Is there a single woman who understands this book?
every single woman understands that book and avoids you for identifying with it

holy SHIT op on suicide watch
No, women cannot understand it.
There are some that like to identify with it on a superficial level but only a man can truly understand Caulfield.

Doubtful. It seems only married women are able to understand it.

I'm in a polyamorous telationship with two women (one has a femine penis, the other a masculine vagina) and a belgium draft horse and they all understand it but i never read it because i didn't like the cover art

it is natural for men like you to crave the validation of their existence and get depressed if they fail to feel relevant, responsible.
The best way for a man to cater his need for approval is to serve some woman (and some of her children) through emotional&financial support.
Men are pleased to contribute to someone else life, to support their family.
Why women are a good way to feel relevant? Because women love to be provided for and each woman will always find a man ready to please her.
[for most men, the best feeling of feeling real is when the girl moans from your cock in her pussy]
THe problem for men is that they are disposable in the eyes of each woman, since all men wish to serve the few women who talk to them.
Men must thus invent several ways to please women, invention and creativity which strengthen their feeling of being worthy, relevant, in touch with reality.
Men are too impotent to find other way to feel real.
Once that the a woman replaces a man by another provider, the man gets very upset and depressed.
THis leads men to think that they are better than women, stronger, smarter and that they must built a life outside women. Some men manage to indeed built an empire, but they will always loose it for some women.
Women give meaning to men and betas, no matter how successful outside women, will always give up everything for some relationship with some woman who claim to fancy them.

>Finally, I have become the Catcher in The Rye
What a disappointing metaphor, unless someone can tell me why I should appreciate it

Interesting, but why relevant to my post?
Are you saying I just need some pussy in order to stop hating women?

but he couldn't catch the bodies coming through the rye, he realizes his drive as futile and children must risk falling from the carousel, for a carousel ride without a grab for the brass ring is no carousel ride at all
the equivalent to the catcher in the rye for women is the bell jar
>finally I realized, like the cake, I was under the bell jar, safe from the motes but untasted -- so I resolved to suffer the motes, for to be tasted is what it meant to be a cake
can any man truely under-stand that
a lot of girls like the book and identify with the protagonist, op
It's about being a stupid whiny teenager which both genders can relate to. I'd say females may relate more because of their stronger protective instincts towards children.

I'm curious as to what aspect of Holden's frustrations and desires is seen to be a strictly male thing
