There are too many fags, really.

Why is this board filled with fags? Reading books won't make your dad any less disappointed.

>>8811509
Byron was more homo than Wilde but people somehow forget it

>>8811521
Liberals utterly BTFO

>>8811521
It's a question for another thread thread really but my theory is that a lot of fags nowadays cling to anything vaguely intellectual in reaction to the trashy and vacuous abomination that is mainstream gay culture.

>>8811521
yo seriously. I noticed so many homos on this board. it's so awkward. I feel so uncomfortable around the mentally ill. there is a boy who grew his hair out and where's a bit of make up that works at star bucks. he's not passable at all. no tits. no ass. man game but the name tag says rachel. all the customers get so awkward with this dude it's hilarious. I can't get any reading done when he works. just watching there reactions to being served. most men can't even look him in the eyes. hilarious.

>>8811552
You talk like a nigga. I feel so uncomfortable around the mentally ill. Get lost.

Quality discourse on /lit/ tonight.

Can we to the OP topic, folks? An LGBT category for the sticky would be worth having.

>>8811615
Yeah, but how many people actually check the sticky?

>>8811621
I did. the sticky actually has a lot of books that never get mentioned here. it's great. good sticky.

Alright I'm going to suggest these for trans-lit:

>Orlando by Virginia Woolf
>Myra Breckinridge by Gore Vidal
>Breakfast on Pluto by Patrick McCabe
>And maybe An Anglo-American Alliance by Gregory Casparian

Any others?

>>8811509
Being gay/LGBT is the epitome of everything lame, PC and ZOG approved. You know what's truly edgy? Daring to be White, Straight and Proud on this day and age. Generation Z is probably the most pozzed generation in history. The numales and Lgbtbbqwtf thingamajigs at school are so obviously mentally ill, the sort of people that wouldn't survive in the wild just a generation ago. I blame anime and xenoestrogens. Join the resistance.

Yugioh Mishima

>>8811677
>believes in cultural marxism in a society owned by capitalists

Some homo shit that gets mentioned every now and then on /lit/:

>Maurice, by E. M. Forster
>Confessions of a Mask, by Yukio Mishima
>The Confusions of Young Törless, by Robert Musil
>Death in Venice, by Thomas Mann
>The City and the Pillar, by Gore Vidal

>>8811677
>doing anything political
Rookie move, drone.

>>8811677
you make me want to kill myself. i don't even care about your opinion, its just that you write like you're mentally disabled. you're bitching about modern culture yet you write like a 14 year old.i really hope you have some kind of experience that makes you think like an adult.

>>8811712
Stay focused and contribute books, retard.

>>8811708
Obligatory Sappho, too

>>8811677
it's so true. how do we end straight white male oppression?

Ones I read in my teens:

Les amities particulieres (Roger Peyrefitte)
Sandel (Angus Stewart)
Now and Then (William Corlett)

Would actually be interested in a chart of this genre

did any of you gays watch the movie Moonlight? I saw it opening night with my friend and my gf (sry) and it was fucking great. it makes me want to write a thread about how you can tell a great story that's interesting even if it's just one about oppression which most people appear to be repulsed by on here.

>>8811509
The Mirror of Love is pretty nice; it's basically the entire history of gayness in one long poem.

>While life endures we'll love,
>and afterwards, if what they say is true,
>I'll be refused a Heaven
>crammed with popes, policemen, >fundamentalists,
>and burn instead,
>quite happily,
>with Sappho, Michelangelo
>and you, my love.

>I'd burn throughout eternity
>with you.

>>8811748
This has got to be the most anaemic, most pathetic post I've seen this month.

>>8811712
>you make me want to kill myself

Makes sense, you know, with the LGBT suicide rate being like 10x that of normal people

>join the resistance

Hold on, I'm almost there. All I've gotta do is gain 200 pounds, regain my virginity, stop showering for a month, and move back into my parents basement to scream at people on anime websites. That will surely end decades of social change and bring back the good old days of genocide and oppression.

This board is so unintentionally hilarious lmao you idiots were indoctrinated online so easily with fucking memes appealing to your loser need for social identity.

>>8812875
>taking my post seriously
>trying to play off your anger by acting like you don't care
I don't care if you suck dick, anon.

I'd say Tonio Kröger as well

Oppression is a slave morality PC Marxist buzzword. The weak are supposed to fear the strong. Law of the jungle bro

>>8811527
Probably because when you fuck your sister how many young Greek asses you split becomes background noise.

>>8811691
The Marxists went cultural. They're all about seizing academia and the media and use it to force their own vision of what can and can't be said. And it's wor

>>8813745
yes, all those people in the media who aren't in it for their personal material gains in capital...

>>8812875
TRIGGERED

>>8813745
No. See, another person conflating Marxism with globalism (and as an extension capitalism). Does not compute. Corporations still run the show, not the state. So tell me again how Marxists have won?
