probably autism. Women's minds work differently but not differently enough that you can't see things from their perspective

>>13891053
Women are biologically incapable of intellectual thought no exceptions

>>13891060
Can you recommend me a book written by a female?

Pleb.

>>13891053
Because women don't know how to write nor do anything else except bearing children. They can be taught to do some tasks that require minimal IQ like washing clothes and cooking serviceable meals, nothing more.

XY contains X but XX doesn't contain Y.

Nietzsche said it best: the enigma of woman lies in its vacuity, us men cannot fathom that a human being could possibly be as empty as they appear to be, and so we imagine that they have incredible depth that we can't grasp. But really, all they want is to reproduce and have a rich alpha male locked down to provide for them and give them social status to be admired by their friends. There, I have summarized the female mind for you, this is literally the only thing their litterature ever expresses.

>>13891075
Atlas Shrugged

>>13891107
Im sexist and all but I don't think Nietzsche really knew that much about women. Yeah women would like to have a hot alpha male, men also spend their entire lives trying to gain some kind of status so they can get a hot woman. You can't reduce the inner experience of either sex to these impulses.

If you're into philosphy JS Mill cowrote most of his books with his wife

>>13891115
You can with women

>>13891115
this, also sexual love is one of the most profound and beautiful things in the world, why denigrate it?>>13891107

My mother is a CEO and my sister is a lawyer. incels who hate on women with old views are worse than women that write bad books. Women are different, and some are worth their weight. I come from a family of them.

>>13891128
They're probably still whores though

>>13891084
this is actually a very forward way of thinking
>>13891106
is just an idiot

most females are midwits,
males are either genius or idiots

>>13891113
This book was terrible. Rand was a monster.

Incels please leave.

>>13891053
because you're an idiot, in common with several other people in this thread

>>13891115
>women
>inner experience

>>13891142
Midwit doesn't mean average. Midwit is 110-120 range

>>13891128
were talking in generality's here your anecdotal example isn't worth shit right now because generally speaking it is common knowledge that woman are fucking bastards

>>13891142
Can you not read graphs? Most men are midwits, there's just more of the extremes compared to existence. whereas female morons and and genius are much scarcer in existence compared to male ones.

>>13891137
They've had more sex than me. I've only had two one night stands and I'm 35. sigh. Don't get me wrong, I think the sexual revolution was a mistake, but I also don't think a chaste woman should be constrained to childcare.

>>13891169
>thinks sexual revolution was a mistake
>has one night stands

>>13891145
what's so wrong with casual woman hating?
your not a faggot that can't tolerate an opposing opinion now are you? kys you fucking fascist

>>13891188
when I was 24 and I haven't had sex since. I'm a flawed person not a character from your coloring book.

>>13891227
dude get a wife

>>13891227
Sounds like what women say to excuse being sluts while young

>>13891233
the ones that are left have no teeth from meth addiction, more body hair than I do, or some other defect. The woman is supposed to be the fairer sex and I'm messed up in the head enough to find sex repellent unless they are pedestal qualifying in their personality and looks. I'll probably marry an asian when I'm in my forties or something. they're all I get matched with on dating sites.

>>13891057
Based

>>13891237
They're not wrong, IMO. They are holding all the cards at a young age and aren't mature enough to choose the right path, same as I. and on a side note, I was manic at the time.

>>13891264
did you kill anyone?

>>13891253
Just go for a younger girl

>>13891270
I stalked two girls with no violent or sexual intent. But then I became convinced that one of the 10 or so girls I was macking should have been raped by me when we were together, that she'd been asking for it. Yes, I was just then turning schizo.

>>13891253
get an older girl

>>13891053
What literature by women have you read?

>>13891305
You can't read something that doesn't exist

>hijacking the thread with your blog posts about your moods
End your fucking life you miserable little shit. Go get hookers if you feel the need for sex and affection (which is perfectly normal and healthy), don't deal with women and their bullshit and their drama and their problems (most of them are thousands of dollars in debt just to give you one example), paying a hooker is the most cost-effective way to get sex by far when you consider everything you have to pay when dealing with women, in terms of time, money, effort, emotions, feelings of responsibility towards the utter mess that is her life, not to mention legal risks, don't you forget that you can get assraped in family courts any time by a woman you're gotten too close to.

There you go, solved your existential crisis, thank me later and talk about BOOKS now. Namely books written by women and how much they suck like everything else ever produced by women.

>>13891296
ah, no wonder you haven't had sex in over a decade, your a weirdo. i think you should write a book

>>13891053
If you can't enjoy Jane Austen, you shouldn't be reading in the first place. She is arguably a top-three English novelist. Some say she perfected the English novel. Even a fashy guy like Pound recommended her and praised her heavily.

>>13891315
and anon said "miss jane austen is a highly acclaimed English novelist, why i even heard mr. pound with his far right politics say he loves miss jane austen aswell" "tell me anon, what do you say about what i said about what mr. pound said about miss jane austen?"

>>13891311
women are good at genre fiction
Mercedes Lackey
Ursula leGuin
Andre Norton
Margret Weis
JK Rowlings

and all the new ones are probably good too. the last Hugo awards had them all over the place.

Wuthering Heights with Laurence Olivier is one of my favorite movies though I haven't had the chance to read the book yet.

>>13891053
You may

not good. sci-fi geeks might like her, but sci-fi geeks have bad taste

>the best novel of ancient Rome was written by a French lesbian pretending to be a gay Roman pederast

Really makes you think.

the only things women are good for are getting their gash stuffed and pumping out women, why you would read something written by such a creature is incomprehensible

>>13891446
They just get stuck in the genre stuff. I used to be a genre geek when I was a teenager but when I grew up I realized how bad a lot of it was when I read contemporary writers of general fiction. I've never read a good book by a woman that wasn't genre fiction though, so maybe this thread has a point. but then again, if you DO like genre fiction a lot of the best are women. I should say fantasy rather than genre fiction, because that's what I mean. Sci-fi like Heinlein, Herbert, Asimov, Clarke, etc are all best done by men.

>>13891481
I enjoy women's company more than men's most of the time. sadly all of my friends that are girls are long married now. meaning talking to them is weird.

The Pillow Book by Sei Shonagon.

Genji Monogatari by Murasaki Shikibu.

Women write for women, men write for men and women.

>>13891163
but generalities hold about as much weight as anecdotal evidence. in fact anecdotes might be batter since it's based on something that had actually happened. unfortunately here they both tend to be lies

>>13891053
It's because women's state of mind is constrained by political correctness and trivial feelings.
Their literature is so trivial that even a 10-year-old with middle-grade level intelligence can understand it completely without a need to pause and reflect and decipher the author's thoughts.
But the worse thing is their fascination with political correctness.
Look at what happen to Scifi, they turned a controversial, thought-provoking and very original genre into delusions of cliched grandeur of peace and love and jealousy and pride and other predictable trivial thoughts utterly commonplace to a teenager.
Even when exposed to red-pills they still continue doing their trivial stuff. Like they can't see it. It's as if they can only learn what they wanted to hear. Like a literal non-playing character.
And It can't be helped, they can't be geniuses. The peak of a female author is when she's able to write a stale and overused story in it's greatest detail.

If you cant enjoy austen or wuthering heights you might actually be a pleb

>>13891053
Im reading Water for Elephants by sara gruen.
I can only say that is comfy, even in times when she thinks she is trying to make it "rough" for the protagonist is all a cute rough and it gets a sense of motherly comfyness. I dont know if that is a good thing but i like it.

Alice Walker - Everyday Use

Great short story that portrays how some people alienate themselves from their true cultural roots by aligning themselves with some remote projection of their heritage.

>>13891075
Ursula K Leguin

Tale of Genji, Murasaki Shikibu

>>13891053
Bohemond’s appearance was, to put it briefly, unlike that of any other man seen in those days in the Roman world, whether Greek or barbarian. The sight of him inspired admiration, the mention of his name terror. I will describe in detail the barbarian’s characteristics. His stature was such that he towered almost a full cubit over the tallest men. He was slender of waist and flanks, with broad shoulders and chest, strong in the arms; in general he was neither taper of form, nor heavily built and fleshy, but perfectly proportioned – one might say that he conformed to the Polyclitean ideal. His hands were large, he had a good firm stance, and his neck and back were compact. If to the accurate and meticulous observer he appeared to stoop slightly, that was not caused by any weakness of the vertebrae of the lower spine, but presumably there was some malformation there from birth. The skin all over his body was very white, except for his face which was both white and red. His hair was lightish-brown and not as long as that of other barbarians (that is, it did not hang on his shoulders); in fact, the man had no great predilection for long hair, but cut his short, to the ears. Whether his beard was red or of any other colour I cannot say, for the razor had attacked it, leaving his chin smoother than any marble. However, it appeared to be red. His eyes were light-blue and gave some hint of the man’s spirit and dignity. He breathed freely through nostrils that were broad, worthy of his chest and a fine outlet for the breath that came in gusts from his lungs. There was a certain charm about him, but it was somewhat dimmed by the alarm his person as a whole inspired; there was a hard, savage quality in his whole aspect, due, I suppose, to his great stature and his eyes; even his laugh sounded like a threat to others. Such was his constitution, mental and physical, that in him both courage and love were armed, both ready for combat.
