re: Romance Novels D&D

Quoting Back to Noob Status:" No, she shouldn't. Fiction is...fiction. But there have been a couple of disturbing posts here on BG where the wife wishes the husband was more like Christian Grey. SMH."

Seriously. I keep seeing stupid things on FB about how "men wish there were a manual for women," then it shows the picture of the front of 50 shades and says "here it is!"

Really? THAT is what we are telling men they should act like?

That is equally disturbing, especially since the main character didn't like how Christian was acting. SMH.

Quoting Rumpelstiltskin:" "

I know! I found one:




So, we're telling men that the instruction manual for dealing with women is to be an emotional mess who manipulates a naive (stupid) virgin into accepting his borderline abusive behavior because she's afraid of losing him.

Or be a billionaire. That works too I guess.

How much do you want to bet this whole stupid thing wouldn't have worked out so well if he'd been broke and chaining her up to the deepfreezer his Mom keeps the thanksgiving turkey in in his "basement apartment" below his parents house.

Not so sexy now, huh?

But...but...those smoldering grey eyes! His "Adonis" body!

LMAO    


Even if he was broke, short and fat he wouldn't have been considered sexy.

It was a shallow ass relationship!

Quoting Rumpelstiltskin:"   I know, and before everyone said how romantic Edward was for basically stalking Bella. "

Well doesn't every woman include a man breaking into her house to watch her sleep and disabling her car so she can't visit friends he doesn't like in her "must have" list of attractive male attributes?

I mean. THINK of the BG post.

I woke up last night and found out that this guy I've sort of liked has been breaking into my room through my window to watch me sleep. Then, I tried to go see my friend and he took the spark plugs out of my car! He just really REALLY loves me a lot, right?

OMG that would be horrible... people are weird.

Those eyes! The make her feel funny "down there." All this sexy behavior is so attractive to her "inner goddess."

If you can't say vagina maybe you shouldn't let people put things into it.

And don't get me started on that inner goddess. Goddamn.

OMG I'm dying! hahahhaha

Seriously.
Sigh.

If my husband came at me like that then we would have a serious problem, but if my husband kindly, and respectfully shared his concerns then I would happily stop reading something that upset my husband.

Fantasies are fantasies for a reason. I think romance novels are absolute smurf, honestly, but I'm the only person in control of what I want my mind to be stimulated with. If I want to read them, then smurf anyone that says I can't.
