Unless you're going to turn humans into cybermen, we will still think of sex.
I don't know what this statement is in response to. Where did I say I want anyone to stop thinking of sex? Is this a reference to my line about sex objects? There's a difference between thinking about sex and seeing women as objects whose personalities are less important than their orifices.
Honestly, man, I don't like to rag on someone for his writing style, but it's getting really hard to keep reading your posts when you won't break up posts so I can know what you're responding to.

It is demonstrably true that they do. Look up videos on Youtube.

[...]but would you really publish a book if comedians really were the target audience?
I'm very confused by this statement. Who said comedians are the target audience? Like, um, okay, take Disney movies as an example. They're targeted at kids, but they (for reasons I have forgotten but that I think have to do with people looking for subtext) attract a lot of gay viewers too.

Let alone offer her a movie deal?
Look, I think the hang-up here is that you think if the book is successful, then it must be successful for exactly the reasons its author intended it to be. I don't see how you can come to that conclusion.

I'm not saying your a sexual deviant who enjoys being a submissive in a BDSM fantasy, but they do exist.
Yes, I know they exist, but when did my sexual tastes become part of this? What are we even talking about?
Jonathan Braun said:
So you deny that many women who like Fifty Shades of Gray do so since they share a fantasy with the author, yet you deny that people just like overly sexually attractive women in gaming, because it is "hurtful."
No. I never said either of those things. I said you're going to have to prove to me that a lot of women share those fantasies, and I never even touched on the other topic, but if anything, I said the
opposite of "people don't like overly sexual women."

The reason something sells may not be the same as the reason it's made.
