I have been doing a lot of reflection and soul searching about what I actually *like* in media/entertainment (vs. what I think I’m supposed to like) lately and I came to a conclusion that shouldn’t have been a surprise but was really eye opening to me and I’m hoping some of you can relate. Here it is: 1) I want stories with all kinds of love (as a bi/pan woman, this part was the least surprising 😅) and 2) when men are involved in the romance, I love a hero with a dark/troubled past who has done the inner work to know himself and heal from that trauma. All my fave heroes are that way (the ones I’ve read and the ones I’ve written!) Gets me drooling every time. So there’s my recent self-discovery. Anybody else out there like me? (Also if you’ve got recs that fit this kink (books, TV, movies, etc!) I’d love to have ‘em! 😘)
