Okay so my mom and several of her friends have been shating this link on facebook

https://themattwalshblog.com/2014/07/25/women-america-4-reasons-hate-50-shades-grey/

There are a few reasons not to like 50 shades and those listed in.the article are bogus.

Here are some.things in the article that bugged me,

This mentality that there is something wrong with having a sexual interest in bdsm.

The statement how if your a femminist you should be appalled by the idea of a man physically dominating a female(whom in the novel is a consenting 24/25 year old)

Heres four real reasons not to like 50 shades
1) its origins were a twilight fanfiction and the book felt like it and the trailer felt like it

2) its not even good bdsm its like the author walkes through spencers picked out some toys and then googled porn about how to use them.

3) the writing style is poor

4) it felt like childish literary erotica.

    Never read them. The hype was a turn off. Plus i can't even make it through the sex scenes in books anymore. Too boring. I have to skip forward.

    I couldnt even get through the first book, but to say all women should be offended by these books is an over statement

    I refuse to read anything on the Matt Walsh blog. Seriously.

    Anyway, I went out of my way to not read 50 shades. When people build up hype for anything, I usually end up hating it. So I avoid lots of things. Like breaking bad. When I finally sat down to watch it, I couldn't get past the first 20min of the first episode. Because it was just awful.

    I read a small part of what he wrote and I would pay to go to the theater, buy a ticket for 50 shades, and then go home just to spite that motherfucker Matt Walsh. Because fuck that guy. For real.

    I said I was going to read it simply to see what all of the hype was about but I knew that it was based from Twilight fan fiction and that turned me off right away. My best friend LOVED IT but I told about some other authors I had read that would probably make 50 shades look like a Dr. Seuss book...

    It is amazing that even in 2014 that women arent allowed to be sexually beings and that we have to keep our needs and desires under wraps. If a grown azz woman wants to be tied up and spanked by the guy she is with and they are safe, so be it! And everything aint for everybody...

    Ok, so I admit I've read the books!
    The hype hooked me and I had to see what it was all about. Not completely horrible, but if you've read any erotica, they were pretty bland. Not something to get my feminist knickers in a knot.

    Im in the bdsm community and mostly 50 shades is considered bland for us. The only thing positive about it is that it has given people a glimpse into pain play in a safe way

    @Becwheat i think youve hit the nail on the head. 50 shades isnt trying to be great literature, its goal was to make women horny and to sell. Annnnnd it did just that.

    The feminist in me feels squicky about FSOG. Damn you, Ana, stand up and assert yourself!

    I did read them and took them at face value as erotica. And I will see the movies. Yum, yum, Jamie Dornan.

    And fuck Matt Walsh. That guy is the biggest, most self-important goober to ever take up real estate on the web.
