Never mind, quitting web novels for reals

So uh. Did I say I recommend reading 《成化十四年》? Fuck that noise.

The last thing a mystery story should be doing is making me hate the political ideology of the main detective. Blaming the woman for resorting to murdering her husband so she can get out of an abusive relationship because she has no other options...wow. WOW.

This novel was written by a woman!

I'm like...feeling so nauseated. Ugh.

I mean, historically speaking, Ming Dynasty was the era that mass popularized footbinding and gave rise to the whole 贞节牌坊 thing. So unless the character is a transmigrator from the modern era, having a misogynist attitude is understandable...
