Here's the female version of this coomer schlock. Who the fuck reads this shit? Who the fuck buys this shit? Why the fuck is there so much of it?

I go on a pirate site and 9/10 of the books are this fucking shit. How the fuck many books about tittyelves and duke bodice-rippers does humanity really god damned need?

Who the fuck is reading this shit and why is there so fucking much of it?

Put in any keyword like "sword" "mage" "kingdom" and there are 100,000 results. How many fucking books do we need about neckbeard self insertion fantasies? Don't you fucking faggots get bored of reading the same rehashed dogshit over and over again?

There must be tens of thousands of nearly identical books just like this. Any niche, tens of thousands of coom rags. One coomer can only buy so many coomrags. Is there a coom rag factory spitting this out with AI and jpajeet labor?

I once bought something similar at an airport as an ebook when I was bored, out of curiosity. The writing wasn't great but it was sort of sexy. I didn't coom to it (I was in public), but it was fun. Probably wouldn't do it again, once is enough.

I disagree. most of those are somewhat wholesome. the western shit is just hardcore coomerist.

Well if we go by the rule that maybe 10% of people who read a book review it, that means... maybe 30,000 readers, or so?

I would read just about anything if it’s good.

But to answer your question, the same thing that draws people into fantasy broadly draws them into this. It’s fictional escape.

Or at this point just use gpt-3 to generate massive ammount of volume and rewrite to neckbeards standards (so you might have to limit the quality of your writing).
Do that a hundred times, every few ooks under a different authot name, flood the market and make all of them neetbucks.
