why is /lit/ so masculine?

Have you even read Fran Lebowitz or Toni Morrison?

Why do you have such a useless photo saved to your computer?

I would be embarrassed to walk in on that amateur photo-shoot... "Can I get please get past you, to the psychology section?"

>> No.2755815

Because /lit/, like 4chan, is mostly men. Most people tend not to sway too far from the norm in terms of gender identity, so the average /lit/ poster is masculine.

I know, it is already embarrassing enough to be mistaken for holding eye contact with such a girl, when you are really wondering from where the fuck that glare between her eyes is coming.

It is probably a pic of OP, hoping someone would ask "omg that lovely, unique woman in the book store, where can I find her?"

You know what's odd? I've been thought of being a woman several times based on nothing but the content of the things I put on the Internet. It's very interesting to me the things people infer based on nothing but text. It makes me think there is such as thing as a "feminine text", even though I've often thought that concept is rather too muddy to be useful.

toni morrison was aight nigga

beloved wasn't as complicated as the dumb shit nobel society made it out to be though, just immerse yourself in battle rap and the wordplay makes sense

also context things r cute but not too kosher in my book but w/e

ICE does morrison better than she did tbh or should i say morrison does ICE worse (but that's expected since ICE is the greatest contributor to the literary scene since the postmodernists)

So it's difficult to actually use in a meaningful way (the term I mean, not the voice). It boils down to a gut feeling, and that's rather worthless in any sort of discourse.

I don't think that's a library, and I don't think she's in any section. I think that's a terribly arranged bookstore.

why don't you just say "i can't define something like that" instead of gushing in the fawny "really properly"? why the insecurity in ignorance?

It looks like a used book store. Most of them don't arrange very particularly beyond broad genres.

Come on, she's pretty cute. She's just not doing any favors for herself with that outfit. I think that shirt just totally destroys her entire figure. It's like a burlap sack with a low neckline. Then contrast that with her little shorts and it's just unbalanced. She has a good bust that she's just wasting and showing off legs that need to be covered up. It's all just so wrong. I recommend going the opposite. Tighter tops and either dresses/skirts or jeans.

>> No.2755931

To be honest, she looks like she doesn't belong in the bookstore - she looks like a streetwalker just escaping the heat in an air-conditioned building....

what does this even mean

how is head ice "internet culture"? nigga's battle rapped in harlem for 20+ years possibly furthest thing from internet shit ever in existence

why do you assume i'm referencing "trap music" at all? wtf did the post have to do with trap music? the intent was wolf/trap/snapjaw/bear connection, not trap music connection as that isn't I.C.E.'s shtick, trap referring to ghetto lifestyle

and why do wolves irk you so much? remind you of those hungry poor "plebs" who do more than you and speak more eloquently than you possibly could with half an "education", as you'd like to call that schlock college degree?

That, being as she appears to be in a used bookshop and used bookshops don't have well-defined sections then she must not be near a defined section? Presented as though it invalidated the point that a girl standing near to some books on motherhood as the OP image in a thread on gender and literature could be seen as some sort of critique or comment on the question the OP asked. My reply was supposed to say no, that's not invalid as she's still standing next to some books on motherhood, library or no.
Or something like that.

>> No.2755938

/lit/ and 4chan aren't as masculine as you assume. It's not as if the women who regularly come here are going to disclose their gender each and every time they post.

I've read Toni Morrison and it was shit.

actually the picture is irrelevant other than the fact that there's a woman in it. i dont even understand the point you thought i was trying to make with the books.

Have you read Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, OP?
