Foreshadowing and male pain[edit]

@194.9.244.37:@194.9.244.49: There appears to be an edit war regarding the use of "male" and "foreshadowed" in the lead section. The body of the article refers specifically to the male experience with war and duels. It also refers to separate instances of the book foreshadowing some works and influencing others. The citations specifically support the use of these phrases. So the inclusion of these two words in the lead section seem necessary. Please, before removing these words again, please state your reasoning here so we can reach consensus. Dugan Murphy (talk) 15:26, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Speculative fiction[edit]

@Allforrous: I noticed you just added the category for speculative fiction. That doesn't sound like a great match to me, but I'm curious what your thinking is in adding that category. Dugan Murphy (talk) 03:43, 19 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
