>>510007081It's fucking WILD. I read a lot of books each year and like scifi, since this is weirdly considered scifi adjacent, I figured I'd give it a go last year.
I was unironically SHOCKED at many points during the book, though not because I was agreeing with the author
>who in the FUCK would write something like this??Was my main thought. At MANY points.
It's not even all female authors who do this. Ursula K. LeGuin is an annoying feminist who doesn't know shit about writing male characters but ive never read one of her books and thought anything similar. If anything Ursula wanted to LARP as gentle and kind to men. She just seemed to want feminine love in return but I digress.
Point is: ABSOLUTELY a fetish. A gross one, too.
