I do believe that youβre a misogynist if you canβt read books just because the MC is a girl π€·π½ββοΈ

When a system doesn't work for men, the system is blamed. But when a system doesn't work for women, women just have to adjust.

funniest and most absurd topics of discourse in the βboy booksβ discussion:
- harry potter is a βgirl bookβ because some girls like it
- to kill a mockingbird is romantasy because thereβs a moral lesson in it

As a teacher, I find it fascinating the way that girls outperforming boys in tests or specific subjects (like mine, literature) is so frequently attributed to the teaching or texts themselves favouring girls. People seem desperate to be reassured that boys ARE cleverer, really.
There is literally NO librarian on the face of the planet who is recommending ROMANTASY to a boy who is asking for adventure/quest/survival books.
They're recommending Percy Jackson, Artemis Fowl, Among the Hidden, Maze Runner, Ranger's Apprentice, Hunger Games, etc.

Things I have learnt today.
Boys books "don't count" as boys books if:
The lead is black.
The lead is gay.
The lead wants to be a therapist when he grows up.
The book explores a relationship between father & son (this counts as gay)
There is a girl in it.
The girl does

'Club Kid is conservative, actually'
'La Bola Negra demands we sympathize with queer fascists'
Me, immediately after falling down the stairs: βIβm fine!β
Me, the next morning: *he was not fine*
Iβm in PAAAAAAAIN. π

Some of y'all's tweets about La Bola Negra are illuminating the fact that you need literally everything spoon-fed to you.
And the lighting is NOT flattering.

there is an air of homophobia in reducing the messages of la bola negra then saying it "insists, aggressively and arrogantly, on its own monumentality." it reads like the rhetoric of queer people being "too loud" "too prominent" that i have heard from my own conservative parents
