Why do women generally only read fiction?
Why do men seem to have more eclectic tastes than women?
Why have I never met a woman who has ever read any philosophical works?
Why have I never met a woman who knew who Plato or Aristotle were?

why /lit/ ?

everyone generally only reads fiction.
They don't.
Because you don't talk to many women.
You're just outright lying on this last one.

because men are more boring :p

I've never actually met a woman who actually reads books.

And no I don't count reading trash to be serious reading. It doesn't count.

You just don't know very many women, I think. Even the women I know who don't read and really quite vapid would probably know who they are.

You know anon, I really wish I was lying on the last one. You can believe whatever you want about the speaking to women part, but the last one I am seriously not kidding about.

I agree with the other anons. You don't know many women. You also suffer from confirmation bias. According to PISA results, girls read more and comprehend better than boys.

One of the most important qualities a girl can have is the ability to hold an interesting conversation with you. Instead of looking for someone who is already into those things, find someone who is capable of being into those things and help her grow. Also, remember that every girl doesn't have an OkCupid profile. The rest are on Plenty of Fish.

This is what I'm talking about. In every tested country except S. Korea, I think, they rate better in comprehension.

Personally, the majority of girls who I've known bring up something they read in high school, and wouldn't be interested in philosophy.

Actually, no, that's just most people in general.
