practically cliché.... usually makes for a pretty angsty drama filled story tho! It also happens a lot in the real world as far as I'm concerned. Some of my fav real life dramas to follow on fb were old school mates going through exactly that, some leaving their hubbies/baby daddy's due to them being arseholes and finding a lady to love later on in life, others cheating on bfs with a chick (some sticking to it, others going back to men again). There were more than a handful of them realising they were interested in the opposite sex, didn't always work out for some, but others are happy and some are even 2 mamma families now. Regardless, I enjoyed the drama surrounding the cheating relationships (I'm only human and humans are horrible anyway so anyone's hatred is welcome) and talking to the people directly involved in these situations (each one had a different story to tell!) so in terms of originality, it isn't based on a specific subject is what I like to believe (isn't that how we get tropes to begin with?)
Although, I really would like to see a drama based non cheating bisexual and or yuri story told more often (hey, even a zero drama, cute fluffy one with SoL elements!), I find it hard not to enjoy these types of stories and unfortunately it's a majority issue all over
If a story is about a married woman discovering her bisexuality, how many ways can it go?
- Get laid and let the yuri fairy sort it out
- Bury your feelings and have those kids (guaranteed massive hit on Dynasty)
- File a precautionary divorce because you felt attraction to a woman (I could see this as a farcical 4-koma)
- Husband is an asshole so anything you do to escape the relationship is automatically OK
Lol, too true!
