>Because people here can see through the convention politics, being unrelated to them, and can recognize her for the shit-tier misery-tourist fujoshit that she is.
>All those books are about is misery, failed relationships and abusing male relations by faggots, which are portrayed as being morally right for doing it.
As someone who was a big fan of Robin Hobb in my teenage years, I don't think I would have liked her books as much as an adult. I'm a sucker for tortured and miserable protagonists, but the way relationships were handled in the book were always weird to me, just like in Earthsea. Women just write people differently, that's a fact. I don't think Fool/Bastard stuff was off-putting, but I was surprised when reading it. Now, looking back at the story, it's clear that if Hobb was born in our age she'd write fujo fanfics and shit.

Nothing weird about it, though. Artists are always weird. You must be a bit insane to autistically spend hunderds of hours on creating fictional words about exaggerated human experiences, mostly as a vessel of writing about your interests or fetishes.
