    Harem--one sausage, lots of buns.
    rev harem--lots of sausage, one bun. Sometimes a new bun is even placed in the oven, but who knows whose dough was used to make it?

    harem is a man having bunch of woman while reverse is going backward, the man trying to reverse what he have done and try to run way from reality.

    A truly effective trap would always be considered too girly to be anything but a girl, so 'she' would still be part of the harem. : }

    And since a harem (as another poster pointed out) is merely the collection of SO's in a male dominated society. So, in a society where a single women may dominate and have multiple SO's, 'harem' is still appropriate, no 'reverse' needed. Of course, that's not the way the words are used in real life (or at least around NU), so logic can be discarded, and you can call it whatever the heck you can get away with.

    You know how a goose has that high-pitched honking sound we all know and hate? Well, when a group of geese get together and start honking tirelessly, that's when you get a gaggle of geese.

    Harem is probably the most confusing and inconsistently defined tag/genre. It can be drama with multiple love interests(love triangle/n-agon), an actual polygamy/polyandry, or even sometimes just an MC that’s surrounded by the other gender that doesn’t necessarily have to be in love or interested.

    The genre is great when done right and can add some spice and light fun to a story, but it can easily be a crutch or pitfalls for writers if done badly or without proper understanding of what makes harem good.

    There are many good harems and reverse harems. You just need to know where and how to look.

    Smh.
