I don't get it. Why is /lit/ so afraid of women?

Is this board full of homos or something?

Nah, they just read because of their own sexual frustrations.

No, is it full of dumbasses.
In other boards, it's common to see guys "greentexting" and posting only with an image. In here, it's just a sign some kid accidentally visited the board and wants to "troll" us.

Seriously, though, I kept falling asleep, had to backtrack to the last thing I remembered, and never advanced past page 50.

what are your favorite books?

>> No.1913306

>>1913283

Lessee. I generally like Pratchett, David Weber, Sapkowski, Jim Butcher, Garth Nix, Alan Dean Foster and Zelazny. Stuff like that. I don't really have any specific favourites, except perhaps Small Gods.

>> No.1913309

>>1913306

There it goes, the explanation. Though I have to give you props for most of the authors in there. It's just that drama is a different cup of tea.

get a dictionary and search "afraid" on it, because you obviously don't know what it means

>>1913247
Sexual frustrations is just another way of saying "woman"

So you feel superior for not using images and greentext? thats fabulous, I am proud

why do women always try to make someone a virgin/loser when they bash women? lol feminism

>> No.1913343

>>1913309

Yeah, I know it's another cup of tea, but I try to branch out in my tastes - try new things. P&P is one of the few books where I couldn't get through the first few chapters. Even Twilight was more readable.

> So you feel superior for not using images and greentext? thats fabulous, I am proud
No, because I still use greentext. For quoting. I also use images when it's relevant to my post.

Just posting reaction images and "implications" and "my face when" is imbecilic conversation. Which is okay in other places, but this is supposed to be the literature board.
