I've read this a few times, and it always hits so close to home. What's it like being a woman in a"man's world"? Ha! Disappointing, enraging, bewildering, heartbreaking, disillusioning, disgusting, to name just a few of the adjectives that apply. Especially if you had a mother and father who were Innocents and had no plans to try to prepare you for this jungle, only fears and old-fashioned ideas about how to raise you, along with your other 4 sisters and (more important than girls) 2 brothers. I also always wanted to go with"aliens" but was never presented with the opportunity this mother and daughter were. ( ) Found here: https://www.ida.liu.se/~tompe44/lsff-book/tiptree21.html The author is a woman writing a male narrator with a male penname. I think knowing this gives extra context to what feels like an adventure story but turns into something else by the end. It was very uncomfortable to read the narrator's attempts to try very hard to sexualize Mrs. Parsons (and her "rump"), as though he was doing her a favor. It seemed like he had to be able to do that first before he would be able to see her as capable of anything else besides being a sitcom mom on Gilligan's Island, making the bed and bringing him drinks in a coconut cup. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
