Why is my literature course 95% women?

Because men are wasting their times measuring their dicks with hard sciences ruler.

Because you have entered the secret inner sanctuary of audience pussy, the supplest and easiest prey known to man.

All you must do now is exploit the innate gender disparity between yourself and the female students, displaying your own superior male prose and male ability to write something that isn't trite, adolescent vampire romance, and you will be swimming in pussy. The kind of pussy that a true literary genius needs to inspire him to write great things.

You tread in the wake of DFW and John Green. Once they inhabited this same sanctuary and feasted on another generation of audience pussy, and now they live like kings, with eager audience pussy delivered to their door every day. All you have to do is follow their footsteps. Good luck.

I posted that, I'm a man, and I believe it. I can only speak from experience, but at every school I've been to, at every level, this was demonstrably the case. With guys there's a huge gap: the majority are barely literate, but there is a small concentration who are very intelligent and educated. Women, however, aren't as extreme. They're nearly all of around average intelligence and education, which puts them above the majority of men, who are just outright stupid and anti-intellectual, more concerned with sports, video games, drugs and making money than reading and learning.

Hey, not against you, but why do you people respond to misogyny with virgin-shaming? It's one of the facets of modern day "feminist" rhetoric, of shaming sexually inexperienced men, that really ruins it for me. I mean, it seems contradictory that slut-shaming is bad, but virgin-shaming is good since there's an assumption that virgins are that way because they don't respect women, when in fact it's most often due to a range of social/psychological issues. Conversely, there are many men who hate women who have tremendous sexual experience.

'social rules' doesn't factor into it, but you're obviously a pseud so we can ignore that part. The first part is just retard talk. You're saying that if a scantily clad baby gets raped that means that all scantily clad babies are whores who are asking for it.

Can you into reading comprehension? There is no such thing as "less emotional" because everyone is always very emotional all the time, ever. Your thoughts are emotions. The way you reason is driven by emotions. Every single act, every single thing you've ever thought of has been the product of your own emotions. Except, of course, if you have ASPD or are a mathematician doing a proof, in which case there are no emotions involved at all. But it's idiotic to draw any comparison about emotions or any distinction between "reason" (whatever that means) and emotions.

Nationality is a factor that could influence the output of a model, that doesn't mean a general trend is absent.

Just because such trends exist doesn't mean you are pointing out the right ones. For instance most assumptions /r9k/tards make about "western women" ia blatantly false and only concern a tiny subset of American white upper-middle-class girls in their 20's but obviously these people never leave their basement and never travel, what with being American and all, so they think their sample represents all the group.

Isn't there something like Ritalin wherever you live? That's not too expensive around here and most of my med and law studying friends use it.
Coke is shit for learning too, anyway. You'd have to take way too much.

Britbong here, studying law too. My man only does coke, MDMA and weed. I've asked around for Ritalin before because I heard it does wonders but have never found any. I'm guessing it's not really a think you can buy online outside of the deep web

I don't think so, no. I have a friend who got Ritalin from his doc (cause he needed it as a kid, had some sorta attention span BS going on) and he sells it around the campus.
Apart from that, no idea where you'd buy it normally, I assumed a good dealer might just have it.

I'm studying french literature in University (I'm Quebecer), and it's the same thing here ; girls make up maybe 90% of studients in my programme. That is a little bit annoying, because we cannot have the same kind of discution with girls than with other males. And because there are a bunch of girls, many guys don't wanna study in this domain : they probably think that it's a domain for girl and fagget (and it's not false in reality).

PS : but the worst thing ; I don't have fucked yet one girl in my course lol.... fucking loser....

As long as the woman isn't a fat slob she can always find a man to provide for her. Even the fat slobs can usually find a man.

Then women bitch about "unequal pay" because they got worthless degrees while men went off to have actually productive careers.
