Generic as fuck, if you get tired of that boring shit give the Log Horizon light novel a try.

that would be Stranger in a Strange Land, by Robert Heinlein.

Sorry, only manga really suits that theme. Love Hina or Negima would be about perfect.

Mike's not a good self-insert
he starts out as a retarded man from another planet and then there's a timeskip and he's the messiah of free love orgies and cannibalism

literally any heinlein. heinleins portrayed worlds of free love kind of fall apart when you realise people are narcissistic in real life.

I got really into Heinlein in college
I remember in "The Moon is a Harsh Mistress" the particular flavor of polyamory was something he called "Line Marriage" where you just kept inducting progressively younger people into the marriage, and they were supposed to sleep with the oldest guy in the marriage on their honeymoon.

But then the girl ended up ditching the old guy to sleep with the protagonist anyway so it was like "why bother introducing this concept if you're not going to do anything with it"

I mean of course it was just free love propaganda/the fantasies of an aging science fiction author, but still

shit man, did you ever read time enough for love? it's a deconstruction of incest, and he's in pseudo relationships with his two daughters and time travelled back and fell in love with his mother

i mean christ he writes great stories but.

i loved in the moon is a harsh mistress how the moon forces it's independance by chucking rocks down the gravity well. so simple, but so effective.

Just avoid those with a female protagonist

>Hard mode: written by a man over 40 that also passes for patrician lit
No such thing

"Tarnsman Of Gor" has some themes like that. Just dont read the sequels.
