I couldn't read it all the way through she lost me after I got to the point where she was in the car with her mom and she was listening to Fergalicious. After that the writing took upon a certain quality. I just couldn't read it. I tried two or three times to read it properly but somehow I just turned illiterate. I tested if I was forgetting to read by picking up a book on my bedside, but I think I'm fine. Who knows? Perhaps it's only because I've read it before.
So I continued to read, slowing myself down more and more and I realized that I don't care enough so she was being tailed by CIA for reasons, and a bunch of characters were introduced and I don't know what is going on. I don't know if I'm an illiterate brainlet, or the writing just falls apart as soon as we depart from the mother-daughter dynamic. Maybe both.

so it is true that men are born to orbit women who have no good behavioral traits, because men do not have moral standard for women, only shallow physical standards.

In America, the "abortion debate" is an almost entirely manufactured issue, with its roots in Richard Nixon's 1972 presidential campaign. Nobody in the US really cared that much about it before then. Opposition to abortion is a purely political stance - it has no basis in science or religion. To those of you in the thread foaming at the mouth over Lindsay's abortion, you've been manipulated into caring. There is no rational or spiritual basis for your opinion - only propaganda.

Nevertheless, the book isn't great.

>> No.15829725

>>15829708
Not correct. As a political issue it was left to state's rights and the average person's opinion was negative but they assumed it was a cultural not a political issue. Only its legality became a prominent issue in the 1970s. Murdering unborn children was never seen as okay for religious people, which most were.

The debate goes a little further back than tricky dick

>> No.15830351

it is natural for men like you to crave the validation of their existence and get depressed if they fail to feel relevant, responsible, dutiful.
The best way for a man to cater his need for approval is to serve some woman (and some of her children) through emotional&financial support, which he sees as ''a childish useless submissive woman'' [or whore and he feels betrayed by her]
Men are pleased to contribute to someone else life, to support their family.

Why women are a good way to feel relevant? Because women love to be provided for and each woman will always find a man ready to please her.
[for most men, the best feeling of feeling real is when the girl moans from your cock in her pussy, or for the most impotent, their tongue in the pussy]

THe problem for men is that they are disposable in the eyes of each woman, since all men wish to serve the few women who talk to them.
Men must thus invent several ways to please women, invention and creativity which strengthen their feeling of being worthy, relevant, in touch with reality.
Men are too impotent to find other way to feel real.
Once that the a woman replaces a man by another provider, the man gets very upset and depressed.
THis leads men to think that they are better than women, stronger, smarter and that they must built a life outside women. Some men manage to indeed built an empire, but they will always loose it for some women.
Women give meaning to men and betas, no matter how successful outside women, will always give up everything for some relationship with some woman who claim to fancy them.

That's exactly it; her attitude!

And I'd still fuck her senseless!

Are you kidding? She slept with Doug Walker to win the Nostalgia Chick contest and I'm sure she slept with whoever got her a job at PBS and whoever represented her shitty scifi book. We are talking about someone who filmed her own abortion to find internet fame, after all.

Her abortion is brought up because she had the big brained idea to make a film about it. A film she was proud of and was hoping it would give her attention and fame and to an extent it has. So criticizing her critics for bringing it up is pretty disingenuous of you don't you think?

Why would I read her book when I know she's an insincere thinker from her reviews? Her review of Hercules told me that she's too afraid of The Mouse's big money to point out the film's most obvious flaw: it looks like Vegas (why does it look like Vegas?).

shes the kind of woman that gets off on the power of controlling her man with sex then wallows in gin and self pity bewildered how she struggles to experience love. got a couple of decent videos, shes seems so close to sidstepping a lot of the woke narrative or at least having some decent takes, but no
