I read an anon leaving a scalding review of Warded Man the other day (500 pages of cuckporn crownee by gangrape) only to find it has like 200k reviews and a 4.25stats on goodreads.

You see, you need to understand, Women won't read something unless it promises to provide an erotic ("spicey") experience to stimulate her insane emotional fee fees. Romantasy provides a soft 'cover' for the sex obsessed lit-erotica she's consuming like catnip by disguising the erotic purpose behind the fantasy facade.

Women obviously despise space abd science as well so it's not likely you'll find many (any) of these set in a science fiction genre

You can see on basically every page the undercurrent if every interaction between the sexes is sexualized (but only the hawt guys), which is frankly exhausting and ridiculous. In this exert from the appalling Rebecca Yarros massive bestseller the protag has barely survived a harrowing ordeal and is being saved by an old friend yet of course her first thoughts are about fucking.

If the story has any teleos its the creation of constant sexual tension which we must unfortunately assume is how women actually experience the world.

Why don't these girls just read books with graphic rape scenes like Clockwork Orange?
>>
>>24723526
It's vaugely a homosexual experience for the women as they're really partaking in the fantasy of another women.
>>
>>24723526
The teleos of clockwork orange isnt sex. You don't seem to understand that the entire book must exist solely for the purpose of the protag having sex.
>>
Indeed, nothing could be more dissapointing to a romantasy addict than starting an "erotic" novel only to discover its really about philosophical concepts or politics or something equally "boring" to the hypersocialized modern sexual women.

How over is it? Will the sex be wild? Actually, she hasn't messaged me back after trying to setup a date even though she said she'd like to go on one (common ghosting tactic).
>>
>>24722740
What's with Fantasy being so woman focused? I always look at the dustcovers of whats on display at book stores and the summaries of the fantasy stuff is always foid coded.

How do we stop the infantilisation of language
>>
>>24724082
Social media now has to be approved for toddler's because every baby has an iPhone with TikTok and TikTok can't control that babies use the app. But TikTok can moderate your language.
>>
>>24724084
I dunno, millennials latch onto media for children like no one else so they may be the root of that.
>>
>>24724088
No. It's 100% because you can't use the word sex or sexy on TikTok.
>>
>>24724170
You also can't use words like suicide, murder, or rape, which is why they use words like grape for rape or 733t speak type replacement letters.
>>
>>24723519
First person can be done well. Present tense can be done well. But first person present tense is an abomination.

These books have no intellectual or even emotional value outside of sex. I don't get the point. I mean, I do, but the pervasiveness of women claiming this is literature is alarming. The last few girls I asked for book recommendations rec'd me Sarah J. Maas and Rebecca Yarros and when I replied with incredulity they insisted the books really were really good and that I should definitely read them; which just speaks to the intelligence of these chicks.
>>
>>24724403
Do women use these as aids to jack off, or do they just watch porn like everyone else? Do they seriously think it's literature? It's a mixed bag in my experience.
>>
>>24723497
I'm surprised these women openly admit to reading porn. It used to be it was a subject no one wanted to discuss, let alone let others know they consume.

Yeah they use them as a masturbation aid.

A woman's mind should be full of the phallus.

Furthermore, it is my opinion that people should read more Lacan.

If I were to guess, it's because fantasy usually focuses on the characters whereas science fiction focuses on the environment, so it's a lot easier to adapt the former to romance when everyone gets bored of urban fantasy
>>
>>24723802

None of these women can fuck. They're into the idea of fantasizing about getting fucked and emotional high / mind games of it not the act itself. Like ED for porn addicts
>>
>>24722740

Bitches going through their YA and teen porn addict stage all in their late 20s - 40s is still funny too me

With social media? That shit limits your self-worth, ruins your soul and destroys communities worse than the television did.
