It's a shame that females are just too stupid for your big brain, OP!

It's hard being as smart as you, OP, isn't it?

>> No.6999373

as much as I like a good round of woman-bashing, most men you talk to would say the same thing

except they probably wouldn't even know enough to suggest possible books like the girl in your scenario did

Special snowflake syndrome yet again in effect.

You think you're unique because you know what Ulysses is and have Wikipedia tier knowledge of modernism?

Smh

Damn. This has actually happened to me. Except I wasn't dumb enough to try to explain Modernism.

Nah, you misunderestimate me, OP. From that Freudian slip I'd know immediately that this was the 21st century incarnation of Molly Bloom, and of course I'd make no attempt to weigh her circuitous rivermind down with talk of Modernism and suchlike. Instead, I would immediately inquire as to the melonous status of her mellow yellow smellonous rumpy hemispheres and furrow, and ask of I might be permitted just the briefest osculation of said rumpy hemispheres and furrow.

Pick a man at random on the street and ask him what the last book he read was. I promise you the results will be even worse. Most of them won't even remember. And WTF does Ulysses have to do with romance? I read the damn book, and it never occurred to me to try to discuss it with anyone outside of class, let alone with a gf. I can just see your dating ad: "I want a hot blonde girl with big tits who does anal and will discuss Modernism with me, but she can't know more than me!"
