Korean radical feminists are complaining about this genius author being overlooked and are saying that men always get attention for their writing skills instead. Personally, I really liked the book.
>>25255766
Thoughts?
>>25255778>ugly woman writes sob story about her vagina>gets published with preference over superior works by men>receives endless undeserved accolades>other toasty roasties bitch endlessly that it for some reason deserves even more recognitionNever read it and never will but I bet I'm right
>>25255766South Korea is shithole with media propaganda machine that's trying to make it look like heaven. The problem is that just like with any propaganda anyone above 90IQ can see through it. For example Kpop is very obviously prostitutes parading on stage, the prostitutes themselves are manufactured - not talented, but beautiful, but through extreme plastic surgeries made to look "beautiful" (not really beautiful, they look fucking weird). Kdrama is similar. It's all soulless and insincere but the producers and government think they can mask it with money.Why am I talking about this shit? Anyone who exposes South Korea for what it is - a shithole so bad that it's going to die out in like 100 years - is not getting spotlight in their media. South Koreans NEVER admit to any mistakes or any setbacks, they shut up and wait until they blow up in their face - then they commit suicide. Well their country and society is one big mistake and they are currently commiting slow suicide.Han Kang especially isn't getting any spotlight becouse she exposed multiple massacres of South Koreans that the South Korean government did in the past and that aren't talked about becouse "South Korea is the GOOD ONE".>>25255795That's not what the book is about. Try again.
>>25255768These niggas say they read then they spout some shit like this revealing they don't read shit. Name the latest 10 male nobel lit prize winners whom any of this shit happened for. Bug brainrotted by kpop wants to pretend to be literate.
>>25255833hope she read this bro
>>25255778Read this only last year and have largely forgotten what’s it about — something about sex, body point and the terrors of patriarchy.
>>25255766I can fix her.
>>25255766Wouldn't it be great if women were born without vocal chords?
>>25255766Korean men status?
>>25255766Yet the rest of the world struggles to name any S. Korean writer apart from her.
>>25255795it's the typical shit>self-insert heroine is good and kind and meek, rebels by starving herself>husband is evil pig korean man, rapes and beats her>other women characters are envious evil stepsister types, torture her out of jealousy>"truly she was... the vegetarian">>25255930korean men have almost completely written off korean women and are just checking out
>>25255766>this book will want to make you give up your life and suddenly become unhappy and hate those who care about youThat doesn't sound like a good book.
>>25255766Korean feminists see the declining population and openly celebrate, saying that Koreans deserve to go completely extinct just because Chad was mean to them. They're hormonal retards and their opinions mean nothing.
>>25256012>toxic book designed to further whittle away at already grim birthrateit does give u an idea why the nobel was awarded it tho
>>25256021I wonder what would happen if we just ran them through meat processors and fed them to Indians?
>>25256025Hmmm...what should I blame the South Korean birthrates on? Maybe the complete over-population and over-crowding? Maybe the extreme cost of living? Maybe the extremely long work-hours? Maybe the shitty education system that keeps you all your childhood in school from 8AM to 10PM? Maybe shitty soulless consumerist culture? Maybe the impending doom from constant threat of nuclear annihilation, global warming and low birthrates?No!It's the books to be blamed. The books and women.
>>25256037koreans are generally crazy, how anyone watches kdramas or listens to kpop and doesn't cringe at the blatant hypocrisy is beyond me, they want everyone swooning over their culture in the same manner that japan is liked, they want the same political relevance as china, i think korea's biggest mistake was allowing the us and ussr to divide them into two, but for me, best korea wins for being authentic
female authors don't matter.
>>25255768>if she were a male writer, she'd already be canonized in textbooks name one male writer from the past 100 years who is "canonized in textbooks."
>>25256066Hemingway and Fitzgerald are some of the most well-known authors world-wide you retarded faggot and are in every literature textbook
>>25255766>>25255768Women will get all the attention from the world and still say that's not enough
>>25256008Korean fiction for men are also full of self-insert slop.It's endemic to the entire country at this point.
>>25256091You‘re confirming him between the lines by picking authors from the far end of the past hundred years instead of from yesterday.
>>25256184No, I am not. He is just retarded uneducated illiterate doomer faggot /pol/tard - just like you.here you go gaylord nigger: Bukowski, Ginsberg, Kerouac, Burroughs, Vonnegut, Nabokov, Kundera, Hrabal, Beckett, Arthur C. Clarke, Stanislaw Lem, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Haruki Murakami, Alberto Moravia, Ray Bradbury etc. If none of these are in american textbooks then your textbooks are retarded.Demanding textbooks to contain contemporary authors 'from yesterday' is retarded and unrealistic - so that's the next place you are gonna move your goal post, becouse that's all you can do becouse you are (and I repeat myself here) retarded uneducated illiterate doomer faggot /pol/tard.
>>25256199the fuck kind of "textbook" has that slop? i didn't attend high school but none of my college readings had any of that shit.
>>25256025How so?
>>25256091>every literature textbook I majored in literature. Know how many "literature textbooks" I read? Zero. Because you don't read textbooks in literature classes, you read novels. So you are talking out of your fucking ass.
>>25256199You moved the goalposts yourself by shifting the threshold of expected quality toward pop phenomena and genre fiction writers, then moreover covering your assertion by blaming the canon where you know their claim to it ranges from dubious to nonexistent.
>>25256215You and I are the only westerners in the thread.
>>25256222>>25256205>Beatniks are 'pop'>Kundera, Hrabal are 'pop'>Absurd theater is 'pop'>Magical realism is 'pop'again: you are retarded uneducated illiterate doomer faggot /pol/tard.Go read a FUCKING BOOK.
>>25255766>men always get attention for their writing skills insteadThey should. Men are better at writing. But they don't.
>>25255766The Korean war was a mistake. Met a Korean in Seattle that cried everyone was racist there. Then said he was moving to Houston. KWAB
>>25255766>genius author>femaleunlikelyhttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=FgxacX72snA&ra=m
>>25256249>Beatniks are 'pop'>Kundera, Hrabal are 'pop'>Absurd theater is 'pop'>Magical realism is 'pop'Yes, yes, yes, and yes. >Go read a FUCKING BOOK.I‘ve got Gautier, Carlyle, and Ibsen on the agenda for today because they aren‘t contemporary American/americanized faggots.
>>25256271>I‘ve got Gautier, Carlyle, and IbsenTry developing actual taste>Carlyle O i am lauffin. You truly are a bugman
>>25256252Because all modern "men" make is power fantasy slop. Just like women only write self-insert slop.Modern literature is beyond fucked.
>>25256205>i didn't attend high schoolThat much is obvious. You’re practically illiterate.
>>25256280i have a masters, stay mad tho
>>25255842It's pretty common for countries with not a lot of nobel prizes to make it a big deal, I would tell you to see Gabriel García Márquez, but your probably monolingual ass wouldn't even begin to comprehend how much of an impact 100 years of solitude was, let alone actually comprehend the text
>>25256276I don‘t think somebody advertising sci-fi as serious lit should wave the bugman accusation at 19th century historians but I guess that goes with the territory when you only use generalized buzzwords for want of any incisive criticism.
>i have a masters, stay madHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>25256037Corrupt african shitholes can still pump out 10 kids for every woman, so long as they haven't heard of women's rights. Meanwhile nordic welfare states with safety nets and worker's rights are still on the path to extinction.
>>25256066Gabriel García Márquez
>>25256303We are talking about humans and human society here okay? Africans and Indians are not included in that category.
>>25256292>bugman is seething >crying about buzzwords Like clockwork. You dysgenic, overweight (((mold[bug]))) fags are entirely predictable
>>25256292Those sci-fi writers are part of Harold Bloom's western cannon...Which while not perfect is infinitely more respectable than your babble.You and your retarded uneducated illiterate doomer faggot /pol/tard buddies want to look intelligent so bad so you keep visitting this board and shitting it up with the trash you call 'opinion' but you always fail and get exposed and laughed at, so you double down, you move the goal posts, you start acting like it was just trolling etc.But in the end: you are retarded uneducated illiterate doomer faggot /pol/tard
>>25256311No, I‘m not reading Carlyle because of some connection to some blogger you extremely online weirdo. Going there after shilling Ginsburg, Kundera, Beckett, et al is quite a choice though.
>>25256322>Which while not perfect is infinitely more respectable than your babble.No it isn‘t.
>>25255766That's what you get for tiny penis gesture. Be mad.
>>25256215The only thing you just proved is that you were shitty student. I have to congratulate you and american education system. A great achievement: both the ripped-off goyim and the jews who ripped him off are happy. A perfect balance.
>retard wants to look intelligent>retard visits this board>retard voices retarded opinion in smug tone>retard gets called out>retard seethes at people who actually read books>retard moves goal post>retard gets called out again>retard doubles down>retard acts like he is a trollYOU ARE NOW HERE>retard wants to look intelligent>retard visits this board>retard voices retarded opinion in smug tonead infinitum
>>25256420Have you tried not being a retard?
>>25256420>project motivation onto strawman>activate flow stateVery good.
>>25256432>>25256436>no uoh yea forgot about this one. For how combative and argumentative you retards are you sure lack the necessary skills. Like people here take pity on you and spoonfeed you hoping you get a hint but you just refuse to do so no matter what. I should have learnt that 'Arguing with a fool proves there are two,' but it's just sad to see this board being ruined by retards for last 10 years.
>>25255766>wins nobel prize>"overlooked"Nothing good enough for these foids.
>>25255768What fucking writer ever had this kind of attention while still alive, male or female? Robert Browning maybe?
>>25256456>OooOOOOoOoo I am a tortured genius don't you plebeians seeeeeeeeeeEEEeeeeeeeee and I JUST WANT MY SAFESPACEEEEEheh
>Another Korean gender wars threadKim, now is the time cross the DMZ. The great satan has moved its defense systems to Israel. Charge Seoul on horseback. They will welcome you as liberators. Destroy the Chaebols and hang the Jjokbari collaborators. It's the only way to stop these faggots from shitting up every board.

>>25256066There's Sum Ting Wong
>>25256291>literary retards make a big deal out of their backwaters getting noticed>just look at my own shithole’s token authorAnd this is somehow a reply to how she’s a retard for assuming the norm for men is to go overboard with accolades, documentaries, and so on, how? It’s funny you want to make a big deal about how I couldn’t possibly get your coke country’s hippie manifesto when you couldn’t parse a paragraph.
>woman hate thread international editionDon't you guys get tired of this
>>25256940slinging shit is fun retvrn to mkne
The Vegetarian is slop. Human acts is KINO and SOVL.
>>25255795>superior works by menMen have given up all interest in literature and write nothing at all. I hate absolutely everything koreans do so im evidently not very fond of this book but comparing the shit I see on writing threads here, the "subversive male authors" I see get promoted here and all the dimes square wannabe artsy boys like that one IDF poet with the diaper fetish to a mediocre and not every impactful gookslop book is just such an astounding leap of quality that I believe she deserves her award solely based off who her contemporaries are (except for Pynchon but clearly they have a personal bias against him in particular)Besides an even shittier old nordic writer got the award right after she did and somehow his work was even worse!I think I read 1 even moderatly decent male book written in the last 30 years and it was Amygdalatropolis, very great work but I have read plenty of other neat works written by woman in the same time frame like My First Book (phenomenal postpostpostmodern experiment)Videogames have ruined the cognitive abilities of 2-3 entire generations of boys, back in the day kids used to run around the streets with knives in their pockets and sneak into baseball games to watch the older cheerleaders and steal people's snacks, now they are permanently stuck into virtual worlds in the comfort of their homes without truly experiecing action beyond the repetitive confines of their virtual experiences. Due to woman's obsessive and maniacal attitude towards perceived femininity they delayed themselves from getting into videogames believing it was a "thing for boys" and immediatly distancing themselves but now with social media their heads are growing just as rotten and staleTLDR if there really were any great male writers around being "choked out" by the publishing industry as you lot love to claim on a daily basis we would have heard of them or seen their work by now
>>25255766I didn't know Nathan Explosion had a book out.
>>25257119trvke
>>25257119Also I may have to add that the few male writers we do have left are absolutely obsessed with genre fiction like fantasy and horror (not even to be a little tasteful and have something like sci fi) so their output is equally dogshit due to working with elves and orcs as their only frame of reference for the human condition
>>25256028The Indians absorb their DNA, hit critical mass and call the Tyranid Hive Fleet.
I already ate tofu today, what is this book going to tell me that I don't already know?
>>25257119People who call on a justified sense of general contempt to throw cold water in the most asinine places always out themselves as greater plebs than anybody by the handful of things they exclude from criticism. It‘s wild.
>>25257123ok i giga kek'd at this one
>>25257137only one third of the book is about vegetarianism, it's a very misleading title on purpose
>>25257119>neat works written by woman in the same time frame like My First BookAaaand there it is. How many years have you been shilling yourself here? And how many followers have you amassed? Zero?Maybe it's time to try for that law degree, sis.
>>25257119>it's da videogames and social media turning people retarded>tranime_meme.jpg
>>25255766the ultimate prize would be making a video with girthmaster
>>25257351then he's half right then, it's video games AND anime
>>25257351Videogames, social media, tabletop RPGs, anime and comic books with superheros on them
>>25257333>Aaaand there it isYou have to go back
Why do these hostile little shits keep thinking I owe them something?We were never buds.
>>25255766I'm glad every day that I don't read or care about anything written within the last 50 years.
>>25255766The real high IQ take is that the gender war in S Korea is the result of alienation under S Korea's form of high-pressure hyper capitalist confucian-patronage socioeconomic system. Now this on its own would be hellish but add to that mix the caustic and inflammatory mode of contemporary feminism and social media algorithms designed to maximize user attention by any means necessary and you have the world's most retarded gender war where both sides have chosen to embody their worse possible caricatures out of spite
>>25255766korean feminists make r/femaledatingstrategy look like pickmeishas in comparison
>>25256303spain is known for being one of the most feminist countries in the world, yet they have a lower birth rate than japan or china
>>25256934It was a reply to the retarded comment you made saying "actually, that never happens", stop being such a pussy when proven wrong when you were the one who asked for an example, or keep being a pussy for all I care, if you can't grasp two concepts (gender and historical context) at the same time the way you can grasp your mother's dick just focus on doing the latter
>>25257333More followers than you that's for sure!-Honor "big butt" Levy
>25258095I know maths can be hard for foids but zero is not greater than, but is in fact equal to, zero
>>25257119You're so unbelievably up your own ass and, consequently, full of shit, that I thought this was a troll post at first. You treat literature like stamp collection and your ideas are worthless. Never open your whore mouth again unless it's to apologize to me for existing as you are. t. The inverse of the kind of modern man you described. >>25256940Autists love repeating patterns
>>25256355Not their fault Korean men can't put out.
>>25255766I am a forty year old NEET incel who's never felt the touch of a woman and i'm very mad abuit this therefore i must make daily threads whining about women who's books i haven't read. My /lit/ xisters will understand me!
>>25258239>I am a forty year old NEET incelI believe it
Is the Koran literary scene still dominated by men?
>>25255766Wait till they find out the entire "Noble Laurete" thing is just a scam meant to promote DEI and WEF ideology aligned works and not what actual people want or read
>korean feminists are complainingoh no
>>25255842>some shit like this revealing they don't read shithttps://www.semiotexte.com/also,>>25255842(you)>These niggas
>>25257483Frankly I'm convinced that it's just westernisation; South Korea is more significantly touched by that "because" of christianity there, metaphysically speaking.
>>25258415Taiwan also has a significant christian minorityChristians are disproportionately influential in Japanese mediaChina has a big problem stoming out underground Christian churchesYou might be right. Korea's more blatant Americanization might have something to do with it
>>25255766So this ugly cunt writes femoid pandering slop that retarded dysgenic ideologues shower with fake politicized awards and gook women are mad she isn't receiving more attention then she already gets?
>>25258415what does christianity have to do with feminism, if anything, they would be more traditional if they were christian, that's just retarded reasoning
>>25257483No, like all gender war shit it begins and ends with women violating the social contract by abstaining from their sole role of sustaining the domestic and reproductive spheres and attempting to encroach into male spaces.Men in South Korea are required by law to perform two years of military service when they turn 18, which they do for minimum wage (until 2025 it used to be below minimum wage). This puts them two years, educationally, experientially, and monetarily behind women, who use time to forego the only role society has ever required of them: domesticity and reproduction.The gender war shit won't end until women once again have some sort of obligation to society, as men do, and have since the beginning of civilization.
>>25258865shalom.
>>25258865Man you are not gonna believe who a large part of the first christians were, drawn to the fact that separation of the soul distanced themselves from their social obligations.
>>25258865Dānava alert.
