The Book Witch
Meg Shaffer
auduraka commented on a post from the Pagebound Club forum
Some time ago I watched a video which I don't remember what it was about but there's one thing that did stick in my mind
That point being that "teenage girls can't really have role models in fantasy stories because irl we don't have magic and thus we can't relate to witches and such"
And that type of view of fantasy (while not usually said like this) seems to be a pretty common critique of fantasy in general
And it made me wonder how much relatibility factors in enjoying stories in general.
What would you all say about this?
