The gray man stopped a few feet from us. Gold eyes narrowed as he looked us over. His face looked relatively human.
so fucking annoying that she's gendering this literal alien right off the bat, when she has very obvious evidence that this being isn't human. that just throws me out of the story entirely. this is an alien and/or fantastical being! i don't buy your pov as a scientist/biologist if you're just automatically gendering a literal entire new species to you right off the bat, based off no evidence and no indication this person's culture even has genders. at least go with a gender neutral assumption!
okay, listen, i do understand the genre this book is. i do. it's an explicitly breezy, dumb romance, not scifi. but like. come on.
The large man approaching us was definitely a Sankado, but it sure as hell wasn’t Sol.
again with the automatic assumption of gender. literally why. how fucking terminally straight is this book. this is such an enormous failure of imagination.
As the smoke cleared, a small hatch on the craft opened, and a tiny, electric-blue-colored Owlish emerged. He stood no taller than a foot, his large lime-green eyes blinking rapidly as they adjusted to sunlight.
WHY IS IT GENDERED. WHY IS THIS RANDO ALIEN A HE. THIS IS DRIVING ME INSANE. girl, please. use it, use they, but there is literally no reason given for all this gendering, and it makes me think so much less of this pov character as a scientist.
I squeezed my thighs together, trying to ignore my purring pussy.
no. just no. bad metaphor. if your vagina is purring, that is a problem.
When the last of her pink form
oh of course. of course the lady t-rex is pink. what the fuck is with the gendering in this book.
“Oh Mylanta,” I said, giggling. “Those idiots didn’t take out my implant. I can’t get pregnant!”
bold fucking assumption to make when aliens are involved. lady, why are you so fucking dumb.
“Please, Stardust, I need to knot you.”
NO!!! I DID NOT SIGN UP FOR THIS A/B/O NONSENSE!!! >>>>>:(
Like on a wolf? I had so many questions. I thought they might have descended from herbivores because of the hooves; why would a herbivore evolve a knot? Were they canids?
oh, NOW we're asking sensible biologist questions, and not when you were making gender and biology assumptions willy nilly???
