After I made a series of very successful posts in the other thread that is still active on this board in which I received eight (You)s, I was intrigued enough to read her book - acquired illegally of course. It's shit. It's like Story of My Life by Jay McInerney where the main appeal is meant to be the shenanigans of some spoiled LA / New York cuntish little harlot, but Jay McInerney is writing from the perspective of his ex-gf, so her cocaine-propelled narcissism is treated with enough distance that it isn't just outright obnoxious. This bargain bin bint isn't unique or intelligent enough for her experiences and observations to be any different to the kinds of ramblings found on literally any teen girl's blog. In fact, she demonstrates what's so pathetic about these kinds of girls: the traumas they think are so agonising, such as awkward sexual encounters and existential horror at a lack of meaning, are lukewarm when compared to real human suffering, but they are just about semi self aware enough that their fumblings aren't interesting that they also package it as a fashionable prop they could take or leave depending on whether their audience cares that their Uncle Tony shoved his thumb in their ass when they were thirteen years old. They're psychologically incoherent messes, but that, in their mind, is part of the fun as they sing along to I Love It by Icona Pop. Their only appeal is their sex appeal and that's the only reason anyone ever pretends to take these idiots seriously. How'd this dumpy cunt get published when she isn't that pretty? She's Jewish. I give this book one thumbs up. On the off chance that Honor Levy searches her name on the archive, quite likely given her monumental narcissism, I'd just like to say to you, Honor, on a personal note, you're like a female book world version of Jonah Hill, untalented and ugly but well-connected, destined to become a laughingstock, which is what's happening in these threads.

>the traumas they think are so agonising, such as awkward sexual encounters and existential horror at a lack of meaning, are lukewarm when compared to real human suffering
This is the crux of woman's writing, imo. I'm not saying women don't suffer but there just seems to be a categorical difference between male and female suffering and their respective human condition. You can just tell that what a woman writes as trials and suffering just doesn't really capture it fully. At least from modern women i find this to be the case

i don't like women who carry purses. i think this thot carries them knowing full well there's something classist/tacky/performatively feminine in the bad sense about it. a hipster playing crass bourgeois cunt. embracing her own jewyness (not the same as jewishness) as a sort of "poptimist" move
>>
>>24746832
Most women carry purses. It's not a statement.

>>24746832

>>24746840
it can only be a statement.

>>24746843
look, i don't care deeply about this. i'm just saying. let's not pretend small details cannot speak volumes (apud fussell, bourdieu et al). a stupid woman with nail extensions and collagen lips is just being her natural self. this is different
>>
>>24746884
A statement that they need to carry makeup and a smaller purse shaped wallet that actually holds the necessary things likes keys money and cards and some snacks and a mirror and one and a half pounds of change that isn't in the smaller wallet but loose in many different pockets of the purse and some pens and some coupons for starbucks and two phones one that doesn't work anymore and a nail filer and a really small pair of scissors out in public for some reason.
>>
>>24746891
yeah, that's what pockets are for (the ones in your pants)
>>
>>24746815
Is it 'literally worse' in some essential, magnificent sense where if someone's Uncle Tony shoves his thumb up them they are therefore cursed but also blessed in ways unfathomable to the unthumbed who can never comprehend the complexities inflicted on and revealed to them by Uncle Tony's probing digit? They have felt too much, they have seen too much. Their comments about the commodification inherent in capitalism are deeper and more insightful because they experienced first hand their asshole commodified by Uncle Tony's capitalistic thumb. Their tears when Bambi's mother is shot are especially poignant and meaningful because they are the tears of someone whose innocence was also shot right in front of them when their asshole was violated prematurely and nonconsensually by that awful huntsman Uncle Tony. That's what a lot of the discourse around 'trauma' amounts to: an attention-seeking, grandstanding posture. I am not denying there are people whose minds break under pressure or that there are certain events where that pressure is greatest, but it cannot be denied that there is a category of young woman who will not shut up going on about her traumas or alluding to them as a way to seek attention or to position themselves as having something important to say. It's almost always middle class or upper middle class white women who've not really struggled, who, in fact, are indulged and pampered more than any other group in history. They go on and on about their traumas because people listen and pretend to care and the reason people listen and pretend to care is because they want to fuck them. The reality is that we've all had our asses thumbed by Uncle Tony in one way or another, some worse than others and it's usually the ones who received the gentlest thumbing who receive the greatest share of pity.
>>
>>24746896
That is way too much for pockets. I already need a small leather belt to carry my pocket notebook, phone, and my wallet without them falling. I'd need a truck belt for all that.
>>
> exact demographic that gets astroturfed by feminist publishing industry
> what’s your excuse?
>>
>>24746899
Yeah I agree with most of this, and the ritualistic flaunting of trauma is obnoxious, mostly seen amongst the demographics you describe, but it also is worth taking seriously since things like molestation usually create a prison of the mind and have lifelong consequences. It's a shame that people then use it as a cudgel or badge of honor or excuse for demonic behavior though instead of just attempting to treat it and navigate it responsibly. I also agree we're living in a time where even minor experiences of discomfort common to everyone become central aspects of people's overt identity because they're so coddled that there's simply nothing else to talk about

I'm interested in reading what young women have to say because I'm interested in sleeping with them.

Most young men don't have much to say either, but I'm less interested in sleeping with them, so it's harder to get published.

Very rarely will someone young write anything worth reading. What experience have they had to put into their writing? It's mainly just romance fantasies and shitty poems from women idealising their life as a lover and writer getting published.

I've picked up enough poetry books written by young women (35 and below) to know the problem is real. One poem is "my grandma died and I was sad", the other one is "I have sex but don't feel connected", and the next is "I looked in the mirror and didn't feel pretty". But I wouldn't go as far as saying it has something to do with the range of experiences and emotions women can go through, nor with whether they suffer more or less than men. Some of the most soul touching novels and poems I've read were written by women. Many of them also addressed sexuality, which isn't a problem in itself. The biggest issue is the oppressive volume of published content where the material doesn't go beyond the author's banal feelings.

But I insist, as I have pointed out in other threads where this situation has been discussed, that this says less about the authors than it does about the readers. Publishers run for profit and they can't make money if they don't cater to the consumers' demands. Men don't buy books anymore, and the major reading demographic are uninteresting women looking for lowbrow books that will validate their feelings. "My Tinder date ghosted me" might sound completely retarded to us but it's a common occurence in the modern young woman's experience and there are just too many bland women who'd rather read about it than anything deeper or more meaningful. They get recommended on booktok, book clubs and by word of mouth between like-minded girls. They sell.

And I honestly think that is perfectly acceptable. We can't blame people for liking slop or expect everyone to be into Maupassant. We feel a natural disgust when we read books women write about their sexual frustrations in the same way any woman will get the ick if they watch two episodes of some harem anime. There should be a veil keeping men and women from each other's private thoughts and fantasies for all of our sakes. But at the end of the day, that's what those books are. The MCU, the McDonald's, the harem anime of literature. And much like those three aren't going away any time soon and aren't responsible for killing Western art, fine dining or Japanese art, we'll have to learn to live with chicklit and instead focus on why the demand for good books is so insignificant.

Also she's cute.

You're right about publishers and marketing, but there's an important point missing. Female and male reading habits have something to do with IQ distribution - with the majority of women clustering in the middle and men clustering in the extremes. Men read less, but the men who do read tend to expect more from the books they read. The book and art world used to be dominated by intelligent men writing highbrow books enjoyed by the minority of also intelligent men and some women. There was always slop but the slop wasn't considered art. That's what's changed, and while it's arguable it's attributable to capitalism, you'd be suggesting capitalism necessarily leads to corruption and degradation. If a marketer can package slop as art and get a few more thousand sales, well, why not use whatever leverage or bribes to get a review in the New Yorker hailing some woman writing slop about feeling fat and unlovable as groundbreaking and the voice of a generation? That, it seems, is what is happening, and it's that which a lot of guys on this board tend to push back against. I don't think capitalism necessarily has to lead to corruption and degradation. Only if cunts like Honor Levy can get away with the attempt to package them as art which I don't think can because they're so obviously trash.
