Honestly, I didn’t like the books that much either. I’m sick of casual rape. I’m sick of the most interesting thing about women’s characters being their bodies and being there for the men to have sex with them. I hated the way the series ended and thought it was a massive cope out.

I enjoyed the third Witcher game, and that’s pretty much the only thing about the franchise I like apart from the horse. I like horses.

I thought the show was mostly boring and far too interested in sex. The second season was nonsense, I’m not planning on watching the third, and good on Cavil for sticking to his guns and leaving when he sees a project he’s invested in go off the rails. I hope Superman works out for him.

Right. I don’t get the obsession of adding in so much casual rape and misogyny in fantasy books. Like you can add whatever you want! It’s fantasy! You can make the world how you choose and yet you continue to throw in a bunch of SA towards mainly women. Like…why? What does it bring to the story? Nothing. It’s the same with SJM all her villains are sexual predators (at least in ACOTAR)

Thanks for the warning, I’ll make sure not to read that series either.
