Njengoninzi lweencwadi zeencwadi, ndichithe uninzi lwabantu bokuvalelwa bodwa bezingelwe ziinoveli. Kwaye ukulungiselela NaNoWrimo ngo-Novemba, bendikhe ndangena emanzini ndibhala ndibhala, ndisebenzisa ezinye zefantasy kunye ne-sci-fi ezithandwa kakhulu njenge-inspo: INkosi yeeRingi, uMdlalo weTrone, iDune, iNecromancer … Uluhlu luyaqhubeka.
Kodwa njengoko ndijongile ndaphinda ndafunda uninzi lwezi klasiki, ndiye ndaphawula indlela engathandekiyo xa kufikwa kunyango lwabasetyhini kwi-classic sci-fi / fantasy: baphathwa kakuhle ngokungathandabuzekiyo ngokugqibeleleyo ... kwaye ngokwenene, ngokwenene kakubi kakhulu. Amaxesha amaninzi, ukulungiselela ukuqhubela phambili ukukhula komlingiswa oyindoda (okanye asebenze njengendawo ebuyayo emva kwebali lakhe le-arc) abalinganiswa ababhinqileyo bayaphathwa gadalala, bahlonitshwe, okanye babulawe ngeendlela ezingathandekiyo.
Kumfanekiso ongentla, sibona oku kudlalwa kwiipaneli zencwadi yokuhlekisa: UKyle Rayner (iGreen Lantern ye-Emerald Twilight Arc) uza ekhaya eze kufumanisa ukuba intombi yakhe u-Alexandra DeWitt ibulewe yashiywa kwifriji ukuze ayifumane. . Kwaye ke igama lesixhobo sebali lazalwa: Abafazi abakwiZiqandisi zenyuka.
Ukubeka ngokufihlakeleyo ngakumbi, Abasetyhini kwiifriji sisixhobo sebali apho abalinganiswa ababhinqileyo benzakaliswa, babulawe, okanye bephulwe ngenjongo yokuqhubela phambili ukukhula komlinganiswa ophambili oyindoda. Amaxesha amaninzi akusekho kuzimela geqe kunikwa lo mlinganiswa wasetyhini ngaphandle kokusebenza njengesixhobo se-angst kunye nokuzikhulisa kwimpawu yobudoda. Sithethile kakhulu malunga nabasetyhini abafakwe kwiifilimu nakwiinkqubo zeTV, kodwa kuncinci kwiincwadi-apho ezininzi zeengxelo eziguqulelwe kamva zaqala khona.
Ngezizathu ezicacileyo, le ngu ngokwenene trope eyoyikekayo. Ayisiyiyo kuphela into yokuba inciphisa umlinganiswa obhinqileyo abe sisixhobo esikwimo yemvakalelo-kodwa ngenxa yokuba iyala ukuthathela ingqalelo ezinye iindlela umlinganiswa anokufumana ngazo ubulumko, isimilo kunye noloyiso. Kutheni le nto umlinganiswa obhinqileyo angahlonitshwa ukuze avumele umlinganiswa oyindoda aqole?
Koko kufanelekileyo, ukuxhaphaka kwale trope kwi-classic sci-fi / fantasy kwenza ingqiqo ngakumbi xa ukhumbula ixesha apho le misebenzi yabhalwa khona-kwaye nangaphezulu, inani labantu elalilawula uhlobo olujikeleze elo xesha ngokunjalo.
Kodwa nangona iintsomi eziyinyani zenze inkqubela phambili kunyango lwayo lwabasetyhini kwiminyaka yakutshanje, oko akuthethi ukuba kugqibelele. Ukufunda ezi ncwadi zakudala kunye nezithandwayo kundenze ndazibona iindlela apho uMfazi kwiiFriji zetrope athe waphinde wasetyenziswa kwakhona watolikwa kwakhona kwimisebenzi emitsha. Kwaye kwandenza ukuba ndikhumbule impembelelo yokuba le misebenzi yakudala inokuba nayo kwezi zilandelayo, nokuba iinjongo ezichazwe kuzo azikapheli kakuhle.
Ke oku kuyisikhumbuzo sokuba ukuba wenza umlinganiswa obhinqileyo omiselwe ukudibana nesiphelo esibuhlungu, okanye ojongana nokuphathwa gadalala okanye ukwenzakala, kubalulekile ukuba uvavanye ngabom ngoba Uhlangabezana nezi zinto. Ngaba lukhona utshintsho olukhulu, isifundo, okanye iarc emiselwe ukuba ibe nayo? Okanye ngaba intlekele yakhe iyaxhatshazwa ngenxa yokukhula komntu oyindoda? Kwaye ukuba uyanda usiya kwezinye iindlela ezinqamlezileyo: jongana neendlela eziphathwa ngayo amabhinqa anemibala emsebenzini wakho, kunye nezizathu ezisemva kwawo.
Kubaluleke ngakumbi kunanini na ngaphambili ukudala abalinganiswa abahlukeneyo kwaye banesigqeba esizalisekisa ibali, kunokuba sondle kwi-cliché ye-archaic. Kubalulekile ukunika abalinganiswa ababhinqileyo ithuba lokuba babe ngaphezulu kunentombazana ekubandezelekeni okanye kwisixhobo sebali elineemvakalelo. Oku akuthethi ukuba abalinganiswa babasetyhini kufuneka kuphela unamava awakhayo, kwaye ayikatsho ukuba nawuphina umlinganiswa obhinqileyo ofumana ukusweleka okanye amava abuhlungu akhawuleza abe yi-fridid.
Endaweni yokuba, eyona nto ibaluleke kakhulu ukuba uyiqonde ngumahluko phakathi komntu obhinqileyo owenzeka kwizinto ezimbi-Ngokuchasene nomntu ongumfazi onjongo yakhe ikuku kuba buhlungu.
