/lit/ - Literature

>>15808359
Fiction: yes.
Non-fiction: no.

>>15808359
sure

Are you implying women have a stable attention span?

>>15808359
Hardly since literature has been a male realm for most of human history
The real question is, is reading a good hobby? And of course it is

>>15808359
statistically speaking, yes. But writing is a mostly masculine hobby. Statistically speaking.

>>15808359
>Is reading a feminine hobby?
Depends. Reading for entertainment? Absolutely. Reading for analysis, insight, aesthetic, and spiritual reasons? No.

It is called feminine by the jocks, the chads, the player characters of the world. The wizards, NPCs, söy boys, the degenerate clerical types who lose everything to their books, only seem “feminine” the former.

Literacy, and strict aversion to natural or pictorial imagery, in general however makes the minds of men misogynistic and violent.
Not enough is know how women react, if at all different, to mass introduction to literacy, but on the whole the seem unchanged for the most part.

>>15808382
Hegel's more fiction than non-fiction though

You never encountered an autistic library girl?
>>15808980
Sure, why not?

unfortunately, yes
whens the last time you saw Chad reading?

>>15808998
Hey, do you know the name of the piece that's played in the beginning? Particularly around 0:20?

>>15808359
>is it masculine?
obviously no,
therefore yes to your question

Great taste my friend

>>15808998
Are they autistic from reading? Are they violent?
I don’t think Hillary Clinton is a sociopathic killer because she studied law and spends too much time pouring over texts. The theory is too broad for these general tendencies. Women might still be the same mixed bag they’ve always been. Not sure.

>>15809050
Holy shit, you're awesome, thanks.

>>15808359
Nope it's a sjruru activity :c

>>15809074
>Hillary Clinton is a sociopathic killer
Well, she defends the mass murder of unborn babies...

>>15808359
Yes, but feminine hobbies can be based too.

>>15808382
Hegel's dead, Kierkegaard killed him.

absolutely
but then again, did socrates read much? he seemed pretty masculine/chad.

>>15809111
I think hard analysis is masculine by nature of it being object oriented. To back it up but not prove it picrel

>>15809137
Socrates was a greek character used by several philosophers to express their ideas. There was no man in real life called Socrates

>>15808998
library girls are CUTE. reading in a coffee shop is degenerate and attention seeking but i'm still attracted to the people who do it.

>>15809106
>Single issue Fox News viewers
/pol/, she’s like any other lawyer defending the guilty and prosecuting the innocent, all for money. That’s what its all about

>>15809155
That's a very odd interpretation. They would have to create their influence. The character socrates is similar between them as dissimilar. Even if there was no socrates there was a socrates event that influenced Euclid of Megara as similarly as Plato

>>15809170
This, if you hate legal shit then you must hate politics

>>15809074
Hillary is a Saul Alinsky fan, so she probably reads the same way a non-autistic male reads - to gain strategic advantage over other by superior knowledge. Autistic library girl is a very specific type. If you meet one, you'll know immediately.

>>15809172
>Even if there was no socrates there was a socrates event that influenced Euclid of Megara as similarly as Plato
There's no proof of that

>>15809121
Interesting. Did he also kill Kant by commutative property, or is he still alive?

>>15809202
By definition there was a socrates event. These ppl got together and experienced a socrates. I'm saying the experience is too in depth for it not to be huge if not a person.

>>15809155
even if he didn't exist, his archetype or whatever does - the idea of the ripped enlightened chad
so, while i agree reading is by and large feminine, there exists the idea of the chad bookish philosopher
i'm not sure what my point is
thanks for reading
>parking meters

What if Socrates was the Kaaba

>>15808382
THIS

>>15809209
Yes, Kierkegaard killed all continental philosophy that came before him. Then Wittgenstein killed all philosophy in general. Outside historical reasons, those two are the only needed readings in philosophy.

>>15809161
Indeed. Libraries used to be an absolute normie-free zone, but then they got wifi and the invasion began. Nowadays the park is probably your best bet for non-annoying company.

>>15809179
Law and politics are degenerate. Accept nothing less than feudalism and monarchy.

>>15809215
>ripped enlightened chad
Socrates was said to be extremely ugly and so engrossed in thought that he often forgot to wash and change his clothes. No way was he a ripped chad.
Plato on the other hand...

>>15809266
how can someone who didn't exist be ugly?

>>15809239
yeah, the silent acknowledgement/respect when you see another reader is fucking based. the only problem is creepy men take reading in public as an invitation to talk. earbuds with no music solves that problem though

>>15809266
He was a hoplite

>>15808382
It’s peak pseud to divide on fiction vs non-fiction, rather than based on quality. Feminist is marked by reading bad books both genre fiction and self-help + vapid idpol non-fiction. Masculine reading is primary source philosophy and fiction classics, particularly those in verse

>>15809419
>earbuds with no music
I only ever see girls do that. Why does reading do this to men?

>>15809445
Gonna need me a sauce on that one, buddy

>>15809551

>>15809406
Either he did exist and was ugly, or he didn't exist and the people who imagined him pictured him as ugly.
>>15809424
Still ugly and unwashed.

>>15809419
If you don't want to talk, then might as well go somewhere you'll be alone. I used to do all my math homework in a disused quarry that is now overgrown with plants. Only birds and roe deer for company.

>>15808382
This, but remember that philosophy is fiction.

>>15809266
Socrates was the fat bald NTR man of his days.

>>15808359
>Is reading a feminine hobby?
yes unless it's religious texts.

>>15809645
It's nonfiction seen through the lens of fiction.

>>15809623
i live in the city, but i do love reading on my hiking trips. i just wish i could relax in the park and read without men staring at me. sometimes i ride to an abandoned industrial area and read it's quite comfy to read there.

I'm really girly and I'm writing non fiction.

>anon doesn't read in a daffodil filled grassy field on his stomach while kicking his feet alternately up and down behind him

>>15810388
you're probably a liberal so that's a given.

>>15808359
Yes, anon. My estrogen levels are rising as I read your post.

>>15810733
I'm pretty far right.

>>15809121
>Kierkegaard
You mean Regine’s bitter hunchback

>>15808359
yes. anythings thats not physical activity, business, or engineering is feminine.

It must take a lot of courage to say all that as a degenerate basedboy, anon. Proud of you.

Your palm looks feminine, but the back doesn’t really. I guess I was expecting something a little girlier.

>>15811641
Now clench your fist, but slightly jut out your index finger while stretching your pinky.

>>15811686
