RR Also allows smut, doesnt "Everyone loves large chests" has like several futa sex scenes? Very detailed at that? lol
Sex scenes are fine, even detailed ones. It's more on the point of the story. Kind of like you won't call Game of Thrones smut, right, even if there's a lot of sex scenes there? Some RR authors do make it their goal to see how much they can get away with sex scenes before mods can shut them down. One of the major selling points of SH is that sexual fantasies are at the forefront of stories here.
The whole point of the conversation is that no, it lacks variety, and it simply ignores anything that spices things up
I suppose as to what I mean by 'variety' I should clarify myself more. I'm referring to the survival of a story that's not the mainstream for the site. I did mention that if we include smut, or erotica, SH will be more varied because of the sheer amount of "topics" that erotica can cover. But if we're referring to stories that are not the mainstream preference of the site itself, RR is more open to that. Like I know a few historical pieces in RR that are obviously not for both RR and SH audiences, but they have a few hundred followers in RR.
My own story for example, not geared for either RR or SH audiences, and I find that RR people are more open to try other things (and by other things, I mean stories not mainstream for the site). You won't really see them if you're only looking at the top, but below those big litrpgs, there are lots of RR readers who'll support different kinds of stories for the sake of trying something new. So, for experimentation, and for stories that don't really have a site they can call home, I'd say RR is better for that.
Although this discussion isn't really on topic for the thread because OP's story is something for both SH and RR.
