"Was your book about a dominatrix, or healthy women with wimpy men?" It was set on a world where only women lived. For three hundred years, their legends and fables told them that "men" were vicious, dangerous entities not to be trusted in a civilized society.
They had been manipulated by the power structure which produced only female children.
The women of this world were confident and capable. They had been doing everything necessary to survive in this place ever since the colony ship dropped them there.
Someone made the mistake of thinking that a "kinder, gentler" male servant could be devised, which would serve a number of their needs. Scientifically, of course, they were otherwise quite advanced.
And so, the "Reintroduction Of Males Program", R.O.M.P., was initiated.
My story picked up after that.

Actually more like appliances or furniture than house-guests.
The reintroduction of males also constitutes the reintroduction of slavery. Guess whose turn it is?

I wonder if the fact that the main male character, Christian Grey, is a BILLIONAIRE holds any allure or attraction for women???

We WILL see the collapse of our government and our economic system. However, the root cause of all of this is not political. It is spiritual. As a nation, we turned our back on God. Thus, we turned our back on goodness and Truth.

2 Chronicles 7:14
If my people, who are called by my name,
shall humble themselves,
and pray, and seek my face,
and turn from their wicked ways; ,
then will I hear from heaven,
and will forgive their sin,
and will heal their land.

And this crap (pun intended) is raking in the money.
There’s no accounting for (lack of) taste, right?
I’m writing a script for “69 Shades Of White”. Guess what it’s about?
