UGH. The first pisses me off without, sadly, surprising me (though like Gloss says, LOL PREHISTORIC, that whole thing is so factually untrue it burns). The second is very sad-making; I'd only registered good things about the book by fandom-response osmosis. I'm pretty fucking fed-up with that narrative shortcut of kinky = evil, and it's not even only because it kicks me in the groin every time but also because it is //so fucking LAZY//. Plus, when you contrast it with the RL stories where, you know, pregnant women in kinkster circles are pretty much the only ones who GET ASKED if they're okay with getting their bellies touched - I mean, really! The people with the consensual rape role play Are Note The Fucking Rapists Okay. Just. AUGH. So fucking ugly.
Otoh, that "everyone wears leather, but the villain likes it." descriptive makes my day completely. I'm adopting it. Thank you for sharing it with us. :)
