Reading Austen and the Brontës won’t give you an immediate "hookup" advantage, but it will significantly improve your romantic competence.
Here is the breakdown:

>Emotional Intelligence: These authors provide a blueprint for how women think and feel. Understanding these nuances makes you a much more effective communicator.

>The "Darcy" Archetype: Austen’s Mr. Darcy is the gold standard for many. He proves that being a man of character, who listens and admits when he’s wrong, is more attractive than being a "bad boy."

>Superior Banter: Reading Austen helps you move past boring small talk into witty, challenging, and playful conversation—a major "green flag."

>Cultural Signaling: Carrying a Brontë novel is a massive "status signal." It suggests you are patient, intellectual, and comfortable enough in your masculinity to value female-centric stories.

The Bottom Line: It won't work like a magic spell, but it transforms you into a man who is higher-value and more interesting to talk to.

Will it also make my chin bigger, my jaw stronger and more pronounced, my body taller and more muscular and my cock bigger since those things are far more important in the modern dating market

Or women are more like Clarice Lispector, that is to say, schizo babbling creatures of pure emotion forever trapped in a "me me me" cycle

Narcisistic women arent the norm, you know

They are just opinions and not backed by any data or scientific research.

Read A Billion Wicked Thoughts if you want to actually learn how women and men think and it's backed by neuroscience.

I don't read women authors to get women, I don't read anything to get women.

Women do like banter a lot but unless they're educated they won't appreciate the understated English-gentry sort of banter.

I read Swamplandia by Karen Russell about ten years ago. It was alright as I recall.

Also want to add it's weird that she was a finalist for the Pulitzer in a year when they decided to give no one the award and then she just disappeared completely

Theyre literally backed by data. Its what the AI told me.

Why are more people not freaking out about this? This is the kind of shit that really makes you believe in the Illuminati.

That was a weird year too. The other finalists were Train Dreams by Denis Johnson, which was technically published a decade before in a magazine but only published as a book that year, and The Pale King, which was basically a posthumously released draft of an unfinished book. I haven't read The Pale King yet but I have read Swamplandia! and Train Dreams and I feel Russell was robbed. Literally their one job is to award a prize, and they were too chicken to make a decision. I think Swamplandia! deserved it but literally ANY decision would have been better than no decision.

I recommend this one

When people talk about "reading female authors" they aren't talking about Austen and Brontë.
