>flimsy vague racism and sexism
Firstly, read the Guardian's articule that OP posted; secondly, appealing to subjective group morality: muh racism, muh sexism; this isn't an arguement; redditor, YAF makes up a huge portion of the industry, an industry that is being choked with inly ideology being pushed.

Only asking that you address Anon's points, this discussion while go nowhere.

My own two-cents on the ordeal is; 2008 credit-crunch, universities push left agenda(writers are trained), "lazy" more accessible media increasingly popular.
After 2008 the market narrowed down to the few genres that could sell sufficently; like YAF, writers of these genres are more typically left-wing compared to Fantasy or Scifi writers (this comes from their traditional sources); the real sellers come with movie tie-ins, so Hollywood(leftwing bastion that it is) has more control, thus the market is saturated with perticular Worldview and hence where >>10404404 and >>10404522 are coming from in their arguements.

Not really no, in my family the first son takes the fathers first name as his second given name.
So i can have my name like this:

Henry (father's name) (grandfather's name) (surname).
