Just checked my kindle library, looks like everyone in there is definitely a guy, and most likely white. No indications as to whether they like to touch dicks though. Welp, this pattern hasn't really steered me wrong, I think I'll stick with it

lol I clicked on that article for the first time and she had to take pictures of herself with a bunch of books where she's like 80% of the frame instead of just making a list of books you should read. I wonder if she's not actually doing this to improve herself, but to get attention and stroke her own ego???

I do read a lot of sci fi, so there's a pretty good chance some of the authors in my library are high functioning autists does that count in SJW politics?

Is she going to keep watching the show about the powerful white man who whisks pretty young women off so they can 1) listen to him explain everything and 2) watch him save the day and 3) fall in love with him all the drat time? The one where most of the scripts are written by white men?

QUEEN CAUCUS posted:she looks like she could stop eating food instead of stop reading books lol nice ninja edit, I saw that thing about how she should stop eating food cooked by straight white dudes Honestly it would be a good idea if it meant she ate home-cooked meals, those are generally healthier than restaurant/processed meals

Simstim posted:but how many of those white, straight, cis male authors were closeted gay, transgender or biracial because it was illegal to be those things in the past and/or came with with severe social repercussions. poo poo, even women authors used male pen names in the past. The other side of this, of course, is trying to claim that every great author was secretly gay/ a woman

I bet a lot of authors were secretly gay though I mean what there's just Gore Vidal, Jack Kerouac and Oscar Wilde as the gay authors? Who's gonna believe that's the end of it lol

A lot of great authors do seem to have been gay. Which makes sense, because being existentially miserable seems to be a prerequisite for great authorship.

The only good authors are either gay, Jewish, or reactionary European alcoholics.

No, OP, I don't self-loathe myself to the extent you do. Good writing is good writing, it has nothing to do with skin color or sexual identity, sorry.
