Fratire is genre of writing aimed specifically at the 18-35 male demographic. Often contains depictions of drunken escapades, "hedonistic" living, and sexual adventures. Also conveys a mocking attitude toward social convention, manners and authority. It was pioneered by writers such as Tucker Max, Robert Hamburger and Maddox.
Satire (from Latin satura, not from the Greek mythological figure satyr[1]) is a literary genre, chiefly literary and dramatic, in which human or individual vices, follies, abuses, or shortcomings are held up to censure by means of ridicule, derision, burlesque, irony, or other methods, sometimes with an intent to bring about improvement.[2] It is used in graphic arts and performing arts as well. Although satire is usually meant to be humorous, the purpose of satire is not primarily humour but criticism of an event, an individual or a group in a clever manner.
