What are people crying wolf about, exactly? Abusive relationships happen, they look almost exactly like what's portrayed in the books, and a lot of women are told that they can end abuse by being submissive enough (there's a popular marriage manual in the fundamentalist Christian community that gives that exact message). This...actually is a real problem. The books didn't create it, but they do reflect it.

It's true that fiction is not reality, and people have kinks that they know they should never actually experience. With 50 Shades, I think what people worry about is the reinforcement of a harmful message that already exists.

The problem is that these books and all books of this kind are not affiliated with fundamentalist communities of any sort and are not telling you a message. That's not their purpose. They're telling you a story to let you dream and to entertain. If you want to see a personal moral message in it, that is your choice, but please do not project your own personal meanings and delusions on me.

This is a common plague to all entertainment media, by the way. Stop looking purposely for education exclusively in your entertainment and stop blaming entertainment when it does its purpose instead acting like your parent/textbook/guide/schoolteacher for you. YOU are the problem if you're doing this.

Feels good living where there are no fundamentalist christians. Why do americans think they're the only ones in the world and everyone is as retarded as them? Stop getting in the way of my smut already.

God forbid a woman has her own idea of what's acceptable for her and her creations that doesn't fit with yours, eh?
