The Heroine Always Has the Right to Say No

I love wicked villains, scheming self-interest, dark and morally gray chaos, and rich female leads. Exemplary gentlemen, men competing for her in a fierce love triangle, otome, one heroine with multiple love interests, adored by everyone, and men who throw themselves at her.

Not Pure Romance, Scumbag Heroines

Mary Sue stories about trashy women. At least one woman with two men, often a player, a heartbreaker, a flirt, or a villainess who toys with people’s feelings. Male-lead fans, beware. This is too much.

Great Older-Woman, Younger-Man BG Stories

Male-Lead Fans, Stories That Torture the Men

I love strong female leads, and I love weak ones too. I'll accept any kind of female protagonist. No trashy womanizers who lack basic decency. I love watching men tear each other apart, though pure romance is fine too.
