What are some classic male novels?
Also, why aren't there any novels for men today?
because women read more than men today, and identity politics affiliates books market better than literature today
because men are plebs these days
and cormac is sorta manly, even if he's genre fiction tier

Because that would be racist, sexist and transphobic, anon.

novels targeted towards men, how about the entire genres of scifi, fantasy, crime, techno thriller, westerns.
in terms of literature and classic novels pretty much the entire /lit/ meme canon would be considered a "male novel' by people who would ever use that term

No more Mr Nice Guy
holy shit that is a great cover.
To answer your second question though, in modern society it is actually considered offensive to be a male, especially a white male. They literally don't market things to white men anymore because there would be a media out lash. Don't know how the previous generations have let this happen.

Look at the Bernie Sanders add, man. The people who appear in it? Predominantly white. The music in it? Made by white for, for white men. Who does it advertise? A white male.
Gates of Fire is a real good one.
But just a reminder to everyone: if you're not strong, you ain't a man in my book.

Come on man, have you not read The Border Trilogy?

Have you read Thucydides? I've heard it's pretty brutal.

Read the Melian Dialogue, it`s fairly short and is a great example of the writing which would let you know if you`d like to read the rest.
Men prefer video games.

It's pretty heavily misunderstood, though. Thucydides' point was to show how morally bankrupt Athens was due to being a democracy.
>>7614341
Which is why it`s a great sample because it illustrates concisely the Athenian Empires barbarism (lol) throughout the war.
>>7614353
Sparta was pretty magnanimous throughout though (especially to Athens)
>>7614358
That`s why the Gods chose them as victors ;)

Uh, what do women read then? Romance, erotic, self-help, diet books, religious, and high school literature?
Seems REALLY boring in comparison, but that's probably because I'm a man. A better question to ask is "what kind of literature do women in general actually like?"

Our country is still around 70% white. It's not favoring whites, it's just showing a reflection of what most of America actually looks like. I'm a Hispanic from a border town with 98% hispanics, and like 1.5% natives. When I first left town, I was culture shocked to meet so many white, black and Asian people because I was so insulated. Likewise, Bernie comes from Vermont, where it's like 98% white.
This isn't a bad thing, it's just the way things are.
