strangers to lovers D: Not my favorite. I avoid it if I can, but it won’t necessarily put me off reading something. usually with sportsrpf i tend to enjoy canon more and strangers2lovers doesn't always work with that. but i have read a couple of really good fics with that trope, so it's not like my most behated or anything... i just feel like it sometimes doesn't capture the foundations of a pairing well

genderbend for both characters C: Neutral. A good author might be able to sell it, but a bad one will kill it deader than dead. i have read a few genderbend fics that i've really enjoyed but it has a lot to do with the writing and very little to do with the fact that it has genderbent characters. i also don't really go looking for these fics so i haven't read too many... but there is that one girlcharles chastity device wip that lives rent free in my head even now... it's so interesting and i hope the author knows how much i yearn to see where they would have taken it (it's very old so i doubt it's going to be completed).

ballet au with competing ballerinas D: Not my favorite. I avoid it if I can, but it won’t necessarily put me off reading something. i have a bone to pick with balletfic 😭 they're sometimes good but also often very bad. and i don't know if i've ever seen a good ballet fic that doesn't just treat one of the guys in the pairing as the 'woman' (for example one of them will take up the ballerina's role shsjsks) which is like. fine. but also very boring to me... male dancers have really messed up lives too so can we please think about that 🤩haven't come across any yuri ballet aus so i can't say anything about them 😣😣😣
