@Garadox That was kind of straying into a different topic since the other poster was consistently denying that there are no problems with those kinds of relationships. I personally don't care if people want to do that sort of thing, it's their business how they live their own lives, but I wanted...

@Dredcor the one I referenced was entitled "The National Survey of Families and Households" in 2011, and there is another onr that I know of from 2019 called "Life Course, Generstion and Gender," though I'm less knowledgeable about their pedigree given it's Norweigan. Now, one could cite a...

@gcodori Same sex couples are a vast minority of the population and typically don't have any children to take care of by virtue of being unable to produce them with their chosen partners. They are an atypical type of relationship which tends to be ignored by any discussion about gender roles...

@Oculunus Nice to know that "conservative views" are synonymous with "wrong" in your mind. It lets me know who I don't need to argue with.

@Dredcor You were the one who told me I was wrong when I said these were ancient ideas thay have been with us forever, and now that I've posted piles of famous historical works you are now asking me to prove that they have psychological relevance. I'm sorry, but all I can give you are the heaps...

@Dredcor Have you never read the Epic of Gilgamesh? Or the old tales of King Arthur? Or the old Greek epics? Or the Roman philosophies? They explore the concept of manhood and masculinity very often, and while certain things change here and there the core remains the same: men must provide and...

@Dredcor It is the role of the wife to take care of the family and the hearth, it is the role of the husband to provide for the family. It has been this way since time immemorial, and when you try to play with this and mould it to shape your sensibilities families break apart and people start...

@Dredcor Bullshit, you can't just override the very concept of manhood which has stood for thousands of years right back to the earliest days of ancient Sumeria up until now with some modern mumbo jumbo about #Equality. House husbands are essentially not viewed as men and that's typically the...

In order for me to really be invested, I need to know the stakes. How many men are on either side, what are their strengths and weaknesses, what does each side know, how do they know what they know, who are they, things like that. I know basically none of that, and all I know right now is that...

The new version of chapter 20 actually includes the entire chapter. @GantzLord it appears the previous scanlator got pissed that somebody else decided to fix his mistakes in the current chapter and decided to fuck off. That said, DeadlySins did a horrible translation that I think betrays the...

Ah, I now understand the things that happened in this chapter. I also understand that there is more to the chapter than the previous translator included.

All these mongs in the comment section, jesus. No, you don't "ask permission." You take context clues. Asking permission is the biggest turn off I can possibly think of, it ruins the mood and just makes the other person think you're a pathetic virgin. So no, MMC doesn't need to ask, he should...

@hevfglbb Just like in real life, adopted children do not replace your dead children. However, the characters in these kinds of stories are often just evil for evil's sake, probably because most writers are complete hacks if I'm honest.

I really hope we don't have a "misunderstanding" arc where Aaron thinks Violet was going to sleep with him. It would be incredibly annoying and I probably couldn't put up with both being annoyed at the story and the art at the same tine, especially when the characters seem pretty one dimensional...

@Tamerlane I categorically reject the notion that he is obligated to fuck them just because they can't have kids with most people. Even if he's the only person in the world, if he doesn't want to do it, it's not his problem. I especially don't like how they're saying "Nobody will like you except...

@Tamerlane I don't like the idea of being obligated to father tons of children with women your parents arranged for you regardless of your feelings on the matter, and I don't find accepting that obligation to be at all "coming of age" or anything halfway decent. In fact, I don't find this to be...

I don't really like how this is panning out. He's essentially being groomed by his father, the village, and all the girls to be somebody he never wanted to be and do something he never wanted to do and now that it's affecting him and he's talking about how this is affecting him and how he...

You're gonna have to give me more than this to keep me interested. I don't know who this person is or what new predicament she finds herself in, you've basically just released a chapter with a single person and no plot or character development. Authors need to stop pulling this shit.

this author is lazy af. He literally just put a pink filter in the background, drew FMC in a maid outfit, then copy pasted the MMC from the last chapter and drew a new mouth. Put some damn effort in, man.

This makes no sense. If there are no monsters and there is no farming, what is the royal army eating? The tyrant shouldn't be able to behave the way he has because his army would have turned on him or just collapsed.
