First of all, hi! I was reading Blanco on spnkink_meme and decided to check out your profile and boy am I interested in this topic! I have to apologise in advance if this turns out too long or kind of ramble -y (is this even a word
( ... )
That being said, if you see the fics I’ve saved on my delicious, all the bottom!Dean/Jensen (yes, they do exist haha) are pwps. It’s kinda sad but I really don’t seem to be able to read a long chaptered fic with real plot and character development if it’s bottom!Jensen/Dean. They can be hot, because come on! it’s porn we’re talking about, but when characterisation comes into focus I just can’t do it.
God…I hope I didn’t bore you to death! I’d really love to hear more of your thoughts on this :D

No I am glad at least someone is reading. I think it's a very interesting concept to explore on whatever side of the fence that you're on because it's kind of the same side in a way. We all have the same feelings about it. Just expressed in the opposite direction. We are very attached to our tops! Lol and I just want to figure out why and it seems to be so very personal in nature to the point where we have a very strong preference and don't really enjoy wavering from it. It basically effects the enjoyment we should be getting from either way from reading about fan fiction all in the fandom should be able to enjoy

when I saw that even when Sam was topping, Dean was still the big brother I think that is another interesting point you made. At some point there is a switch and I think it really is tied to what you read and experience first in this fandom taking root in your subconscious. I do see that most stories where Dean!tops it usually expresses the traits of Dean being older, stronger, world weary and experienced to the point where Sam is often younger, naive, softer, and weaker in stories and he needs Dean to help him.
Conversely I often see in top!Sam stories Dean is usually broken, emotionally scarred, hungry for affection and love and is desperately in need of his family in his co-dependency and Sam is looked at as being more capable, holding his own weight and often very controlling and directive.
These tropes seem to stick and hold within us very strongly and it may just come down to preference and why one version: Broken!Dean or Broken!Sam pushes us more in one direction then it does another.
