A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen

You know the story isn't real, and any "explanation" that makes it seem logical is purely designed by the author, right? She didn't survive anything. King made up a story about a sexual assault survivor and wrote this into it. He could have chosen literally anything else.
Sure, he was being a weird freak of an author and not for the last time.
Doesn't mean it's not outright silly to complain that a child SA survivor has a broken view of sexual norms and what adulthood is.
That's not what people are complaining about. They're complaining about the author wanting to write about that.
It is literally what the comment I responded to was complaining about.
