TLDR Women are like books in a library
Let's play a game.
Imagine, if you will, a library. There are many, many, many books, as far as the eye can see. Some books are smart books, some are dumb books without a lot of depth. There's pretty covers with colors on colors and there's also books without any interesting artwork.
There are even some books that seem to be translated 3 languages through, and they read in a TimeCube-esque brand of bat-shit-crazy.
The point is they're a million fucking books in this library.
And imagine that you're a wee young lad. You're 12, maybe 13, and you just started reading adult books. Enders Game. 1984. Maybe some Harper Lee.
You began on picture books and there wasn't much substance. Maybe 10 minutes worth of crap. It was engaging in the moment, but it wasn't anything you'd get yourself too involved in. And as you turned 8 you started reading Goosebumps and ChooseYourOwnAdventure books and Harry Potter and all that dumb shit.
That was the past, and assuming you have basic reading comprehension skills and you didn't slip through the fucking cracks, you're at the library now ready to check out something with a bit of substance.
And there's only one copy of each book. So if you want to get a certain book, you're gonna have to wait for the last guy to return it when he's done with her - uh i mean it.
Or you could try to procure the book in another way. Steal it from the man. Prove you're a better reader than he is and you should have that book for yourself. But in doing so you'd be an asshole thief. Is that really the right thing to do? Ask your clergy.
Anyway as you read more and more books, you get better at reading in general, and your ability to read more challenging, better books improves. You might not understand Homer at the moment, but give it a year or two. You'll grow and you'll get better and your vocabulary will improve.
Someday you'll be able to read multiple books at a time and keep up with 3,4,5 separate plots. You'll be spreading your time out to each book, not neglecting any individual book too much. You might one day even have a 'harem' of books that you constantly cycle through and switch off with one day.
Sometimes people get bored reading the same book over and over again. Sometimes a particular book doesn't work out. It gets too convoluted. It cries rape. It does this or that and shit get complicated and you end up leaving the book in the dropbox and never pick it up again.
And sometimes you pick the book up again, expecting to get more value out of it after leaving it alone for a bit and letting other people read it. Fucktard.
Not all books are equal. Some are newer, some are nicer. Some are 20 years too old and have dusty pussies and you don't wanna go anywhere near that 2001 National Geographic Magazine that has been picked up and put down more than a few too many times.
And you never really own the books. They're yours in the moment, but eventually you're probably going to return the book to the library and some other fool may pick it up and give her a go. But she isn't yours forever.
The moral of the story here is that women are a lot like books. So practice your reading skills and get too it and you'll be reading shit at GoodWillHunting hyperspeed before you know it.

I hate to be that guy but technically Girls are like Books, not the actual libraries.
[–]enjoyit7 4 points5 points6 points  (0 children)
This had me twitching the whole time I was reading the post.
[–]silvertongue35 13 points14 points15 points  (2 children)
From the TV show "The Wire"
Brother Mouzone: Lamar, where's my Harper's?
Lamar: Say what?
Brother Mouzone: Harper's. The new issue.
Lamar: You didn't say that one. You said the New Republic, and Atlantic, and a new something else.
Brother Mouzone: I did not forget to tell you Harper's. Every week I tell you the same shit, and every week you forget half of what I say. Tomorrow first thing, you go down to the newsstand, and you get Harper's. And the Nation, too, which you also managed to forget. You know what the most dangerous thing in America is, right? A nigger with a library card.

That's how Malcolm X started...reading. Nothing moves people quite like ideas.
[–]silvertongue35 5 points6 points7 points  (0 children)
That is what TRP is, a library. You have all these authors who wrote their knowledge down. Be a voracious reader.
[–]Dronkavich 5 points6 points7 points  (0 children)
Love these analogies as of late.
[–]RP_Vergil 2 points3 points4 points  (2 children)
That's why man adore classic literature which are well crafted. Not trashy new crap like Twilight or better yet, 50 Shades of Grey which originated as a Fan fiction.
You don't get gold by rewriting trash.
[–]Derbi50 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
The girl who wrote 50 Shades got plenty of gold from that shit. Also some new shit is pretty good, like GRRM stuff.
[–]TomDemian -1 points0 points1 point  (0 children)
That's why man adore classic literature which are well crafted.
Man adore classic literature because he read a "what to read" list once. Heard of quality, repeats what is heard.
Man not adore modern literature because he not bother to try new things, prefer to read lists, copy what others are doing.
TRP man is independent thinker, has struggle with understanding ideas and expressing ideas. Thread not simply jotted down and posted. Time spent. Effort made.
A man who not do these things not understand TRP.

It'd be hilarious if libraries worked like this.
Snatches 'Huckelberry Finn' from a table and runs.
Guy: Hey stop him! Somebody stop him!
[–]LegSnapper206 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
That was very clever and a interesting pov, i like that.
[–]yaardi 1 point2 points3 points  (0 children)
Some books have sticky pages tho.
[–]Fdreal 1 point2 points3 points  (1 child)
Yea but you don't just get better at reading when you read. You learn new ideas and philosophies, unlike spinning women. Also AWALT, no woman is more or less complex than the next, and it certainly doesn't take experience to get hotter girls. And comparing stealing a book to having a higher smv to bang a girl is just silly. This is such a loose, forced metaphore it's almost meaningless.
[–]JackGetsIt 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
This is such a loose, forced metaphore it's almost meaningless
Agreed. The one strength it had though was the line:
you never really own the books. They're yours in the moment
This is gold. Men new to redpill need to internalize it. AWALT.
The Op's metaphor also falls apart at old books and new books. Books have value regardless of there age women on the other hand have a much higher SMV when they are newly printed.
[–]TheDialecticParadox 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
That would metaphorically make the librarian like the hamster, or female rationalization.
The librarian resorts the convoluted, random pile of books that have been dumped back at the library and puts them back on the shelf ready to be re-borrowed.
[–]Saiserit 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
And you know what you'll get in the end for living a life of "good will?" Goodwill quality books.

Hey i'm a women what does this comment say about me?
[–]crosenblum 12 points13 points14 points  (3 children)
That there are millions of women, and wide varieties of women.
It says nothing about you, because we don't know you.
[–]Thechosenzebra comment score below threshold-11 points-10 points-9 points  (2 children)
Fair enough like the comparison though
[–]Cluttersnug 3 points4 points5 points  (1 child)
So, men are real people and women are static items waiting to be taken out and used by any man who bothers to pick us up. He enjoys or doesn't enjoy us and then puts us back for the next man to leaf through and check out.
You're a woman and you like the comparison.....ah huh.
[–]Thechosenzebra comment score below threshold-11 points-10 points-9 points  (0 children)
Ya know i thought thats what this place was. shouldn't you be proud i have finally seen your enlightenment? that clearly you are superior
[–]Asoka11111 8 points9 points10 points  (1 child)
Impossible. There are no girls on the Internet
[–]Special Olympianmakethemsayayy 3 points4 points5 points  (0 children)
but she said "hur dur im a girl" to get her girl advantage back
[–]Dronkavich 5 points6 points7 points  (0 children)
It says you are one of many.
[–]frozen_strawberry 2 points3 points4 points  (2 children)
to extend the analogy to female sexual strategy:
you want to be the one book he just cant put down. the one reads over and over and that always provides entertainment, new facets of the story that are revealed to him as he reads the book again so he gets to know you better and better. in fact, you're so good he may walk past the library or a book store and he might even glance but he'll never actually want to abandon you because after years and years, when your cover has faded, you still bring more value to his life than the other books could.
and you're not some ordinary book who could have been picked up by any bum at the library to get out of the rain. you saw him in the library before, watched him, saw he has a refined taste and then made sure he'd get you.
once you're at his house you reveal your housekeeping and cooking pages (couldnt think of a better way to put the female duties in there) because you want to be the one book he actually purchases from the library and has little booklets with.
so this analogy pretty much works for women, too.
[–]DuncanMonroe 2 points3 points4 points  (1 child)
Basically she wants to be the bible and her man to be a brainwashed christian who will do illogical, stupid things against his own self-interest in her name.
[–]frozen_strawberry 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
not really, no. though you should probably ask one of the endorsed contributors here who have ltrs why they do it, not me.
[–]throwaway48453 0 points1 point2 points  (1 child)
It says that no one owns you.
OK, the "library" owns you. If you're religious, you might say that God owns you. Otherwise, you might say that Nature owns you.
[–]TellsYouToGo 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
If I were made of vellum, would the dead sheep own me? Can animals own property? Dead or alive? If I leave everything to my pet sheep in my will, could I have specified, that when my sheep dies, she leaves everything to her pet hamster, all in her name (which is Make Fluff btw)? I put it that way, because I don't think sheep really have that much agency.
