I did not expect that. Libertine, way to engage CHALLENGE ACCEPTED mode.


It was neat, to be honest. I just thought of some of my favorite authors/books, typed the name/title + "excerpt" into Google and viola. Copy/paste magic. <3

Haha, that's funny how they turned out. Not what I would have expected, that's for sure!

EVERYONE'S MENZ. 'Cept Orwell. He's questionable.

I wonder...

Stephanie Meyer (Twilight) - Male/Weak Female
E. L. James (50 Shades of Grey) - Weak Male/Weak Male

Moving on.

Orson Scott Card (Ender's Game) - Weak Female/Weak Female
2nd Try - Female/Weak Male
Ray Bradbury (Fahrenheit 451) - Weak Male/Weak Male
Ken Kesey (One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest) - Weak Female/Weak Male
John Steinbeck (Of Mice and Men) - Weak Male/Weak Male
Richard Adams (Watership Down) - Male/Weak Male

Looks like the book about bunnies is the most masculine thing here.
Gotta remember Nova it's just writing style, and of course men would use a female like writing style more often if it is better for immersion. :) If they're not doing it purposely then they probably are just very good at writing.

I stand by my bunny comment. Even though I've read that book and know better.
