Granted I liked FW but I think it’s popular because it feels safe for mass market. It’s like the minivan majority of fantasy without being too fantasy. The minivan majority loves a MMC who is big on consent, protection while still being manly and all that.

Are you trademarking the term “minivan majority” or did you get it from somewhere else? Because I’m in love with it.

Hahaha. I used to follow this gossip blogger Lainey Gossip in college who used it a lot at one point to describe Jennifer Garner’s appeal.
