since when does lit ever recommend books by women. Every thread about the subject is just Woolf and Bronte and then occasionally Feminists attempt to talk about Sartre's bitch and related people

No it's amazing whenever I hear a numale rave about his favorite philosopher and it's literally a woman

Logical thinking OP, there has never been a good book written by a woman """"Author"""" besides (imo) Atlas Shrugged.

The only female authors I have are transwomen. So they are still males.

Have the progs noticed what a serious loophole this is yet? Any guy can just be a 'trans woman' and get those sweet Women scholarships and quotas and whatnot. Plus they can tell women to check their privilege, a white guy can tell a black woman to check her privilege if he puts on a dress

Here's a suggestion, OP: spend one year casually collecting book recs of women authors. After one year, choose the most highly recommended one and read it, and give us feedback.

The only female author I've strongly recommended is Alice Munro, specifically Lives of Girls and Women. Secondarily, Frankenstein by Shelley and The Awakening by Kate Chopin are good reads, though certainly not THA BEST EVAR.

I've never enjoyed a book by a female. Besides Patricia C. WREDES DANCING WITH DRAGONS SERIES WHEN I WAS LIKE 8 YEARS OLD.

How about you don't judge a book by its cover?
