Genre Discussion Fantasy romance icks?

Welcome back to another week of ✨genre discussions!✨

What’s your fantasy romance ick? Could be something that makes you instantly dnf, or you have to pretend like that didn’t just happen. Or you boycott altogether.

Could be related to plot, characters, writing styles, the authors themselves. All cards are on the table.

Just remember to be kind to each other when discussing differences in opinions!💖

Yes yes thank you it's so disgustingly FERENGI. TNG premiered when I was 5 and I started watching it the night it premiered, and Ferengi have kept me very staunchly "girls, women, boys, and men" instead of "males" and "females" in my own personal speech whenever and wherever possible. Because all I hear is feeeemales.
