POTENTIAL MONTHLY MEME SCHEDULE

10th~ of each month: Forbidden Love ("what you can't have" seems to be the most overarching and inclusive of all these memes)
20th of each month: Hurt/Comfort (gen + shipping)

Anything else? This is a work in progress, so leave thoughts in the comments below.

Also:

Memes that should go monthly? Bi-monthly?

but why can't a mean be stupid and problematic? romance in that vein sells well because people like it. rpers love it, too.

You are missing my main point, which isn't that "heteronormative" memes are the problem, which I only used to be a sassy example. The problem isn't that the trope itself is problematic or even unfun - I have played it out many times, in many variations. My problem is that it's the SAME meme, posted over and over, with a different name and artsy gif for it.na different example: Once a week would be fine, but when the utterly smitten meme is posted a few hours after the eager to please meme which was posed right after the ~sensuality meme is when I start to see a sea of boring, overplayed beige.

OR, because like I said, this is a problem with all the different shipping memes:

We don't need the romantic tropes meme and the gentle loving smut meme right after each other when the SCHMOOP meme is literally four posts below it. This shit is all over bakerstreet.

what does the sensuality meme have to do with those other ones
