Men prefer to watch big screen adaptations whilst women read the books

[Anonymous No.13955569]

>The survey found that being too busy, not enjoying reading and preferring to spend their spare time on the internet means men read fewer books, read more slowly and are less likely to finish them than women.
>In fact, nearly three quarters of men would opt for the film or TV version of a book whereas the same percentage of women were as likely to go for the book itself.

Women read more across the board though. Internet imageboards are perhaps the only literature places that aren't dominated by women.

Yeah man. Just look at all those women who read City of God and War and Peace. There's just so many of them!
Not to mention that reading books doesn't mean shit if you can't understand them past the basic emotional level. Most of the lit chicks I know focus on events rather than ideas when they speak about books.

From the Marie Antoinette and Anne Rice to Twilight and 50 Shades, my mom has always read the book. This is the kind of book they're talking about.

How embarrassing it must be to not treat everyone kindly and with respect. Them, the mind, not what they're created as. Why refuse happiness to anyone, anon? Don't be arrogant, it's not becoming of a cultured person.

You hate homosexuality so much because you're uncomfortable with your own desires. That's okay, I'm sure you'll come to terms with yourself and find a nice boyfriend one day.

I work at a bookstore. Yes, it's true that the majority of our patrons are women. However, in the two years I've worked here the number of women I've witnessed purchase a serious work of philosophy, history, science etc. can be counted with one hand.

There are vastly more moderately intelligent women than moderately intelligent men, yet there are also vastly more highly intelligent men than there are highly intelligent women. Most novels are written by and for midwits, so it is not surprising at all that women should come to dominate literature. Where men excel is in the high arts, avant garde, where you pioneer new forms of thinking, or create and partake in eternal masterpieces.

That's because novels are for women and children... I thought we had been over this already.

Yeah but when its compared women read most the genre chick lit and other type of fiction, what ever that is. Books read by men were about economy, history and politics etc.

Women are actually more witty and more intelligent than men. Butterfly and Nietzsche's Fangirl will come here with some witty remarks and all you guys have in return is "tranny" or "cringe."

Do you know the definition of cope?
It's claiming to be smarter and intelligent than men despite men having built, invented and engineered everything and when it's your chance to build something, at "women's liberation" (lol) prime time, with all the governmental aid in the world, the positive discrimination and every fucking thing being on your side, you still fail to do anything of worth or advance science or technology in anyway.

But you are still smarter because you read 50 shades.
And yet your best rebuttal to anything a man argues is "have sex".

Freud would be proud of this maximum COPE.
