Why can't men write books without inserting their sexual fantasies into them?

If you read a book by a man and a book by a woman in the same genre, the difference is night and day. The woman isn't titallating herself.

This is a lie but older authors often did use less explicit means, you're right. Non-explicit is still inexcusable though. I don't want to read a page describing a 15 year old's young body. Fucking gross, honestly.

How the fuck do you read this and get "pedophile?" It's literally just a description of a typical teen girl. He's not saying he wants to fuck her.

And the women in books by men are complete objects, too. We'll get a description of her body, the MC will find her sexy or she'll find him sexy, and that's about it as far as her characterization goes. She might be a femme fatale or a manic pixie dream girl but her whole purpose in the novel is to titallate the author and provide romance/sex for the protagonist.

Nothing showcases men's inability to empathize with women and see them as fully-formed human beings more than media written by men. This includes books, tv, movies, etc. It's all the same beast.

These physical descriptions are rarely given to teenage boys. We don't get descriptions of their lithe abdomens and filling groins. Male authors spend paragraphs describing female bodies (regardless of age) when there is no reason to go into such detail. We will know the shape of a woman's breast, the curve of her lips, and the length of her legs but will only know a male character has black hair and is on the tall side.

Men should be embarrassed.

Women to men are a set of objects. They vary between each other but they are all objects -- meant to be looked at, meant to perform, but not meant to be considered an actual person. We see this in the way men write women. A man's fantasy is a buffet of women where he picks his favorite one. His favorite is not the one that makes him laugh, it's the one with Double Ds or a 14 year old's body or legs for days.

If I have a lot of respect for women, and really want one to be my Mommy, is that okay? I'll love her so much and do anything for her and never objectify her and always try to make her happy, but all I ask is that she acts maternally towards me instead of merely feminine and certainly not any manner of submissiveness towards me...everyone on this site calls me a beta and even a tranny for this though, but it's just my own personal way of expressing myself romantically and I can't really get rid of it...I just hope real women like yourself are accepting of it, but I sadly suspect you aren't...most girls want their man to dominate and lead them while still respecting them as a human being, and nearly none desire what I seek...

Perhaps women are written as sexual objects because that's how they live in reality.

men value sex and claim to be good at sex (which they are not, especially with virgin girls) only because they know it is on sex and harmless fun that a woman bases her decision to let men continue to care for her.

If a woman was able to acknowledge a man in a non sexual way, then men would care more about this way than sex. But that is not the case, women center their life on sex and they love to let compete for them, take only the men who show how well they can entertain women.

The blow back for women is that repulsive, poor men continue to try to be noticed by women and men do not know when to stop.

Another problem for women, is that once a man is chosen by a woman for the fucking and caring, the man thinks he no longer competes against other men, and that woman no longer has any orbiters. The man thinks his victory is perpetual. Then the woman gets less and less harmless fun that she craves, so she choose a few other disposable orbiters. Then the current provider no longer feels acknowledged and begins to seek the validation of another woman.

Also, women do not have babies because ''muh genes'' muh evolution.
Women have babies because
-they love to spread their legs
-their parents push them for grand children
-they get bored and they see the family as a way to keep the relationship alive
-they see other women having babies and being okay with it

This stuff about ''tough healthy males'' comes from the male love to interpret anything through their fantasy of dominance and submission, but this is because they love to confuse dominance with being active and submission with being passive so that they delude themselves that they are not the weaker sex by being so active, whereas their activities turn out to be only making women comfy and make life harder for men.

Women know this male clinging to power fantasies by heart and they have no problem using it to avoid being as destitute as a men can become, while still thinking that those women realize the female fantasy of intimacy, of going beyond passing for and knowing to be slutty goldiggers, by being devoted to the realization of the fantasy of grandiosity of a few men or more commonly by having children and creating a family.

>> No.12923398

What women want the most is harmless fun and intimacy. THey get to realize their fantasy first when they are young with men, by trying to let their ''ego'' on the side and realize the sexual fantasies of the men who fuck them. WOmen quickly learn that the only healthy way to relate to men is to be capitalistic on the male market.

WOmen quickly learn that the only healthy way to relate to men is to be capitalistic on the male market.

But The fantasy of being intimate is realized with having children. THis is what men do not understand. Women love ''to be selfless'' by caring about children and they delude themselves that their compassion and unconditional love for the children is a good thing. Childless women direct their retarded compassion towards animals and children they do not know.
So women love children for the intimacy. Women rely on men for the sex and care they give.

only women know how to love:

love of men towards women = love of women towards children = unconditional love (utopian for men, effective for women)

love of men towards children (= an aid to retire and stop their suffering) = love of women towards men = utility towards more pleasures and less pains now and in the future
