I mean I'm not saying it's wrong or that people shouldn't write it or read it, I'm saying that sometimes I don't want to read it right now.

And I'm sick of people acting like I'm taking a moral stance when I just occasionally just don't want to read about hate directed at myself. When I ask for a book rec without themes of misogyny I'm tired of people acting like I want to ban misogynistic characters. I just want to have fun without being reminded of real world misogyny sometimes. If I want an escapist fantasy from the real world sometimes misogyny is what I want to escape from. If I want to read a book with misogynistic characters or themes I can pick up almost any book.
