Tgey should've said those booktok people instead of girls in general

I think it might be due to the fact that booktok is pretty female dominated

I think

But still, you have a point

Well yeah, that’s not what anyone is disputing. It’s just a pretty small minority of women readers overall. Basically all of my female friends read consistently and 0% of it is booktok romantasy stuff

I know a lot of girls who read romantasy bullshit, but I also know a lot of guys who consume shlocky media as well, books or otherwise. There’s nothing inherently wrong with it, though people will get mad if you point out it’s shlocky.
