Dick lit versus chick lit

Chick lit is a way to dismiss women readers, of course.  Dick lit is a way to laugh at men, who follow their penises everywhere, even into their intellectual endevours.  And what poor endevours those are, filled with laughable plot lines where the most-unlikely things happen with young women to the delight of the male readership.  Fantasy, said Freud, is a major part of every normal person's life.  Therefore, it's not surprising that literature should allow us to live in these places.  I've read one book that I would consider dick lit and that is a book by Ross MacDonald.  It was fantastic, but far too uninteresting.  I want my authors to get me closer to glory, which is all they wanted too.  If I can share in that glory, the fiction has succeeded.  I have delved more deeply into the human soul.  It's great books that put me in touch with the eternal.  I loved Ross MacDonald's book.  But I have to spend my time reading great literature.  I realize how pompous I sound; what I'm trying to sound is sincere.  I am happy about Prose's list because it doesn't just have the Russians, Irish, Canadians and Americans.  It has new writers too.
