>I think if there were no such thing as men, there would be no word processors. Male writers like them because they have this sneaking suspicion that writing is not the most masculine profession. This is why you have so much idiotic behavior among male writers. There are more male writers who own guns than any other profession except police officers. They like machines because it makes them seem more masculine. Well, I work on a machine. It’s almost as good as being a mechanic.
Is she right /lit/?

Does anyone else actually like Lebowitz? She reads like a less faggy David Sedaris

I thought that was a man and now I'm laughing. I mean, I guess the passage makes more sense now that I know it's a generic "weh the opposite gender is different so I don't like them" tirade.

Femcels are real and I feel just as bad for them as I do regular incels.

he means that artists are basically pure Animas, they're all either homos or effeminate, and the one's who are masculine belie a secretly feminine driving force for their behavior. This was well known in the ancient world all the way up to the modern era when people made it socially taboo to call literati faggots limp dicks

Leftists need to decide whether or not an interest in mechanical systems is a male trait or a non-gendered trait that needs to be taught to girls in order to better prepare them for STEM careers.

I do think she's on to something though. I do bet that men are more into word processors because they make it easier to move stuff around and tinker with the structure of their writing as if it were a mechanical object. Men tend to think that way more than women do.
