Author Discusses Men, Novels, and Societal Expectations

Some people are talking about how men should read more books, especially novels, because it's seen as a good thing.

The author thinks men might not read novels because they don't find them interesting, unlike some women who do.

He points out that literary novels can be a bit exclusive and that the people who decide which books are popular are often women.

Men and women may have different reading interests, which could explain why men don't always read what women are reading.

In the end, the author feels that there is pressure to enjoy certain books, but it's fine if you don't like them.
