I hate women more than any of you niggers but I honestly disagree with this. Her poems are pretty good. But she only managed to be a good writer because she was a reclusive spinster. Thottery is antithetical to creativity.

>>19351785
The only people who think this are Asians themselves. Stop hating yourself, anon.

>>19351785
Then you aren't white.

>>19351804
This, I hate women so much it's ridiculous but Dickinson is good.

Maybe if you could get a white woman, you would appreciate them.

>>19351656
>frigid
You mean she takes care of the kids and the home and doesn't try to have "a personality" (e.g. le quirky, le slut, le "strong" nag, etc.), sounds nice, I think I will enjoy that.
>>19351790
You haven't criticized anything in particular except her sex. Why don't you criticize her poetry and then you can call what I said cope if I can't give a rebuttal. Until then you're just a seething incel.

>>19351545
Read books that help you understand women. Little woman is a classic but if you want something more read by woman today, normal people is loved by white woman. If you live in a real trendy place like I do (Melbourne) Autumn is the go to

>>19351545
Any well known classic about a man who dominates a woman physically and mentally.

i dont know if the people posting these threads want a real answer, i always assumed it was just a meme, but heck i'll bite.

First: go on a long-form dating site and be honest with your interests. I met my wife of 6 years, as a early 30 neet with nothing to his name but an unwieldy home library, a failed business, and some debt, while she was from a wealthy (even aristocratic) Italian family, well employed and with a European literature/history degree.

Second: read on a wide range of subjects, including science, sociology, music, economics, etc, as well as, in the best humanist tradition, practice rhetoric as a social tool to amuse and engage. The ability to entertain, or to use small-talk, is the most underrated skill, that can get you almost anywhere. I say this as an otherwise shy reclusive man. Being able to fake confidence is almost better then having real confidence. Learning to talk without simply listing off memorialized facts – the most know-it-all, unattractive quality imaginable – is something gained through experience.

Third: memorize some poetry. The knack of deploying it is an art lost to time and is now something only gained through rough experience, that will at times leave you looking like a fool trying, but when done right, good concentrated language still has a power that modern ears find almost magical.

Forth: if you can, learn an extra language. Italian and french have served me well, and have not only expanded my dating pool , but have also given me an international and worldly air , that even today counts for quite a lot.

Filth: make notes. Read with a phone or a pencil on hand and save the anecdotes, aphorisms and observations that you think can be deployed in dally life. I have multiple pdf’s crammed with the stuff that I simply dip into whenever I expect a social occasion. Again, here only experience will help. A histrionic sensibility will help but even then giving your words a modern and natural sounding feel takes more effort that you’d think.

Sixth: Don’t be snob. Gain an appreciation for pop culture, or at least an understanding of it. Depending on your disposition, this is almost the hardest thing to do, but as it is something you will never escape, literature – criticism in particular – can make easier. Play video games, read some classic comic books or manga, watch some anime and youtube videos. This all culture, and unless you plan on larping as a Victorian gentlemen, which girls might quirky for a few weeks, it’s something you will have to engage in on some level.

You get get it, live a complete life. Don’t just read Evola or DFW or whatever fucking meme book lit has adopted this year. This is all the lit related – tangentially related – advice that is not just hit the gym, or watch your body language .

You are will never be a white man.

>>19351545
>Read books
>For the purpose of attracting women
You're fucking pathetic, that's why women don't like you, reading won't change that.

>>19351545
it doesn't matter what books you read, it's how charming you are when you talk about them

>>19351545
The only thing that matters is that you're good looking. Try that.

can you share any part of these pdfs? sounds interesting.

Cool post overall, thanks for sharing (not OP)

>>19352308
This is pretty good advice, but I've got a feeling too many people will LARP like this for 6 months and then expect to be swooned-over by end-game art hoe/library thot.
I think if anyone is going to commit to these points, it must be done over the course of a few years at the very least, at least so the refinement, charm and wit one is aiming for can be internalised. Otherwise it will always be a LARP in their mind and they will always feel like an imposter.

Also dating a "high quality women" involves a lot of (potential) compromises that most people browsing this site aren't prepared for. So you've got the cultured, intellectual, elegant and perhaps wealthy woman that you always wanted. But now she want's to go to the theatre, wine tasting or travelling every weekend but you want to sit around and shitpost on 4chan or play video games. Good luck with that. It's better to first be honest with yourself about whether you want to be a "high quality man" - whatever that means to you- in the first place.

Unironically Beowulf. My wife said one of the first things that made her interested in me was listening to me sperg out about Beowulf after an English /lit/ class once. She said she liked how passionate I was about stuff.

>>19351545
Women who read likes newly published books on social realism. They never question the books but take its point at face value because it made them feel in a certain way, and that makes it true

>>19352625

>>19353070
Also, let's not forget that OP "just" got one girl by doing this, maybe he would have found that girl whatsoever, even without the "self improvement" stuff. What he wrote is certainly no guide to "how girls will swoon over you 101".

ebin, what did you expect would happen?

>>19353221
I wish I was a woman and someone thought I was cool for being into history

>>19353221
Just go up to her next time and ask her about the book she's looking at. If she doesn't want to talk to you (even if just to be polite), then it is likely that she wouldn't have wanted to under any other circumstances; if she's rude than you will be knocked out of it and learn to avoid her lol; if you do talk then it will probably feel nice to have talked with another (pretty) human even if it's small talk and out of courtesy; if it goes further ask to go out for a coffee or something and discuss books. It's really not that hard to be honest, just calm down and don't take yourself (or her even) to seriously. c'est la vie.
>>19353232

You don't have to be for people to appreciate your interest. Literally bring it up in a convo and people will imeadiately have something to say you can talk about it.

Is that like how r/femaledatingstrategy looks for "high value men"

>>19353247
Yes but I want men who are attracted to me to think that my knowledge of history to be cool, anyway my knowledge is too shallow for me to impress anyone

>>19351545
Camus and Sartre are surprisingly popular among females, give them a read because it could serve you well

>>19353087
I still remember a few Beowulf lines and I'm not even from an English-speaking country

>>19353175
Of course I understand: clearly Beowulf is so good that any man who reads it will be better for it and inherently more attractive as a person.

>>19351545
I presume you define yourself as a high quality man, or at least you think it to yourself, although you may don't fill the critera of the standard handsome boy next door. Why so ? Because you value your own values and tastes, whatever (shit) they are. Keep reading your things and you may one day meet and attract someone as valuable as you, or at least open minded, thanks or not to your bookshelves. And if you are looking for a specific stereotypical type of women, then you are probably smart enough to guess what those projections want, as you want them to be that something.

Read a book that makes you lift weights, have a steady career, attend church, and be a reliable human being who people find trustworthy and honest. Also try to read books that will make you go out and socialize with others so you are in practice and won't seem like you have Asperger Syndrome when you finally meet a pretty, high quality woman that you want to charm.

Other than that, I once got a date with a girl because I saw she was reading Anna Karenina and I told her that one of my favorite similes in any book is in Anna Karenina (and then I showed it to her of course). I also had to actually ask her out after that she didn't just throw herself at me.

>>19356550
which simile is it? I'm reading it atm

>>19352308
Genuinely good advice. I did debate in high school and it was truly amusing to be a smooth talker. Now I haven't spoken in a few
years apart from small quick sentences and can barely talk anymore without stumbling and getting confused. Such is the fate of the true clochard.

90% of relationships are friends of friends (if you don't have friends, good luck, you're playing hard mode on top of being a schizo/recluse/ugly bastard/whatever trait you have that made you end up in this thread; that's like nightmare mode)
Go to underground concerts of folk/experimental music, or maybe weird book meetings, you may find some pseud girl and impress her with pseud powers

It had nothing to do with the actual book you derps it's the fact that he was passionate about something (it can be anything) and Women love this because they then assume that you can be as passionate about them as you were said subject. I say 'were' here because that's all it applies to, they'll probably want you to put less emphasis on whatever the subject was later once your attention is fully on them instead.

Replies were great to read as an example of how Men are driven differently, but both retarded in their own way.

>>19356657
I knew at least two when I was younger, one from church and one from university. Both were beautiful redhead virgins, not the Irish fishwife phenotype but more like low-key young Nicole Kidman.
For various reasons I didn't mate with either of them, had a good run with others later on only to be alone in middle age.
In the early 2000s a semi-autist like me still had a shot, I honestly don't know whether they still do or if the whole dating landscape has been nuked as 4chan thinks.
I cope but I'll never be young again with innocent pre-tinder women shyly glancing at me.

>>19356657
I should've fucking married her

>>19351545
Whatever books you're interested in.
Because you're trying to attract a woman who has done similar reading that you have done, it is immediately obvious that your objective is to read books that interest you, to ensure you find a woman who actually matched you well.

>>19353087
It's because women are attracted to passion, the specific book did not matter.

The one when Levin sees Kitty. It's in the ice skating scene toward the beginning. It helped with the flirting since it's specifically a simile about a man seeing the woman he is in love with

Kek, I once thought like this, until I realized the whole thing was the other way around. I didn't appreciate white women, so that's why I didn't get them. She doesn't have the attraction what it takes for me to put the effort to get her. The shame they try to put you through is a psychological cope that the blame is not in women and their worthlessness, but that the men are somehow wrong. The white nordic man is the most valued man on the planet, no matter where they go, and they are being terrorized and blamed at their home country. Just get out from there for a while, and you will find out your real value, and how spoiled and undeserving the women at your home country are.
