Has BookTok been a benefit or a detriment to the literary community?
>>24729137God, I hate women
>>24729137Is her friend gay
>>24729137Context/Story?
>>24729137A detriment. BookTok allowed normies -- readers and would-be authors alike -- to flood the hobby, especially in the science fiction and fantasy genre.
>>24729137upon the citadel I see the mob rejoicing over their scraps
>>24729137NIGGERS making threads about unrelated social media sites has been a detriment to 4chan
>>24729276Male models at a dark romance convention (gigacoomer femoids) were harassed by attendees.
>>24729137I guess she doesn't realise that these conventions are essentially pornhub meetups for women except women feel far more able to just cross boundaries even more because they don't get punched in the face.
>>24729137So if one wants women to throw themselves at them you first have to, write a smut book and publish it. Then, spraypaint your chest black for some reason, and finally attend a book-signing and you will literally have women fondling your dick in public. (Warning: these women are most likely ugly/fat and usually both)
>>24729137Remember this when women try to tell you that only men have animalistic sexual desires. Male horny is nothing compared to female horny.
>>24729137I’d say a clear detriment. Whores should stick to literal porn instead of ruining literature. I wish it when mid and average women were writing literature, like Georg Eliot or Jane Austen
>>24729137Women are literally pajeet tier horny, holy shit.
>>24730069Only for chads, not a finger would touch you
>>24730089It's always funny when some other unfuckable dork posts this like an epic gotcha
>>24730012>Remember this when women try to tell you that only men have animalistic sexual desires.It's constant self-reporting. Like 99% of their thoughts are >muh pussy
>>24729137what do you mean? i thought more freedoms=good?
>>24729914>booth babes are back except now they're at /lit/ conventions???
>>24729137>to the literary communityDepends on what you mean by that. Genrefags, poetryfags, litficfags, classicfags, VNfags, LNfags, philosophyfags, selfhelpfags, popscifags, confessionfags, etc.They are very compartmentalized.The LNfag ain't gonna read anything besides his preferred kind of slop.Booktokfags exist but who the fuck knows what they read (except for the booktokfags themselves)?The publishers who publish that stuff only do that, they are known only by the Booktokfags and they will never pose any risk of incorporating the average /lit/ stuff: here in Italy, when Mondadori decided to enter the Booktok market, they created a subsidiary known as Sperling & Kupfer, because no teenage horny girl will slog through the Mondadori website trying to find her kind of slop. And anyone who was (let's say) an Einaudi fag, or an Adelphi fag, doesn't even know what is Sperling&Kupfer is (and the same goes the opposite way).BookTok only does good for the whole market, actually. These bitches be reading slop, but in there you can find one or two litfics, maybe even a classic. Not enough to make them full on litficfags or classicfags, but enough to, if they grow out of the booktok phase, they'll know where to look for. It's stuff for teenage girls after all, it's not necessary for them to prove themselves mature (yet).Last but not least>The author who has to put this in her book after Amazon decided to delist it has weird fansMarvelous. What's next? "Mein Kampf fan burns mosque and kills some Jews"?Paint me surprised and tickle my left ball while you are at it.
>>24729848>flood the hobby, especially in the science fiction and fantasy genre.nothing of value lost then. Real literature is fortunately gatekept by intelligence Things like Moby Dick naturally repel the tiktok-brained subhumans
>>24730069>>24729137Think about the type of adult woman who reads these books. She's in her mid 20s to early 40s, most likely somewhere in her late 20s/early 30s. She's very liberal and she's surrounded by scraggly nu-male libcucks. She's insatiably horny all the time. She wants to be railed. To be fucked hard like an object or an animal. But she's surrounded by limpwristed betas who triple-check for consent before brushing the back of her hand with their fingertips. The men she desires -- muscly, rough, strong, brash, impudent -- she hates, because they're all trumptards of various types, or just flat retarded period, so she fantasizes and fantasizes and fantasizes about them but she would never actually do anything with them. What she wants -- what she NEEDS -- is a masculine man who knows better than to spew retarded political faggotry at her. She'd do anything that man asked her to do. If you're on /lit/, lift, and know better than to screech /pol/ memewords in every conversation, you will be utterly DROWNING in libfem YA-adult pussy. They will quite literally BEG you to abduct them for your fuckdungeon. "Eww I don't want that eww" Just don't pay attention to the fatties and you're golden
>>24729137Don't forget the 2nd postThere was also a group of ladies that brought strap-ons ad dildos, showing it off / rubbing it to strangers and then sucking on it in the lobby. Apparently they thought it was funny to preface these interactions by saying:>"Hey can I show you something real quick?"
>>24730179the natural consequence of gassing themselves up for decades
>>24729137>>24730179Why does female sexuality, left unchecked, becomes indistinguishable from male homosexuality?Does it prove that gays are actually fembrained from birth?
>>24730196The article that I got this from (I'm the second anon) actually indirectly answers that questionIt's the cultural trend of conflating "minority liberation" and "getting away with the worst that dominant cultures can offer." In this case, being sex pests seems like freedom for some people who identify with restricted communities. The article also goes over a short but interesting sidenote about the trend of "making exceptions" to rationalize all kinds of behaviorshttps://smartbitchestrashybooks.com/2025/08/sinners-stardust-sexual-assault/
