Who are the great /manly/-core authors? Who understands what being a man in the modern world is like, without being cuckolded by the shame imposed upon them by political correctness and feminism? Which authors are most likely to be read by men and least likely to be properly understood or appreciated by women? Who gets the usual knee-jerk accusations of misogyny just because they don't write or behave like women? Which authors of past ages should inspire men?
I'm thinking:
John Updike
John Cheever
Raymond Chandler
Thomas Pynchon
Herman Melville
David Mamet
I hope picture isn't related
Tennessee Williams

What's so great about John Updike, especially to list him first.
I've only read an essay by him in uni and I walked away thinking he was a huge faggot, and also nasty.
It was about him going to a grocery store and staring at some girl's ass without making a move like a beta.

FYI: John Cheever was a homosexual.
>>7881264
Well, at least that's hard to understand for women.
>>7881237
It is. That new propaganda about heidegger being a cuck is fake as fuck. Jews just mad he slammed Hanna and never apologized for nazi shit.

I don't think the /r9k/ narrator in A&P is actually the author, anon.

>shrill cunts who wreck lives
Ever seen Glass Menagerie, my dude? If you think that of Laura you're probably a sociopath desu.
>>7881271
Ah, the old "It wasn't really me, it was a narrator from whom I artfully maintained perfect authorial distance, I promise" excuse
>>7881277
You ever seen Cat on a Hot Tin Roof?
>>7881298
Yes?
Masculinity is toxic, have you not heard?
Pynchon isn't manful at all. He's a withdrawn beta who creates wacky and exciting worlds in his books to make up for his dull life, just like Nabokov made up for his mediocre conversational skills with sparkling prose.
mishima so manly that he glorified sex with men
Heidegger was a serious manlet.
Should be enough to expel him from the great Manosphere.
>>7881264
>man
>have sex with another man
it really can't even get more masculine than that, dummy

My mom likes pynchon
>>7882275
Yeah but does she really "get it"?
Not a single post saying Homer? Fuck you guys
Who are the great /feminine/-core authors? Who understands what being a woman in the modern world is like, without being cuckolded by the shame imposed upon them by political incorrectness and misogyny? Which authors are most likely to be read by women and least likely to be properly understood or appreciated by men? Who gets the usual knee-jerk accusations of men-hating just because they don't write or behave like men? Which authors of past ages should inspire women?
I'm thinking:
Virginia Woolf
Ayn Rand
Sappho
Mary Shelley
Simone de Beauvoir

Do you ever think its weird that the guys who gave you the term 'redpill' aren't guys anymore?
>>7881366
A lot of homos are super obsessed with masculinity
>>7883605
turns out the redpill was actually a dose of female hormones

>>7883356
All your women authors are shit. You just memed yourself into utter humilation.
>>7884956
Actually tho, it's a p good list. Crossing off Rand, you could make a good "Women Authors" chart to post whenever that thread makes its rounds again.
>>7883613
like op.
masculinity and feminity are spooks, my property.
hashtag gender is a social construct no 1 understands shit x
>>7883356
Any Bronte sister.
>>7881206
Kek, all of those authors would get the shit kicked out of them by Mark Hunt. Ruminating on shit you can't control is literally the opposite of what being a man is all about.
Bukowski.
Protip. Real men don't spend all their time worrying about feminism and muh SJWs, nor do they spend time onating about how manly they are.
In this world, woman now possesses the power of speech. She doesn't understand it, but that doesn't matter. The response should be terseness. Take refuge in meaning and action. Don't hate women
>>7881298
you are a dumb motherfucker if you think every character in a novel is the author
So I know of this manly as fuck author that writes about manliness and the meaning of masculinity, also backing the behavior of men throughout history. He insults feminism, governments, corporations, etc. for the way they're demonizing masculinity. If you want to check him out, his name is Jack Donovan. He has one book called The Way of Men, and is releasing another this month
>>7887815
Jack, is that you?
>>7887406
>Ruminating on shit you can't control is literally the opposite of what being a man is all about.
Mark Hunt would ruminate on all the taxes and societal pressures that he has to deal with. And world leaders would have to ruminate on the pressures from banking cabals. Even religious men have to ruminate and wrest with the daily pressures of their faith.
There are always higher levels to control. Even incredibly physically gifted men need to deal with constant moments of greater submission to other men. You're kidding yourself if you think that you were actually saying anything with that post.
Henry Miller. Every man should read The Rosy Crucifixion.
>>7887815
Literally who?

Joseph Conrad.
