No ideas are being challenged by these low-brow smut books, come on, it’s just literary porn. Sometimes considering heretical thoughts are the path to enlightenment, but this isn’t relevant when discussing porn, lol. The difference between these books is whether it allows for people to fantasize about unhealthy, morally questionable kinks and maybe even normalizes the things I talked about in the previous post, or not, that’s it. And yes, there’s a limit to everything, I also oppose positively framing pointless non-sexual violence, or just having it in for pleasure/titillation, ofc, who wouldn’t?
