The Communist Manifesto? Is that a video game?
Leon Trotsky? What’s his Twitter handle?
Antonio Gramsci? Did he invent Instagram?

ah, but it drops down to single digits when you stop counting the movie marathons
they saw “young adult” and thought they had to be 18 to read it
Given how much cringe YA novels are generally packed with, I’d say that’s a rare good call on their part.
the real good call would be avoiding it entirely. but yeah, i prob could have done without reading A Song of Ice and Fire at 14 with all of the weird sex pest shit GRRM wrote in
Off topic: The term “sex pest” refers to someone who pesters for sex, i.e. persistently asks or makes advances even if the other person said they aren’t interested or are specifically averse to this person. It’s a form of badgering that is functionally aimed at wearing someone down until they consent despite not wanting to because they feel pressured or are sick of dealing with this person putting them in that position but don’t have a way to shut them out. It’s a specific group of abusive behaviors.
A violent rapist is not a sex pest, and the type of marital rape seen in ASOIF is also closer to that than pestering. What ASOIF has is not sex pest shit, it is rape shit.
did not know this, thank you! i thought it was a synonym of sex predator
but yeah, the rape is disgusting, especially when considering the age of the victims. GRRM has no excuse

I’ve seen some definitions also include SA (which is distinct from rape), but you know I guess documentation of the nuances of slang is often poor so maybe you’re correct.

That’s genius. I reasonably enjoyed the series first time round and have wanted to re-read it but I’m not sure if I want to go through all the rapey parts again.

If only the profession that was responsible for exactly that wasn’t full of so many liberals.
