Why are there so many hardbodies at Barnes and Noble's book store?
I don't even know any males that read books and I don't interact with females, but observation and the internet would lead me to believe that normiewomen are even more illiterate and vapid than men. I imagined that any girls I see at a bookstore would be annoying high school debate team types or big Tumblristas with strange greasy haircuts. Seeing all these tight sexy teens and their equally hot moms in yoga pants is giving me a reality check.
What gives?
And don't give me some incel answer like they just read books to show off to Chad. Chad is a chimp. He doesn't care about shit like books. Obviously people don't buy books just to show off or to say they read them. I don't live in some weird metro area where people are always flaunting how cultured they are.

once again robot categorical theory displays itself as being an insufficient paradigm for serious enquiry.

What books are they buying?

Yes they do.
If you're posting on /lit/ chances are you do the same.

I've got two theories:
>most men who read are shut-ins and order books
or
>the education system pushes more women than men into literature
just guesses though.

Bookstores market YA and romance novels for women. I've gone there looking for some mildly obscure philosophy books before and they didn't have them at all. Their in-house translations are trash, they are overpriced, and they often don't have quality academic (Oxford) texts. Better to go to a more niche place that actually carries what I want or to stick to Amazon

It's a good place to hang out. Most Barnes and Nobles have a starbucks, and rich girls like that.
