Romance writer argues men should read fiction to understand women

Ali Berg publishes essay on romance fiction and male understanding of women

Romance writer Ali Berg publishes an essay in the Sydney Morning Herald arguing that men seeking to understand women should read romance novels rather than consulting dating podcasts, YouTube videos, and manosphere content. She draws on observations from speaking at the Readings Romance Festival in Melbourne and Blussh Romance Festival in Brisbane, where she noted hundreds of women discussing what they want from relationships but almost no men in attendance.

“It's not that straight men don't want to know what women want. I think they really do. They're spending hours looking for answers in dating podcasts, watching YouTube videos promising to explain women and in the corners of the manosphere that don't seem to like us very much.”
