Why are all book youtubers either women or gay men?
>>24803066Not all are. But for the most part all serious, intelligent, reading men are too busy reading, writing, or otherwise occupying themselves with endeavours more valuable than what is essentially just a glorified form of attention seeking. The straight, well-read man for the most part, is beyond needing, on such a level, this form of validation; or if he is not beyond it he at least endeavours to be beyond it. The average "book-tuber"'s ultimate reasoning for why they create book centred "content" can be boiled down to:>Oh look at me and my books, I am smart, and I read so much!l Look at all my books I have read, and organised by colour on my many shelves!>Yes they are all romance and genre-fiction, what is wrong with that? Are you an elitist? Imagine caring about what other people read you sick bastard!
generally women read more than men. Not saying theyre neccearily reading high literature, honestly neither men nor women really read that much literature statistically. Most of it is like, slop romance, YA stuff, smut, and so on.To tie this into >>24803279 The majority of guys out there on the internet are not exactly occupying themselves with endeavours more valuable either. Men just prefer different (more visual) slop than women (i.e videogames and porn rather than YA and smut)

>>24803066How about Man Carrying Thing
>>24803066I don't think I've seen a single gay booktuber, but plenty of straights. Maybe it's just your algorithm. A gay algorithm. An algorithm for gays.
I've never seen a booktuber in my life. The whole concept sounds incredibly though, so that's probably why

>>24805129Start with the old testament
>>24805129"We" are not fixing shit, assuming you're an American you're living in an empire that is in the process of dismantling its education system while everyone is increasingly fed various contradictory narratives. and various predatory companies reap the profits off people's short attention spans. You can fix yourself by reading widely, including (especially!) works you generally disagree with. If you do not have the ability to study in a classroom setting, you need to avoid the trap of the autodidact, getting stuck into a self-imposed echo chamber of your own half-cooked ideas.
