Can you use the "product of the times" defense if the book was wildly controversial for its time? Asking for a comment section…

“That’s not an old one, that’s a corpse nobody’s eaten yet.” Sentences I never expected to hear for 400
-
I feel like Heinlein was writing a story about a super powered alien coming to earth and learning its customs but then he got distracted and started writing about his sexual fantasies.
-
An alien who doesn't laugh laughing for the first time at the sight of the cycle of abuse is legitimately creepy
-
This feels like a fanfic that switched writers halfway through.
-
"And then in the third act, he starts a sex cult." Zeus could never-
-
First half: "wow, this could be a movie" Second half: "wow, this could be a porn movie"
-
tl;dr: Heinlein wrote a book about a powerful alien coming to Earth and learning about humanity as an outsider, but unfortunately he only had one hand on the typewriter while he did it.
-
“THATS the story? That was just the authors barely concealed fetish”
-
Jill: Dont be attractive to men. Be more masculine. Ancient Greece: Am I a joke to you?
-
"This is never explained, I think it's just something Heinlein is into" literally the entire book
-
It’s nice to see that in the book humans have evolved enough that the argument “Mike can’t own Mars because there’s already other people living there” is actually accepted, because historically, a place already being inhabited unfortunately hasn’t been enough to stop people from claiming that they own it anyway
-
I’m officially an adult now and can watch this video without hurting Red’s conscience. Finally.
-
“T-posing psychic nudist colony with rage-eyed Heinlein censor bars” is the most cursed thing I’ve seen all month.
-
Every time theres a "Deep Thoughts with Heinlein" you slowly begin to understand and feel the pain of the bystanders listening to the philosopher with agonizing looks on their faces in that greek painting
-
Red: "Which I'm sure real astrolagers would never do" The time-travelling goat-fish: ...
-
The way Red describes it, this book would actually work remarkably well as a dark comedy.
-
"So this is my religion." "Not interested." "It involves sex." "I like your words, funny magic man."
-
I wonder how many other literary classics are just a story loosely wrapped around Author Insert Fetish Porn
-
"And Ben, who IS saying No to a lot of this is being treated like he'll learn or come around" as an aro/ace I can relate
-
She left out the part where the main female lead LITERALLY tells Mike not to kill r***sts because "9 out of 10 times when a woman gets r***d, it's at least partially her fault." That was the part where I put the book down.
