11 questions I wish male fantasy authors would ask themselves before publishing. : Fantasy

It's so obvious she only read secondhand critiques of them.

You know why, they're ugly and titless themselves, it's pure femcel jealousy

Women in anime is the most unrealistic because they are written by incel Japanese men that learnt everything about women from hentai made by other incel Japanese men. This is why they're such p-do coomers.

Replace them all with softboy uwu traps

To incorporate the histrionic foids and their antics from real life into fantasy

"90% of the food on your plate, 90% of the consumer goods in your house, 99% of the house itself and the road system that gets things there, 95% of all the useful inventions ever and suffering 95% of the work-related deaths and serious injuries"

Here to help.

I can fix them.

When did everything become a 'space'? It sounds fricking gay.

this unironically is why i am currently writing a book and no you r-slurs will never see it linked to me in any way on rdrama.net so dont even ask

"actually it's 3/4, for the average woman, based off what I know about your risk factors, you must have been r*ped at least 4 times!"

I don't know how anyone can realistically believe that without consider looking at someone for longer than .5 seconds r*pe. R*pe is a problem, it certainly happens more than it should but 25%? Come on now

maybe it's just my ugly copium though

Difficulty: most artists think they are rubbish at what they do until critical acclaim convinces them otherwise, talent notwithstanding

The problem with that is good writers hate themselves and hate their work. Bad writers think they're great.

This would actually be an interesting premise. Might even be able to pass it off as feminist allegory if done right. Got to remove the r*pe part though, it's too unrealistic. No way someone in a society that has fully embraced the glory of bussy would ever want to mess around with some nasty underground troll gussy.

I wanted to say I'd give your book a try when you finish it but you've spoiled the ending so

The irony would be if that passes the bechdel test

She makes it, but unfortunately there's a genital inspector working at the top of the pit and she's sent back

after getting r*ped

>She makes it

Unrealistic

edgy

a great exploration of the human condition

>be bottomless pit inspector

>disgusting peepeeless creature literally claws its way out of it

>r*pe it then kick it back down the pit

>??????

>PROFIT

It makes women seem wanted. They always have two competent men running after them and they can finally settle on one at their own leisure.

Also it's not half of them it's literally all of them. Rebecca is a gothic horror novel from the 19th century and even it does not escape this trope of two competent protective men.

Also fun fact, even in that book the more damaged but rich guy wins and keeps the girl. If you follow women's literature they have been telling you this for over two centuries now.

how much fiction for men involves the affections of 2 or more women though

AF/BB in action. Life fuel for betas tbh bc they exist in the woman’s fantasy

Answer: Each man represents a different possibility for her, by that I mean she can be a different person with each man. Even in gay fantasy the bottom(foid self insert) is often lusted after by 2 guys.

But the even more correct answer is that 99% of fantasy is easy read wish-fulfillment pulp. Look at this list, it's all about how women in fantasy are not presented with enough virtues and how bad things like r*pe shouldn't be written in because it's uncomfortable to read. This is a bastardization of the original criticism of how introducing characters only be killed/r*ped/kidnapped as motivation for the hero is lazy writing, what foids have taken this to mean is that fictional women shouldn't have bad things happen to them(or be described in certain ways) because it hurts their personal wish-fulfillment fantasy(this is the reason why women are overrepresented in fanfic communities).

>Are your female characters as complex as their male counterparts?

The male characters in bestselling fantasyshit often have the emotional depth of a kiddie pool, because they're written by dummies who only think about characters in terms of what they do. The males in the books OP is complaining about just do a bunch of cool shit and then the women just kinda sit there, but they all share a lack of emotional depth and complexity. Even when women write fantasy you just get an equalization of cool shit accomplished by the genders. YA fiction is extremely popular with women for this reason, a lot of the books now have women do cool shit as the heroes and they're very easy to read because all the characters shout their feelings at the reader as is basically text-based anime. Not saying that moids are any more intelligent, but rather that foids write complaints that look like they want higher quality writing when instead they just want their flavor of Conan.

I'd bet pretty much every women written fantasy book has an excerpt that you can post on /r/menwritingwomen if you lied about the author being a man.
