What favorite book is a dating deal-breaker?

Having met women who swear by this book and having actually read it for myself, this would be my choice. It’s a nasty book that encourages people to be crazy.

I suppose some men might feel intimidated by her apparent interest in big, heavy balls.

Can’t remember it coming up, but it never hurts to have an anecdote in reserve.

“The Peoples Army is not merely an organ for fighting”

You get me, babe?

Everything is awash in urine, lust, soot, semen, secretions, and other contaminates. :poop: You would think a vaccination would help in a great many areas.

Barbara Cartloads, I suppose

Kapital is way too long. It’s got three massive volumes and can be dry / mathematical. The Communist Manifesto is more realistic.

Either The Turner Diaries or I Am Me, I Am Free.

Couldn’t hurt if I ever had to engage with the Cheescake Commando Cadres either…

The Turner Diaries or The Protocols of the Elders of Zion.

Not a book, but I didn’t want to start a new thread to point this out.

The thing about this is that most professed Marxists and socialists would never bother to read this. Anybody who does must at least be deeply intelligent, but also probably somewhat interesting. And the ideology it contains isn’t inherently repugnant like some of the other books mentioned here (Mein Kampf, Turner Diaries, etc.). I think I’d be unlikely to want to settle down with somebody who says this is her favourite book ever, but I wouldn’t call it a dating deal-breaker. We’d probably have a lot of spirited discussions for one thing. Just IMO.

On Marxist girls:

Looking for someone I can play with
I don’t care if she’s skinny
I don’t care if she’s fat
As long as she goes for boys like me

'Cause I like them like that
She might be a Catholic
She might be a nurse
She might give me a child or gonorrhea

Or something worse
She might be a painter or a communist
With my luck
But that that’s the kind of girl you really want to fuck.

But especially her

Me, too. I skimmed a DiAngelo paper once and it is offensive stuff. I think most of the people who push that tripe haven’t read her and don’t actually read much…

That’s a rather broad category, and a popular opinion. I assume the reason for that choice is to avoid anyone whose philosophy is contrary to yours and I don’t aim to disregard it because of that (much in a similar way I’d aim to avoid “yoking” myself to anyone who’s philosophy is no match to mine). It just makes me wonder if that would preclude for example a fan of Kierkegaard or Dostoyevsky; or even say Tolkien or Chesterton?
Anyway, to add balance to the thread, I might say The God Delusion; although I think that’s a pretty reasonable choice all things considered
