I stopped discussing books seriously with women long ago.

I had great relationships with girls who only ever read what they were asked too during class. One of the nicest girls I got with only had one book in her whole appartment, "Chicken Soup for the soul".

On the opposite, one of my exes read a lot, a huge lot, but missinterpreted most of what she read so it would fit her worldview and could get really unsufferable sometimes trying to explain philosophy or spirituality to me and using Buddhism and whichever authors she liked to push feminism, equalitarianism, and open sex.

It was the noble races which left the concept of ‘barbarian’ in their traces wherever they went; even their highest culture betrays the fact that they were conscious of this and indeed proud of it

I wouldn't even be surprised should that be true. Neoplatonism, Gnosticism and Hermeticism are astrology for men (hence more developed than female magazine horoscopes).
There are few women that don't have at least a passing curiosity for magic and astrology. I knew a guy that got laid with supermodel tier women by showing his expertise on tarot (also the psychology of Carl Jung). Those "philosophies" are the natural step up.

>My favorite book....my favorite book? Anonette, asking me what my favorite book is is like asking a parent who their favorite child is. This is a false dilemma. I have many favorite books. Just because two books are both books does not mean they are comparable to one another. To ask me to choose between, say, Fyodor Dostoevsky’s The Brothers Karamazov and Marcel Proust’s In Search of Lost Time is to ask me to choose between two things that are not the same. Dostoevsky’s The Brothers Karamazov is a tragic story of a family centering around the conflict between faith in God and the doubts in Him raised by this material world. Marcel Proust’s masterpiece, on the other hand, is a coming of age story. A story of a boy growing into a man and the lessons he learns along the way, all while lampooning the behavior of early 20th century French aristocrats. To ask me to choose a “favorite” between these leads me towards two possible conclusions: one, you are simply not familiar with literature as medium and therefore do not understand why the question you are asking me is faulty on premise, or two, you are simply a cruel-hearted wench who enjoys inflicting intellectual upon men.

A chick was judging me for reading pynchon once, I am a try hard and prefer other books but I brought it up and she said along the lines of "oh you like that guy." She then called it bro lit, these books: IJ, Frazen, Joyce are always liked by "men" or someshit.

A few days later we were talking and mentioned that she loved Catcher In The Rye so I told her how the dude was a creep and brought up all the stories of him seducing underage girls, she knew about this already and couldn't argue when I said he should be "cancelled". She also loved Dickens so I remined her of how he cheated on then abandoned his wife after starting a smear campaign about her and took full custody of her 10 children denying her access to them. She didn't know this and I could tell it really bothered her, she was looking it all up on her phone at break. Later on we were discussing other authors who were weird and Pynchon came up again, I said "thats what I like about Pynchon, such moral chracter and such political fiction, he was writing about the ecological crisis and black rights back when that wasn't the norm, he also wasn't a creep to women from what I can gather." She never mentioned the bro lit thing again.

>A few days later we were talking and mentioned that she loved Catcher In The Rye so I told her how the dude was a creep and brought up all the stories of him seducing underage girls, she knew about this already and couldn't argue when I said he should be "cancelled". She also loved Dickens so I remined her of how he cheated on then abandoned his wife after starting a smear campaign about her and took full custody of her 10 children denying her access to them. She didn't know this and I could tell it really bothered her, she was looking it all up on her phone at break. Later on we were discussing other authors who were weird and Pynchon came up again, I said "thats what I like about Pynchon, such moral chracter and such political fiction, he was writing about the ecological crisis and black rights back when that wasn't the norm, he also wasn't a creep to women from what I can gather." She never mentioned the bro lit thing again.
>Sometimes I wonder if they all are, I really want to treat a women nice but these storys of abuse makes me feel that i'm part of a population of rapists, I can't ask chicks out now beacuse I just feel so sad about it all, I just feel weird, when I hear my friends talking about giving chicks exstacy and shit then fucking them it just makes me feel weird. I feel most men I meet don't treat women properly and I wonder if I ever could. I'm going to kill myself when I grow a pair, I was born a rapist and my consciousness rebels against my flesh. I really wish I could wipe out life, if I could I would, I really would.

it's not my favorite book, though I would understand why someone would pick it as their favorite
the amount of talent that one needs in order to not only defend but also make the reader empathize with a pedofile it's amazing

it's not a zoomer thing
narrow minded people have the most retarded takes in everything
no wonder they don't understand that the writer tried to make the reader feel like a pedophile on purpose

Weirdly, my only Ayn Rand is a copy of Anthem a woman gave me after a date.

don't project. YOU felt that way because you're a pervert. I don't understand how someone could consider Lolita to be their favorite book, but if you read it and didn't hate the narrator on a primal level then you didn't read it well enough.
Or did you think Dolores says "squashed squirrel" because Nabby thought it was funny?

I've got another lesson for you
If you want to land an H.V.M.
Stay far away from these dating stratagems

By some unknown mechanism
Shining basic instinct through the prism
of over-articulating millennial autism-

infuses it with hate
fucks with your date
and leaves you alone and without a mate

You should have been a better listener
from your mom or your sister
the first time they said it

now you're an adult getting
basic lessons of girlhood
from reddit

oompa loompa dopadee dee
take my advice
leave female dating strategy
