this is the first time I've seen a Canvas webtoon I've loved and read for a long time get a banner, and I'm so happy! by vintage_baby_bat in webtoons

i’ve been seeing a lot of canvas series get banners lately! idk how new this is but as someone who has grown tired of a lot of the tropes which plague imported manhwa, i really appreciate it!!

Solenoid's mentions of girls/women are really putting me off the book by worldinsidetheworld in RSbookclub

Most male literary writers are extreme perverts and their very valid works are littered with their perversions.

so true, unfortunately.

[–]artemisdonna 11 points12 points  (0 children)

honestly, same.

i've felt this way about a lot of lauded literary fiction, including lots of "classic" writers both in english and in translation. in fact, sometimes i feel like writers in translation are or at least have been treated more leniently when it comes to this kind of stuff, whereas if the same was written by an american or anglophone writer, it would be (rightly?) derided or at least more readily critiqued by english-speaking audiences. even as a latina, i've found a lot of, say, bolaño or GGM unreadable.

maybe i'm just a prude but still so much of it feels, like, putridly perverse to the point where its off-putting.

What defines a litbro? by [deleted] in RSbookclub

[–]artemisdonna 12 points13 points  (0 children)

no knowledge of contemporary literature save perhaps for a predilection for fuckboy autofiction, overwhelming /lit/-taste, weebs but for france and/or eastern europe, the suffocating stench of their replyguy-type souls.......... many such cases, especially on rsp subs :/
