Why does it seem that YA novels are so geared towards a female audience?

Why does it seem that YA novels are so geared towards a female audience?

Women lap up shit.

They're the buyers.

Young adult boys spend their time shitposting.

because teenage boys despise reading. This continues into adulthood.

The dog is just being a qt pupper

Girls read more than boys. Once you get to adulthood it evens out, but teenage boys tend to have less interest in books than teenage girls.

Imagine a life where you have never been great at anything, never felt the urge to be great at anything, never felt that magnetic admiration to someone who was great at something, wanted to imitate and ultimately defeat him. Just nothing. Literally all you do in life is exist to post on Veeky Forums. Occupy space. pass the time.

You're bored, as usual, posting about your fucking dislikes and not even feeling any kind of happiness from it, just soothing your constant need to be bitter and cunty and petty toward other people. Every single thing you've done in the past year was mundane, shallow, boring. You spent the last six hours reading kinda-interesting plebbit stories about people who made interesting buildings for their populace or some stupid bullshit that you think is interesting and you may say is interesting but you're not really sure if it's really interesting. You're just fucking sitting there, gestating, fermenting, with a moist hole between your ears that guarantees you'll at some point have to get up and move around and perform physical labor to support yourself.

And then you see women, over in some corner, having fun. You've never seen this before. What are they even doing? Instead of their consciousnesses merely sitting in their thick skull and revolving around itself, they are imbuing their conscious energy and intentionality into external objects, crafts, goals, projects. All the bitterness and cuntiness you feel nonstop seems to be absent from them, as they congratulate each other for being victorious, and happily learn from someone who defeated them.These creatures are truly content to be alive. They have found purpose in a purposeless universe.

And your gaze turns back on itself, on your self, and you realise you've never had that.You can never have it. So you sit down, you post on Veeky Forums, and you fucking ruin your life, the whole fucking thing. The five seconds of attention you get will be worth destroying it. Because you're a failure.

Because the guys are more likely to be reading sci-fi (or playing video games.)

Stale pasta is stale.

Just get on with killing yourself, /r9k/ tripfag.

Males don't read.

And if you want proof about how males don't read, look how fucking dead Veeky Forums is compared to every other board.

Absolutely disgusting.

In everyday life I am nearly guaranteed to have a better discussion about books with women than men. If nothing else they at least understand the basic concept of books as entertainment.

Because the male YA-novels are called "science fiction" instead

Because YA novels for males are just called Sci-fi or Fantasy.

>love to talk about girlish books
>comment on book blogs written by women
>they still don't know I'm a guy

Oh, the wonderful anonymity of the internet.

Because the equivalent, for males, of YA novels, are rather called "Sci-Fi"

because young women (or their parents) spend the most money on books

YA authors are usually women or nu-males and the publishing industry is run by women

...

here's you're (you) now shut the fuck up

go back to your containment general

Go back to r/TwoXChromosomes you ignorant slut.

there's a general for people annoyed by retarded posters who spam their opinion until someone acknowledges it?

Cute

I have some bad news for you: you're not actually psychic.

I wrote the first of those. No idea who the rest belong to, because it's an anonymous message board. Do you see?

Why are you mad?

The golden age of science fiction is twelve.

Boys play videogames instead of reading

Most YA novels have some shitty romance aspect to it. They like projecting themselves onto main characters who are in love.
