It doesn’t hurt your cause but, at bottom, the most important thing is how you look. Women decide if they will fuck you as soon as they look at you. Finding out you’ve read a bunch of classic novels isn’t going to move the needle if she has already designated you as a non-sexual option

Dusters go well below the knee, generally down near the ankles so they can keep the dust off you clothes, hence the name. Trench coats stop around the knee, generally a bit below. Unless DFW was very oddly proportioned that is a trench coat.

Only if you also have interesting things to say about the books you've read. No one wants to be around someone who's only read anything because they think it's their duty or that it will make them seem interesting. Read things you really like, and then be opinionated about it. Share those opinions and have *reasons* for those opinions. Preferably all of your opinions. Invite women into your interests.

That's pretty much the baseline amount of female attention you'll recieve unless you read slop written for women and teenagers. Being a man and reading is a gimmick to them: at first it captures their interest but very soon after it wears off.

A girl came round mine one day and was impressed with my large bookshelf and looked through it and thought it was problematic that I had a copy of the Qu-ran. She was ex-muslim and seemed to think me, as a white non-muslim, was somehow romantising the idea of Islam through reading it. I She couldn't comprehend that I enjoyed theology. Women are nonironically retarded, so there's no point trying to impress them through intellectualisms.

Honestly, good of her to take concern. Islam is cancerous. It does say something, however, when a person cannot fathom mere intellectual interest. You have to be more engaging anon. If you and your ideas are engaging, women follow along. They like to be swept up in things.

Yes.
Most of you are feminized morons that don't know how to talk to women.
I remember once talking to a woman, and I asked for her list of favorite books. I stopped her midway and called her retarded and began patronizing her, making it clear it was a mistake she ever learned to read or write.
She got turned on because women are whores who like to be abused due to the strange ways they internalize their issues with their fathers. I made it clear to her I am a gentleman who doesn't like extramarital sex, and I told the dumb whore to go waste someone else's time.
You have to be firm with women and make clear to them where they stand on a hierarchy. When you marry one, you must train them to become an inferior copy of yourself. Women deserve no autonomy or agency. Behind every accomplished woman is a great man like myself.
When the aliens synthesized us, they failed moreso with women, hence why they experience periods every month. It is faulty manufacturing.

If you want to be attractive based on reading books you have to follow these steps
>dont be unattractive
>dont try to pander to them by reading any YA romance novels or smut books. Most women will know that you're bullshitting and if you do honestly like those novels they'll think there's something wrong with you
>Don't mention "boring guy books" (moby dick, blood meridian, anything faulkner, any stoic or philosophical books) or schizo autismo books (Joyce, Pynchon any fantasy thats not lotr, witcher or got)
>instead talk about books that girls could see a guy liking while also being in her field of interest, such as Dorian Gray, Frankenstein, 100 Years Of Solitude etc. Maybe pick a controversial one like Catcher in The Rye, so you can have a healthy disagreement on it, while still using a book that some girls tend to like
>if the girl exudes neomarxist energy just talk about any Russian novelist, it doesn't matter if she's read it or not, all of them are as vain as their ideology so the mere mention of a russian author will make her like you more
Then once you have a book gf shape her in your image and make the next guy she fucks have to listen to your niche weirdo tastes.
