It's totally understandable to have preferences and in fact if something is not within your tastes you have every right to find something else that is!
Just to provide a possible explanation, I want to say that this story is not meant to be realistic. It is meant to address some tropes I hold dear to me and to portray character in a way I personally enjoy writing. Hopefully I can provide a different kind of experience than other stories with a similar setting.
In any case, TKH has soft characters that will always be understanding and attentive to MC's comfort, so anyone who keeps reading or is interested in this game should be aware of that.
