I deeply appreciate The Murderbot Diaries for being what it is.
(And seeing ANYONE miss the point so hard that they think that Murderbot should be assigned a gender now that it's "so human" makes me want to flip tables.)
I haven't read The Left Hand of Darkness in a LONG time, and to be honest, there's probably a lot that I didn't really understand well when I did read it. I can very much see ways in which it did not age well in respect to the ways attitudes and language have both progressed.
