My girlfriend reads, and she remembers the hell of going to a bookclub in high school in the hope of making some friends (she's kind of an introverted, cynical loner) and discovering to her horror that they all read John Green and Manga. Needless to say, she didn't go back. I think she was in her miserable Russian novel phase, and brought along Anna Karenina or something. None of them had heard of it.

She remained a cynical loner.

If she also happens to be attractive, then you've struck gold and should marry her.

She is attractive. Just my type- dark hair, slender but not a skeleton, doesn't dress like a slut (and has never been a slut), not an SJW (and politically aware and balanced- no ideologue). I am well aware I've struck gold.

Because they still can be good readers and contribute as well as males. The fact that an idiot, no matter the gender, is in an "upper division course on Shakespeare" is a problem caused by the educational system that can't properly filter the idiots.

The more 'normie' girls that 4chan and reddit constantly make fun of are the conservative well read ones. It's a vicious cycle because you guys are hellbent on making fun of "basic bitches" then complain about not finding any conservative or intelligent women.

>> No.9048544

>>9048532
Basic bitches are histrionic liberals, what are you on about

The only conservative women are weird daddy's girls or white trash. If a woman doesn't follow the herd, she's probably a lesbian.

you're the one who hasn't read shit of value and is posturing for social acclaim, so if anyone's relying on their tits getting them through life, it's you. let's hope you've D cups, because what i corrected you on is basic. it's not some esoteric knowledge i'm laying on you, you're just not even basic. stwg is a meme about how to start, and unlike what aristophanes' the clouds might have led you believe if you read it, it does not involve solely smelling your own farts.

learn what your words mean before using them. it is not a hard ask on a literature board of all places. get fucking basic if you can't get good, you're a waste of space and have shitty recycled banter. at least a girl would post tits while being wrong.
