I'm a dude and not even one of those male feminist weirdos, but how does this have anything to do with anything? it would seem that being an author would select for ugly people of either sex, given the self-imposed hermeticism of the profession. but more to the point, all I care about is how well they write. if you're selecting authors based on looks, I've got some bad news for you: there's only like five dudes worth anything to look at

What's wrong with wanting to enjoy some qtp2ties, anon?

But what's the point in reading something written by someone you wouldn't have sex with?

We're all in agreement that Camus is the handsomest male author, right?

>this guy

Of course I don't give a shit about what author look like. Or where they're from or what they fucking smell like for that matter.

I just wanted to see some literary pussy that I would be inclined to slide in and out of. The law of averages suggest that there must be some.

Woolf was pretty ugly, man. There are a few flattering b&w profile shots out there, but overall 4/10 would not bang except to hopefully absorb some of her literary talent.

I know that confused feel, bro. Mishima himself was a fan of manly men. Particularly their hairy armpits.
