Okay, so I was sitting on the train reading and this woman next to me is reading a page in like 15 seconds or something. I read very slowy and haven't read many books in my life but would like to improve. Is this something that just comes with time? Or do you have to not be born a faggot?

Your reading speed will improve very fast if you just pick up a book and start reading. When I was little my first "real" novel was The Hobbit. I don't remember how many pages it has, but probably less than 300, and it took me weeks to finish it. Today I can read through a simmilar book in two or three hours.
Also some books are an easier read than others, which has a huge impact on my speed. Maybe the woman was just reading something shallow in massive print, (not to sound mysoginistic, but I never saw a woman read what I would consider a real book).
Most importantly you only live once and reading speed shouldn't be your concern, just have fun.
