I'm now about 2/3 of the way through Altered Carbon by Richard K. Morgan and ugh. Like, it's a cool mystery and has some neat scifi ideas in it. But I can't handle the Extremely Male Gaze™ shit.

Like, at first, I thought it was maybe trying to make a point about dissociation of having a new body and it's weird hormones doing weird things and how distracting it was. If that was true, it was a bit ham-fisted and over-gleeful, but, like, I get the point.

But now, most other dissociative things have stopped being mentioned and we're still hearing about women's bodies.
