Bovary was interesting.
>>7457960

Stoner's wife was pretty interesting. I still can't understand her behavior. I want to know more about shallow cunts like her.
I try to avoid books about female characters

Cersei Lannister is a well written female character with many interesting aspects

I'm more interested in why straight males relate to a rapist like Stoner so readily and demonize his wife.
>>7457940
There is none. Every female is a direct representation of the status of her womb and fertility, as shown by evolutionary psychology. That encompasses the totality of her inner life. As a consequence, it is not possible to have any complexity or nuance in a realistically written female character.

DH Lawrence has a select few

>a rapist like Stoner
marriage was consent by law back then
rape is a social construct
thus it wasn't rape

>rape is a social construct
I like you.
>Not reading Hamlet
>>7457940
yes, youcreate one that thinks and acts like a man
>>7458080
that's hardly a convincing character
>>7457940
Clytemnestra and Kamoko. Your turn.
>>7457940
Is it even possible to have read so few books that you can't think of an interesting female character?
>>7457940
The short answer is yes, unless you're retarded.
Stop making the same fucking thread over and over.
>>7457940
What do you think OP?

Go read some books, I ain't doing your work for you, thicko

I'm a fucking idiot: the post.
>>7458504
I'd add a few more that I find interest to the list in the second of those posts. The protagonist of Nightwood, of Carter's fairytales, Ukifune, and any of Unica Zurn's mostly-herself protagonists.
>>7457976
The twin sister from Tartt's A Secret History.
only in relation to how they influence genuinely interesting male characters.
