I am looking for a book similar to The Lazy Aristocrat. No harem, a loving husband/fiancee. Found out that in the novel the main guy has 20 plus wives. (Shouldn't have read the spoiler.) I was rooting for a single relationship. The guys a liar saying he had eyes only for Karin.
I can't say much for the first part where African American part but as a native American, Navajo and Pima. It doesn't seem disrespectful at all.
But this is my perspective, when he said I'm your slave. I'm sure it was mean in a mocking or sarcastic way as most natives around me would be taking the piss and mocking the hell out of the new owner. But it would be hard to tell since it got canceled.
My first time reading Jaxx's stuff or maybe not, I don't really memorize authors names, but the way he drew the native American surprised me a lot. I was expecting more... Stereotype as I know in Asian culture and most people are still stuck on the very much older vision of native American tribes. Especially during the civil war.
Anyways, wish I could've seen more than one chapter to judge fair on Jaxx's direction of this.
Again, this is my perspective. Around people in my tribe how I think they would've reacted. Maybe other tribes would react differently. But anyways, the drawings were great. Needs more cactus.
I wanted to see others perspective so I checked the other comments... I don't think I should have looked. Damn.
the 1st time you've ever commented on website to let everyone know you are native american and you support your people being portrayed as this for fictional gay sex YOU CANT MAKE THIS UP
Sorry, but I never said I support it. I was simply curious on how the story would've progressed and how much research the author did.
And I'm sure I'm desensitized to the sexualization of my people as many are but the younger generation might be more vocal and resistance to this. Maybe that's it?
Though I can understand how it is off putting to those outside of my ethnic group or maybe some may see where I'm coming from as many minorities and other race are sexualized.
Like I said, a matter of perspective. It is a problem that I am desensitized to the sexualization part and it is unfortunate.
Also, it's not like there aren't gay, lesbian, or queer native Americans. I'm not sure I understand your part in saying this.
Or maybe your baiting me? If so, then I guess you succeeded? You're probably not gonna bother reading this though. Goodnight!
I did read your entire comment, I'm part native american, there's enough media out there that pairs us to the white savior. A story like this from a Korean who's so far removed from our culture and history wouldn't honestly know how to approach this topic with nuance. Just look how she's already made the black people faceless characters and insinuating that they can just go back to their families now that they're free, its already off to a bad start considering that was literally not possible thanks to the slave trade
Ahh, understandable. Thank you for explaining. I'm used to seeing authors as faceless in a sense. This could be the reason why I didn't put it in my head that this author is from an entire different part of the word.
Looking back, I do see how it is bad after getting your fact on the black character in the background. I'm a history nerd so I saw this differently and hadn't realized that this was infact problematic.
The white savoir is completely played out and I agree with that but I must've gotten too used to seeing that that I seemed ignorant and dense but also supportive.
Again, thank you for telling your perspective and opening my eyes to this is not a good way to express native American and African Americans. I totally understand now.
Of course and I'm sorry about how I came off initially sometimes i get sensitive about these topics
