>Are there any books about having redpilled truths stuck in your mind and constantly validated through real life observations?
Pic related might qualify. It's about a dude in a terrible marriage, but terrified of finally getting a divorce because of how fucked-over he'd get in divorce court. Meets people who have been through the wringer, people with potential strategies no how to avoid getting fucked-over, and the ending is pretty fucking intense. Won't give away anything beyond that. Been told by a fellow in his 50s who's been there and done that, that it brought back some bad memories. It was a compliment, and I took it as such, as unfortunate as it is. Yeah, it's my book, I'm shilling, don't care. The novella is quite cheap for both the ebook version and paperback. Nobody has yet bought the paperback version.

I'm a progressive feminist but also I agree with you a lot.

>>9521752

Are there any books on how all of those things you just stated are opinions and how liable to change and volatile real life situations are and how people who try to perpetuate power by lies are skating on extremely thin ice?

Any good books on scandals? Preferably corporate?

I feel you man, I really do, but to do this you'd need to change the whole species manner of reproduction. So long as there's one cock willing to let pussy achieve by proxy things will be the same in the world.

All we can do is not perpetuate it individually. But damn is it hard when girls are displaying themselves constantly and won't even admit to it.

The secret is you don't need to like the same stuff as your co-workers, if you're pleasant, friendly and extroverted they will want to talk to you and you'll get ribbed for not knowing basic stuff. But, if you've properly befriended them, they'll introduce you to it and the problem will be resolved. There isn't a grand conspiracy, it just sucks to be introverted in a culture which requires extroversion. You mention sucking at small talk and I know it's hard but if you practise you'll get better.

I wish some talented /lit/erati could turn this into a compelling novel because it would be the literary work of the millennium

your whole post is beyond based btw

I can't say what's going on in most women's heads, but the way feminism is written about and the FEW women I've talked to frankly basically never mention the fact that all men basically want female approval and it has nothing to do with seeing women as lesser than them but in a perverse way much more

and every "bad thing" men do to women is a reaction to not being able to attain this

>>9522579
It's not only female approval you want, it's male approval too. Everyone wants to be loved. Since it's something obvious, they probably didn't feel like they needed to state it.

>>9522595
it isn't like that though. if people kept the thought "everyone wants to be loved" in their heads, they would act completely differently.

feminism doesn't start with the thought that men want to be loved by women but that men are evil (indifferent to women's suffering).

The smartest Guys in the Room

>>9522614
Would they act differently, as in start being very nice to everyone else? You can't be very nice to everyone. You just stay polite with everyone and very nice to those closest to you, which is the current global state of mind

Feminism starts with the thought that patriarchy has always skewed the cultural balance in favor of men, and that women could become powerful if that balance was changed. The belief that all men are evil is just a vocal minority of feminism, and feminism is made of dozens of different, sometimes opposite, schools of thought

>>9522146
It doesn't make me feel good that I've had these same thoughts
I thought your post would get shitted on based on the observation that /lit/ gets all bitchy when someone says stuff like this
I don't know if all these stuff was common "knowledge" of men before the feminism started to show
I really would like to get this stuff out of my mind because I can't really interact with women anymore without feeling this shit in the back of my mind, I try to tell myself this is all internet brainwashing but sometimes is just too evident in real life
I don't think women are inferior to men, but society, the way they are raised, maybe, is what turns them into really weird beings
Either way, any of this being true of false, I'm fucked

>>9522662
it's the struggle as old as time m8
I think when the illusions start to dissolve it feels like everything is fucked, but the fact is men have been dealing with this shit whether they knew it or not since we were scarcely more than monkeys

congrats on writing a book, my dude.

Just rape them all, and blame the patriarchy.

Add 'spending so much of your life agonising about being a kissless friendless virgin that you give yourself cancer' and you're pretty much describing Fritz Zorn. I would recommend it.

most of these /r9k/ faggots can be cured by simply getting older and seeing how bad women have it overall, especially ugly women.

Thanks, my dude. It's actually 6, and a 7th is probably roughly a quarter finished. Hoping to try an historical fiction sometime, and I also might give a non-fiction a shot. Something firearms-related sounds like fun.

OP are you the London frogposter?

>>9524715

This. Read it, OP. Mars should be required reading for every angsty shitposter on 4chan. Learn from Zorn's mistakes, don't fall into the trap of nihilistic self pity.

I have had a bourgeois education and all my life I have been well-behaved.

My Twisted World

I would be curious about this theme but from the point of view of an ugly/plain woman. Possibly autistic or emotionally damaged, disconnected from reality. Without a "she gets the guy"or other ridiculous YA cliches.

Any suggestions?

The internet (well, maybe just 4chan) tends to have the unrealistic expectation that women should offer intellectual depth and great conversation. They never will but they're very good at providing emotional support. I guess it's why their ideas always come across like emotional reactions and why shit like feminism doesn't seem coherent half the time. Honestly, being with and around women is much easier when you don't expect them to be intelligent in a cold and rational way.
