I didn't know about the book "Fifty shades of grey" until tumblr started to dream about Chris Evans taking a leading part of a future film.
So, I started to dig to learn more, thinking that it's some deep story exploring dark side of sexuality, smth close to "Secretary".
With help of my friend Bri, I've found the book quotes, and started to read parts of that book.
And omg, so many awful things in one book!
I thought it was another awful interpretation of what love should be, smth close to Twilight, which I've been told after that it was, it was adapted Twilight fanfic.
So, let me explain, I'm not gonna judge what ppl read, but there are so many teen girls who think that possessiveness of a boyfriend is one of the top quality things their lover should possess. This unhealthy feeling of disappearing inside your lover and stopping to think about yourself.
Girls seek this crazy insecure relationship where you don't trust the one your love and passionately hate those who dare to stand near your lover, not realizing that it is ALWAYS brings to harming your lover in the end.
I don't want girls grow up thinking that this is an ideal relationship.
And now, this horrible, horrible book that tries to explain what is BDSM is, without knowing the nature of it. And now readers think that this is a romance?!
What the hell?! I don't want girls grow up thinking that being a sub and not discussing the rules of it, not knowing the limits of where your lover can take you, not even having a safe word, without your own consent is OKAY. It is NOT.
It is NOT love.
In a world where a rape rate gets higher every year, we have this book where the main character doesn't care what will be done to her, doesn't have a choice of what will be done to her body and it delivered as LOVE?!
IT IS NOT OKAY!
