I would fucking hate to know somebody like the Gilmore Girls.
But for all the shit /lit/ talks about women in general, they read more books in the United States than men. Just look for the ones that aren't all YA fiction, there's actually a lot more of them than men.

Pretty sure they want to make it look like she's read Ulysses, but that's actually Stuart Gilbert's study of Ulysses, not Ulysses.

I can never tell if people like this are being sincere or are just literarily posing. Probably the latter, but it's still really fucking cute god dayum

If you actually believe any person reads drunk, flushed, sitting awkwardly on a table while giving others wine, while mouth-breathing, then you're absolutely right. That's the only way I read.

They are around. Just go to a place where people read frequently and stay there for hours a day a couple of days in a row. B&N, local book stores, coffee shops, campuses, etc.

If you've already done this in your town and did not see any girls there after a couple of days, go to a bigger city and do it again.

The English department has the most ridiculous ratio of women to men, probably about 9:1 but unfortunately about 8.5/9 are hideous. It's rather strange actually.

Why are almost all of the female engineers so hot? What's up with that?

>>6610805

and OP what are you talking about? Rory Gilmore is clearly depicted in the show as an unusual case and that show came out maybe 15 years ago. Are you suggesting things have changed in that brief period?
