Hey, /lit.

I keep myself wondering, why does every girl poster, when we get to know by her uncontrolled urge to pronounce herself so, needs to be special? Butterfly and her every post accompanied by a photo(or a gif) and a butterfly icon, for example, and that /sci/ girl with her incessant ⇒ ⇒ ⇒ thingy, etc. What's the psychology behind that? I know that 4chan has a distinction in it's alpha/beta male arrangement, but wouldn't girls fall in these categories even more so? That is, girls like to pretend and dream of highly unlikely things, such as horoscopes, mysticism, Alice-que type wonderlands; /x/ is probably replete with girls. Then there are these "alpha" women, the sorts who notice a spruce, a well groomed man, probably discerns that as an indication of a well being, and then acts, approaches this man with a sole reason to submit to his needs. But these still are always on a endeavor to look themselves unique. Why?

I was going to say "because women are attention whores and men are simply objectively better than women" but then I realized that if I were to post that, I would have to give consideration as to whether I really believed it or not, and make an attempt to reconcile my belief that all peoples are fundamentally equal with my secret deeply entrenched misogyny.
And that's far too much work, so I'm just not going to say anything.

OP here

Stop derailing the thread

>> No.5421397

Why is it that if someone uses a trip the chances of them having something interesting / funny / witty / correct / on-topic to say quickly approaches zero? It's almost a law of nature.

Why do these people feel the need to construct an online identity, or worse yet why do they think anyone gives a shit about their faggy little online identity? Are they not given enough attention in real life so they come here and roleplay in order to escape reality? Are tripfags the loser Second Lifers of 4chan?

In an attempt to answer your question seriously and reconcile my beliefs I'd say that while I haven't seen any data on the actual ratio of supposed male/female trips it does seem to lean in favor of supposed females, of whom also do seem more inclined to carve an image of uniqueness by exhibiting some defining trait.
The simple truth is that revealing or hinting that you're a female on virtually any internet community will get you scores of attention, and this can be amplified by establishing an identity so that your persona can be given further attention and discussed and debated about and argued over. The fact that you posted a thread regarding this issue exemplifies this perfectly.
Lots of people like attention; like to be recognized, replied to, talked about, and argued over. It's a small slice of fame in an otherwise mundane existence. Therefore it's easy for me to see why someone would do this. Why females may be (if they indeed actually are) more predisposed to pursuing this is subject to speculation, and answers with any real validity aren't likely to be found on a forum such as this.
On a side note, I'd be interested to see how many posters/trips pretend to be female just for the huge boost in attention.

I daresay this is the most carefully reasoned response you're going to get to your questions. Ya satisfied?

Feminister was a great trip of recent times. She could make a long, adequate response. Mainly in Stirner threads, though, but nonetheless good posts.
Unfortunate that she got too much attention from insecure autists that couldn't refute anything she said, only scream that she is a trip and make an edgy remark. However, she/he clearly had some problems of her own, but for me it seemed just a minor nuisance, this being an adolescence kawaii anime, alternative music platitude and Hitler appreciation site.
