I've read numerious, the only ones I liked where literal childrens and YA literature like Burnett, Broente, Christie, Alcott and Trott. And maybe some books on sewing and cooking like Davidis and one biography of Humboldt - which still made a greater point on socio-cultural stuff in his bio than hard facts. On any other subject the female choice is always inferiour when compared with a male counterpart. As is the natural way human interests fall.

Stop trying to shilll internalized sexism, like a retard. True stength means to accept which you can't change and concentrate on those which can be altert. Human nature isn't part of the later and trying to make women into mans equals only devalues their inert qualities as would be vice versa, trying to meme mens as experts on child birth and rearing, outside on pure rational fact sheets.

Can, but more likely than not will never be. Do I need to post the gender bell curve? Let me. Plus reproduction prevents female from truly engaging a subject and no sane woman at 40 years of age will be glad to have picked a job instea of a family (see suicide statistics).

Nah, I consider most modern women to be a shame to my sex, tho mostly due to indoctrination. Lemmy guess, you're the hedonist from yeterday?

The crux of most feminist theory revolves of such ad hominems toward men as "inferior" without bases. They're core claim on this is that they can exclusively produce children, but that statement gets equalized by the fact that they require the male's seed for that gift.

From a practical perspective, look at how feminization has lead to the masculinization of women: in their behavior, job selection, identity, rights etc. The whole history of feminism has been a move to not expand and embrace the femininity of females, but to brute force their masculinity on par with males.

Rather than embracing the value of being a good mother (something exclusive to women), they have tarnished it as a derogation relative to being a successful career business woman.

The point of feminism is having freedom to choose one’s relationship with femininity for themselves rather than be forced into it. Men have been allowed a spectrum of masculine expression for centuries and women have not, it’s literally that simple.

Mens spectrum has been as much restricted as that of females. Try becoming a male midwife or even kindergarden teacher and wait for the acusations of pedophilia or pervertism. Both sexes had their role and were more succefull and happy than they are today. Feminism also never meant the freedom of choice, otherwise feminists wouldn't degrade the role of motherhood as much as they do. Feminism was a marketing scheme to get more people in the workforce to squeeze wages down and give the state a bigger indoctrination spectrum (see the child rearing system in the sobjet union or eastern germany).

You don't even need to pursue a particularly unmasculine role, just failing at a typically masculine role is already enough to make men miserable. Men kill themselves way more and it's often because they're undesirable to women, can't provide for their families or some other general failure at living up to the male role.

Indeed. Corono meme killed hundreds of good men after they found themself unable to provid, which still and always will mean social shunning, where suicide is the more honorable exit. But women generally can't fathom this, as our world is so much easier in that regard. But it's not like any of thoe feminists want to talk about male suicides.

You’re very blatantly using a narrow scope of “feminism” and probably attributing it to what you see of whit women on twitter. Read Audre Lorde.

Hardly, look at the history of poetry for example. You can be as soft an effeminate as Wordsworth or as masculine as Tennyson. You can be William Carlos Williams or Wallace Stevens, Edmund Spenser or John Milton, etc. etc. Meanwhile women were criticized for their first steps outside of “traditional femininity”. You don’t have to be a feminist to just trace the history of women’s expression juxtaposed with men.

What? Lorde is brilliant man, one of those things you kinda have to step out of your comfort zone to enjoy if you’re generally masculine.

There are far fewer of quality, not just because they were prevented from engaging intellectually for centuries (Which is a factor), it’s also because any kind of exceptionalism whether it by physical, financial, intellectual or influential sources conveys an advantage to attract mates, men compete for women not the other way around (this is also why a lot of successful female writers were lesbians or bi) and so men are more likely to show exceptionalism because they might need to in order to reproduce. /lit/‘s attitude is a response to the modern opinion that women are just as likely to be exceptional in writing as men, they aren’t, the most famous female philosopher ever may be Ayn Rand, imagine if the most famous male philosopher was Lacan, it would be embarrassing to say it represented lots of exceptionalism.

>To truly appreciate how Tao Lin changed Megan Boyle's vagina, one must appreciate the incredible endurance and stamina Lin brings to the bedroom. Where average males deliver a hundred to two hundred thrusts per copulation, Tao Lin exceeds 10,000 in around a half hour period. Megan Boyle's beef never had a chance. Her dainty veal slices were transformed by the hot crucible of Lin's locomotive hips pummeling and drubbing and smashing her beef until it grew as swollen and gnarled as a wrestler's ear. Lin must have marveled over time as he watched her beef blossom with each subsequent sexcapade until Megan was bashful about shorts and skirts and came to prefer yoga pants, which allowed her to tape and tuck her vajayjay jerky. Like an Earth boring machine grinding bedrock, Lin bored into Boyle to free her from herself, to give her the aesthetic charms of a wounded war veteran. Megan would grow to love her beef, to be proud of it. She liked that Tao had made the beef, that it was his muscular jackhammering that turned her bushy peach into a frizzy-headed split pomegranate
