The Knight and Her Emperor — Chapter 5

Phew, readers had some *intense* feelings after diving into The Knight and Her Emperor(Official) Chapter 5! 😠 The dominant reaction? Absolute frustration and anger over the blatant misogyny displayed by some male characters towards our protagonist.

Readers felt the sexism was "insane" and couldn't stand how her treatment changed so drastically and negatively once her identity as a woman was revealed, calling it "pathetic" and "disgusting." The comments were full of passionate calls for the offending characters to "Back off! 🤺" and expressed strong desires for retribution, like wanting them to "KICK HIM IN THE BALLS." 🔥

The chapter clearly succeeded in stirring up serious "feminine rage," with many commenters noting sadly that this kind of behavior felt like a "disgusting reality." While one reader gently reminded others about the era the story is set in, the overwhelming sentiment was one of deep dislike for the chauvinistic characters and excitement to see them get their comeuppance. Chapter 5 definitely struck a nerve!
