“Frankly most of the anger toward these books is from puritanical feminists who feel every single woman, even all the fictional ones must behave like their idea of an assertive brash dominant ‘real woman’.”
False. Not sure where you made that one up but I assure you, it is grossly incorrect.
Neither my friends or myself are ‘puritanical feminists’ and we all see this ‘story’ as weak and pathetic and NOT because of how we believe real woman should behave. It has to do with common sense and dignity. Nobody gives a flip what you do in your bedroom, we do give a care that such idiotic stories like this land in the hands of very young women.
Read the book, get back to me. The author writes like a 12 year old.
Not all books are meant to be empowering tales of virtuous role models for young people just like not all foods are meant as desserts and not all vehicles are meant to drive on the beach. FSG is red meat fantasy for certain women to get horny off of. Thats its purpose, of course you wouldn’t want to bring it into an elementary school classroom or a selfesteem seminar. And you know what? With all the other things we accept...beating each other to a pulp in the ring drinking our guts out and people sawing off their private parts whats so bad about some women are allowed have their fantasies? If you want to protest against moral laxity in general fine, but FSG shouldn’t be the 1000th thing on your list to single out. Oh and don’t fool yourself, feminists are the ones leading the charge against this since they can’t stand that even one single fictitious woman doesn’t behave ‘properly’.
