Woman on Top, Man on Bottom

Well, I wasn't really interested in reading this book at first glance—woman on top, man on bottom, I was worried it would involve self-pleasure? (Ahem…) Actually, "top" and "bottom" refer to the perceived hierarchy of male and female status. Those with dirty minds, go stand in the corner. I've already gone. Anyway, let's get down to business. This book got 800 reads without any prior mention, and it's even on the homepage! It's definitely a successful work. For a niche story without popular gender-swap or yandere tags to achieve this, it's certainly better than my trashy work (I'm complaining again, don't mind me). In short, it's a triple affirmation of the story's entertainment value, the author's writing style, and their ability to handle material…

I am Sheng from Shenglong. I apologize for being late. After much deliberation, I've decided to offer this book review to the author. I am not a professional in writing book reviews, so please forgive any shortcomings. (I) Some Thoughts on the Novel's Content The author put a lot of effort into the book and clearly values its quality. During the writing process, they considered whether the writing style fit the light novel genre. As for the characteristics of light novels, it's difficult for me, as a reader, to summarize them. However, regarding the characteristics of light novels, someone once told me the following: 1. The main characters are teenagers, and the plot unfolds from within the protagonist's "circle"; 2. ...

Commentator: Zhai Mao Title: Interesting Setting, but Unfortunately, It Wasn't Used Well Summary: Although there are problems with the character design and plot, the most fundamental issue lies in the understanding of the setting. Suitable Readers: Authors who fail to understand the selling points of their own setting. Word Count: 2000 Reading Time: 4 minutes Hello everyone, this is Zhai Mao. Today's book review is "Woman on Top, Man on Bottom" by Li Yu Shui. This book's setting differs from typical gender-swap/crossdressing novels; it transforms the psychological states of men and women. For example, the concept of marriage, the concept of chastity for men and women, and various social responsibilities are all addressed...

Sigh, it's been over a year since I started writing the book. Looking back, I still prefer the female-dominant style. Although everyone says I wasted the subject matter and the selling points, which is true, I don't really regret it.

We live in a patriarchal world, a world that is indeed too lenient on men and too harsh on women. Whether at work or in life, men and women are still more inclined towards a subordinate relationship, and true equality is not achieved. I find the author's line of thinking very interesting and novel. In a patriarchal world, women are required to be obedient and virtuous, and their bodies and minds are immaculate; if they are defiled, they are scorned. In a matriarchal world, men will certainly be bound by similar shackles. Since female predators and perverts have already emerged, the author might as well expand on this and write about all the gender injustices in contemporary society in a different way, so that more people can see what happens when women become superior...

I can't believe it! This doesn't feel like a light novel at all. Seriously, even you've noticed it yourself, it looks like a high-quality romance novel, with a sweet, romantic feel. And the female-on-top, male-on-bottom setting is absolutely so incredibly novel! I had this novel saved in my favorites but hadn't read it yet, thinking it would be another one of those mindless harem stories flooding this site, full of mindless cuteness and fanservice dialogue. Now I really regret not reading it sooner; I feel like I've missed out for so long. However, I also regret reading it now... MMP, it seems like you don't have any chapters saved up. Waiting for your updates means I'll be stuck for another year...

Okay, let me mention the shortcomings first: this book lacks depth. The premise is very novel, immediately drawing the reader in and making the opening very successful. On a side note, if this sister doesn't recommend it, I'll send you a knife. Based on this premise, my first reaction was that the male lead is so lucky, having a huge harem and displaying his prowess. The plot's entry is good. The writing is decent, the narrative ability is good, and the flashbacks complement the reading experience well. The writing is organized, logical, and appropriately descriptive, without being padded, with attention to detail, and the length is well-managed. The metaphors and imagery are well-placed, not profound, but present. It has the feel of a light novel...

While seeking reality within fantasy is insane, the author's world-building is riddled with flaws. A world-building is like a stage; even the best plot and actors can't mask a bad stage. I've read many novels with a matriarchal society setting, and while it's a necessary but not insurmountable element, the cause of a matriarchal society is crucial. This reason can be arbitrary, but it absolutely cannot be absent. It acts like a table of contents, guiding the reader's immersion. Because this aspect is lacking in concrete details, similar matriarchal plots always feel forced. For example, in the second volume, the scene with Wang Xiaodan and the protagonist—where men are clearly physically stronger than women—the protagonist's performance is awkwardly contrived...

I really hate it when novels describe how amazing your skills are in games like League of Legends or PUBG, or how you're invincible in those games.

I'll fuck your mother's blood.
