The experiences of men don't need to be monolithic for works to appeal to them.
no subject
Though it is interesting that you've backed down from your original claims of misogyny in the text to simply "not progressive". I'll take it, frankly; given the tone of the discussion I think it highly unlikely that you'll admit error at this point, even though I've found a number of those.
You appealed to a "'male' experience"; this is by definition a gender essentialism. Not to mention GRRM has stated outright he writes for both sexes, from a feminist slant, and that these passages appeal to my experience as a female as well. You're just wrong on this one, comrade. And more than a little anti-feminist. Much more than I would have expected from your earlier claims. It does explain the belittling and flippant disregard for his female characters, though.
no subject
You should scroll up and find those for me.
no subject
The story doesn't need to be misogynistic itself to uphold misogynistic conventions. It contains a huge, glaring, complex subject, and fails to speak interestingly on that subject.
Well, that was easy.
Admittedly your accusations of misogyny in the text refer to the "world" and not the "story" but they are nevertheless there.
But I see we're at the point in the conversation where you leap desperately on whatever single sentence might give you any foothold back into the discussion. Better luck with the next one; this one didn't pan out for you.
no subject
Better luck.
no subject
Is "those are not the exact words I used, so there, even if the meaning is identical" really all you've got? Even in the face of flagrant gender essentialism and factual errors about the books your criticizing? Really?
