I didn’t grok it.
>Muslim character is named Stinky
>female character says when rape happens, nine out of ten times it’s a woman’s fault
>homosexual men are misguided and broken
>all while the author goes on and on about love, peace, and fucking your neighbor’s wife in massive orgies
And this is by the same man who wrote Starship Troopers no less. I however did enjoy his portrayal of burgershart Christianity taken to it’s natural endpoint

Im sure there was a political moral that went in one ear and out the other when I read this. All I remember is he thinked himself a perfect body and he made every woman he met his willing slave because he lives in the present moment which makes him the greatest lover on earth. And people blast him apart with a shotgun out of jealousy. In other words it was a big wankfest for the author.

I've read 5 Heinlein novels including this one and I'm still not sure why he was revered as one of the major SF writers. The first one I read (Farnham's Freehold) was so terrible I had to read another just to check if that was an uncommon dud.

It’s basically 1960s isekai
>character goes to a strange new world full of hot women who love him, just because he’s nice and innocent
>character has epic cheat code powers and cannot be hurt
>character gets power by teaching the people of this strange new world the basic science of his old world
It goes on and on
