Mailvox: the illustrated shiv
VFM #7634 wasn't entirely sure to whom Literally Who's self-outing as... something was referring.I'm confused... is this another post about Scalzi?No, as it happens, THIS is a tremendous post about the most important author in science fiction history, the Fifth of the Big Three, the biggest, baddest, bestselling dog at Tor Books, the man with more Hugo nominations than Arthur C. Clarke or Jerry Pournelle and more Hugo Awards than Ray Bradbury, A.E. van Vogt, Lester del Rey; Gregory Benford, Norman Spinrad, Terry Pratchett and Iain M. Banks combined, the writer whose innovative "he said, he said, he said" dialogue has shocked and awed and intimidated the entire science fiction writing community.
Our case study today is John Scalzi, a quisling male emblematic of so much that has gone haywire with White American men (and their beards).People have mostly given up trying to sell the narrative, but I always found it bizarre when people tried to claim that I envied John Scalzi. On what planet, and for what reason, would a man like me ever envy a gamma male like that?
Exhibit A: This is Scalzi’s Christmas card. He signed off on it. He approved of it. This is how he wants the world to see him.
Exhibit B: Scalzi in love. Here Scalzi is in the submissive position, an obvious inferior looking up to his wifely better.
Exhibit C: Scalzi smooches. Kissing upward and nuzzling his doughy face into hard manjawline, eyes closed as his hunky lady peers into the middle distance looking burdened with the weight of the world (or for an escape from her husband’s octopus lips), Scalzi eagerly inverts the sexual polarity, taking on the role of the woman in his marriage, ceding all the T to his wife.
Exhibit D: Serious Scalzi. Scalzi tries to look serious (ie like a normal man), but is still out-mugged by his wife, who looks more serious, and tougher, than him.
The most interesting thing about Scalzi is the fact that he somehow managed to delay the inevitable gamma self-implosion until he reached a much higher level of success than is normally the case. Which means that his implosion, when it comes, is going to be absolutely spectacular.
The best part of the Chateau post is the comments from the women there.
- What I really despise about this guy is that he’s contributing to the further ruin of science fiction. So why do these mannish women latch on to these beta guys? Seeing stuff like this out of a man makes me hurt inside. It’s instinctive, like being scared of rattlesnakes. How do women kill them in themselves, and why would they want to?
- Exhibit B made my ovaries shrivel.
- Who’s that gay bloke standing next to the giant woman?
