He dropped it because of the gender???
It's def misogyny, because this story is a banger despite the mc being a girl.
This one is out of the stereotypical girl mc.
Tbh most story (Action genre) with girl mc is bad and i rarely see good once's.
I have nothing against girls (i am one!) it's just how they're portrayed in the story just sucks sometimes.
Pls recommend me some good fmc (Action genre) that has a good character build. And the mc actually being selfish and stuff (Not saying she's evil) but not too righteous but has good moral (Do you get me?) Ye.

i recommended this to a friend, and he thought the main character was a man. once he found out she wasnt, he dropped it immediately. this is just a thought, but i feel like people who exclusively read stories with a man as the main character are either misogynistic or dont enjoy reading stories where they dont feel as much immersion.
