It is......interesting. It's very frank about its subject matter, and I liken it to "staring into the sewer of the human psyche, but under the pretext that it's performance art".First if all funny seeing u quote 2 if my comments xD.

Idc about spoilers so what exactly mean by deviancy and disturbing? Like wtf are his fetishes that u would discribe it as disturbing?It is......interesting.

The themes are heavy around sexual deviancy and the nature of taboo and societal norms, with the focus being how the MC relates to his community as a man.
It's uncomfortable, but in a way that makes you want to keep reading, and it kind of revels in the disturbing themes it raises, but it doesn't glorify them.
I personally like it, but I mostly treat it like literary voyeurism into the mind of a broken individual struggling with his higher and baser selves. It's absolutely not something I would recommend to anyone I know IRL who I don't trust with helping me bury a body.

Thank u so much cuz the fetishes are alot more tame than I would have expected. So maybe I'll give it a tryat one point the ML raids the company bathroom trash can, stealing the FL's used period pads and taking them home to masturbate with them. Eventually she notices that they're missing from the trash can, sets up a hidden camera pointing at the trash can, and catches him. He also regularly consumes rape porn because of his twisted relationship with women.
None of this is glorified though, and even the ML talks about how much he disgusts himself.
Mostly though the art is unsettling but weirdly beautiful, and the internal monologues and narration are super compelling in terms of painting the picture of a man who has been conditioned to hate who he is, by virtue of what he is, and how he grapples with his base needs against the norms and expectations of society.
I tend to err on the side of overcautioning with that as a general rule, yeah.Thank u so much cuz the fetishes are alot more tame than I would have expected. So maybe I'll give it a try
