Why do some women actually like Heathcliff? He's a piece of shit, and I'm about a sixth through with the novel.
'Greatest love story of all time?' What the fuck, if I wanted to read about sadomasochism I'd read Venus in Furs.
What did you guys think about this novel?
I thought the main character was a dislikable stuck up bitch, heathcliff an unbearable ugly asshole -even uglier at the end- and the priest guy also a piece of shit for wanting her to marry him. The only bearable people were her childhood friend who sadly passed away, and the two sisters who helped her through her stay in the little cottage with the priest guy who's name i don't recall.

Reverse Cuck with Unresolved Sexual Tension, the novel

lol no you may be, i was confusing this shit with Jane Eyre from Charlotte Bronte so yeah. I did read Wuthering heights a long time ago and i thought i was pretty good though, definitely better than Jane Eyre.

I thought Jane Eyre was okay. Different strokes, I guess.
speaking as a woman, i'd say they're more attracted to the idea of a passionate, all-encompassing love. plus the whole byronic hero thing has always been attractive

OP is right though. Heathcliff only gets worse.
tl;dr
Catherine: I'm a teenager forever. OMG Heathcliff is so hot because he abuses me.
Heathcliff: I hurt you because I love you, bitch.

Nah Jane Eyre im pretty sure. I think i liked more Wuthering Heights because i enjoy either completely corrupt fucks or good people, whereas Rochester was somewhat in the middle, yet a sort of passive agressive douchebag. Heathcliff was more of a complete monster and that's somewhat more liberating to read, atleast for me.
The characters in this novel are such whiny bitches, damn.
All of you retards are failing to see that the characters were written to be unlikeable. This is an anti-romance novel.
While reading this how could you, for one second, think that Bronte intended for this to be a traditional romance novel? In this time of repression, unbridled love manifested as outward hatred and refusal -- displayed in every character.
This is a masterpiece, by the way.

OMFG I WANT A MAN TO BEAT ME UP AND TELL ME HE LOVES ME
Jesus Christ this is such a reverse cuck novel with a cuck

There. You answered your own question. Some women are retarded, that's all.
I actually liked the book decently, but its overpraised to all hell. >>7874977 this. I don't think its a masterpiece because of that, but its clever.
