It's not just Nietzsche buddy. Philosophy as a whole.

Yeah this

Yes, I knew several girls in my existentialism class. I assume some of them must have done at least one of the readings when we read Beyond Good and Evil.

Russian girls do read Nietzche and existentialist stuff. (no im not russian nor a girl.)

Any high-school female English teacher worth their salt or female college professor in literature or philosophy (definitely philosophy of course) has probably read them. I remember a high-school English teacher who referenced Nietzsche once or twice. It wasn't an overwhelming experience to know she had read Nietzsche.

Also this. Any woman seriously interested in literature and/or philosophy will probably read Nietzsche eventually, but the problem is finding women seriously interested in women or philosophy; and as i said, this is likely to just be well-educated, well-off female teachers/professors who can and want to devote their time to becoming literate in Western literary/philosophical culture, through the process of which you have to read Nietzsche at one point or another.

Philosophy isn't for women.

>Women are considered deep - why? Because one can never discover any bottom to them. Women are not even shallow.

The people who take him seriously are mostly male, I would guess that more women have encountered his writing than men though given the gender divide in college where humanities are mostly female fields and sciences are mostly male.

I'm aquainted with a girl who I saw reading Nietzsche at our local cafe before we met. I wouldnt say we are friends but we small talk occasionally, she is pretty left-wing in her values but thats ok she is a uni student.
