Reply to comment by NeoSeth in Does Don Winslow introduce endless female characters just to write explicitly about their bodies and sex lives? by hammnbubbly

Any time they claim historical accuracy I roll my eyes and ask them if they're willing to describe women with actually body hair (and not just arm pits).

You want to claim historical accuracy for your r*pe fantasies then you gotta claim the fact that hairless women were not historically accurate either.

I think about that a lot, actually. This is close to another soapbox of mine, but I'll be brief and just say I believe people make a lot of excuses to justify fulfilling their sexual fantasies in their art.

This just made me reimagine a lot of history scenes as various versions of Cousin It playing everyone.
