Bammel? Sabine? Spoggly? Namaste?

queenzulu makes a compelling case for a House-AU of mine being anti-feminist here. It's very thought-provoking. Anything you'd be interested to add? I'd love to hear more analysis and opinions.

Please note that this is critical analysis of text/writing, not of me as a person. There is implication throughout the commentary about an author's responsibility for the end product of a work, which is an important idea that needs to be considered.

*tilts head* I got the impression that we, as readers, were supposed to be unsettled by a universe where the sexes were so obviously and complacently stratified. It never occurred to me to feel outraged over the secondary role of women; what made it such an interesting read was the way in which we saw Wilson ruminating on his own societal position, yet leaving so much else about his world unsaid.

That was my intent! Zulu provides a good explanation for why it doesn't turn out that way for her.

Hello! I debated whether or not to mention this to you, but ultimately I felt it was the fairest thing to do, so here goes. I quote you in the discussion post, here, and I use your words in my analysis of the reaction to Dee's story. I apologize if I dragged you into a discussion you did not wish to have; I did quote you in the spirit that you said your words in a non-locked post (and therefore public). If you do not feel like responding, I more than understand.
