How do you learn to appreciate stories/art about things you dont relate to?
I have recently realised I have a somewhat childish view on things I like/appreciate. I recently discovered that the game Bloodborne, a game I really liked is in large part about womanhood/motherhood and despite my previous enjoyment of the game this has put an odd disconnect between me and the Game. Making me like the game less because its not something i can really relate to so despite me liking so many other things about it, I feel like im not the target audience and therefore its not 'for me'. Looking back i realised that this has happened in the past to an extent too and it does Limit the media I consume to things with themes ant characters that i can identify with and relate to and therefore limit my exposure to other experiences. Im autistic and introverted as hell so im already not exactly often exposed to other people's viewpoints. So what im asking is how do you change your perspective to enjoy something different without feeling like you arent the intended audience for something? Or that you cant really like it because its for some other audience?
I know one step is just to see more stuff that discusses things like this. Conveniently I already own Silksong. Another game that has a lot to say about motherhood and things of the sort albeit my avoidance of things that I dont relate to has led me to putting off playing it as Im worried I wont give it a fair shot if I go in with the wrong mindset.
