Re: JKR actually did begin saying after book 5 that she was trying to send a message...

[lanjelin.livejournal.com]

I understand what you're saying (though I disagree with you about some of your interpretation of the HP books), but I also think that writers always send messages with what they write. It's just that it's often not a conscious message. Depicting reality is telling your audience that this is what you think reality is.

I mean, if a writer thinks of women in a certain way, they'll portray them in a certain way, sending the message "this is how women are". They're not trying to make their audience think of women in a certain way. They're simply depicting reality as they see it, saying that their view of women is the reality (argh, I'm being so redundant right now, and way too tired to edit; I'm sorry if it's impossible to make sense of).

Of course, it's not easy to see whether this is the case; unless the creator/s actually tells us what they tried to portray, we can't know for sure. Not to mention that they might fail.

This!

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest is a great book. It's also intensely misogynistic. Did Ken Kesey mean to send a message about how horrible women are oppressing all the menz and are only acceptable as happy hookers? Maybe, maybe not, but regardless, it's still a very ugly part of the book and tarnishes my enjoyment, and I have every right to be frustrated if people ignore that aspect of it because they think the good parts make it above reproach.

As for whether or not Twilight is sending messages...haven't read the books, can't say for sure, but I found this (http://stoney321.livejournal.com/317176.html) both hilarious and terrifying.

Yeah, I've seen that before, and, er, it's pretty spot-on. ^^;

Since Smeyer wanted to write a perfect love story, Twilight describes what she thinks that is. And it is creepy and laughable at the same time...
