Tansy Rayner Roberts' Historically Authentic Sexism in Fantasy. Let’s Unpack That.

[james_davis_nicoll]

There was a great, thoughtful article at The Mary Sue on one of my pet topics: the common justification of sexist fantasy fiction being that it’s historically authentic.

I am BUSY today, far too busy for a rant, but then I felt one coming on, and was worried I might end up with a migraine if I tried to stifle it. You know how it is. So let’s talk about sexism in history vs. sexism in fantasy.

Thanks for the link! It is much nicer here in the empty comments!

By the way, I always read your posts here, then click over to the LJ to comment since all the comments tend to be there. But I'm glad you're on DW as it's where I do most of the reading/post discovery!
