/lit/ - Literature

>>21601959
Great, empathetic post. I think, to abstract away from what you're specifically saying about /lit/ type younger women who aestheticize being a intellectual & "indie", women especially as they age, have very different baggage from men. Whereas boys are always taught that they do not have intrinsic value, that their feelings do not matter, etc. girls are socialized to believe they do have intrinsic value because they are young, pretty and pure. As they age and become adult women I imagine it's quite painful to adjust to this, which is something that men cannot relate to at all because their pain comes from a completely different source. At least I think that's the spirit of what you're saying. The only point I'd disagree with is that settling down and having kids will offer your life meaning. I think for normies perhaps it does, but if you are depressed, alienated, not part of the masses I doubt that it helps. This goes for women who are more independent or feminist or less traditional especially.

This kind of stuff has cropped up occasionally in the past but the quality of this board has taken a nosedive recently. It's not the fact that these people have political views that differ from mine. It's that they're not here to discuss literature and apparently read rarely if at all. We can't even have a decent thread about a woman fiction writer without a flood of /pol/ crossposters shitting it up. This board has honestly become insufferable. It's right there in the sticky-

>/lit/ is for the discussion of literature, specifically books (fiction & non-fiction), short stories, poetry, creative writing, etc. If you want to discuss history, religion, or the humanities, go to /his/. If you want to discuss politics, go to /pol/. Philosophical discussion can go on either /lit/ or /his/, but ideally those discussions of philosophy that take place on /lit/ should be based around specific philosophical works to which posters can refer.

Therefore, if you're going to make another anti-Foucault thread, for example, you should be prepared to discuss at least one of his books. Mods need to do a much better job keeping things literature related. This is a meta thread so it's /lit/ related pls don't delet.
