men don't want to read books with female protagonist but do women want to read books with male protagonist?

the clear answer is for the publishing industry to start prioritizing non-binary protagonists in order to sell twice as many books

Lack of empathy is a sign of low intelligence. Smart people can read a book with any kind of protagonist.

Female readers are the NiceGuys (tm) of the literary world.
Female writers are the incels.

Both men and women find men entertaining and interesting
Only women find women entertaining and interesting.

I enjoy reading female protagonists. They just need to meet my criteria:
>must be cute and dumb
>cannot have sex or romantic interests with anyone
>they have to be humiliated and laughed at by popular women with larger breasts
>they cannot have a happy ending
Is it so hard?

>My favourite women are also men.
Also, this is clearly a Canadian. Based for having a weapon out in public. Given, you need tell folks it's a 'tool.' If this man didn't have a fresh shave and was not dressed as an effeminate knight, would probably be in jail because Canada is a society of narks and gawkers and it saddens me.

They sometimes do but a lot of them will cope its not as good as anything containing a female protag.
Women are plotfags

any statistic, any bestseller list, any quick look into a bookstore will tell you: female readers prefer female protagonist 8 times out of 10. exceptions are niche categories like children's books (Harry Potter and such...) or true crime or pre-20th century classics. Duh.

yes, women are uninteresting and they don't really exist when there are no men around to give them attention, but of course women only read porn so their books are about the common girl who the wealthy gigachad makes his sex slave. this was the case before porn was socially acceptable as well but the prose was less vulgar

Schools teach girls to empathise with males by making them read books about men all the time. For men they only give lectures about feminism that annoy them. If we gave boys actually good books about girls like Alice in Wonderland we would have nicer boys

It's literally the argument for diverse lit in schools
>THE BLACK BOY CAN'T RELATE TO THE BOOK ABOUT A WHITE BOY
But then:
