Smutty book is always a good time 😂 but its a fantasy if youre expe timg that irl then thats an immature and unrealistic expectation, at most it can be used for ideas

It's the same as rom-coms, they give an impression that there is one way to fall in love, but it is misguided. As a young person, it can definitely throw you for a loop but at my age (late thirties), I know better and these types of movies/books are just for fun :)

If people have lost the art of critical thinking. If women can't watch something or read something without believing it to be true, then we're screwed.
