You can’t just throw the stuffed toy out the window and think you’ve banished grief. As a story about the weight of loss, the relief of letting go, and the recovery of self NC is extraordinary
I appreciate your take on this show. It helped me to understand and enjoy it, somewhat, as overrall I found it depressing and sad. One of my nieces who I met for lunch today is very much into women's issues and hadn't heard of the series, so I recommended it to her. We discussed the movie "Poor Things," which was nominated for several awards. I saw it with my wife and she disliked it intensely, as did my niece, who described it as justifying rape and pedophilia. Just as a dog can smell and hear things we cannot, same with a cat, women can sense and understand things men cannot, even though we have the one X chromosome. So I can pretend to understand certain things or "get it," but I'm not good at pretending. Thank G-d for that one X chromosome. Where would I be without it?
Yeah, some things really bring those differences out. There was a major gender difference in reactions to Fani Willis’s testimony too. Women loved it. Men not so much.
Brilliant deconstruction of the episode.
Thank you so much!
Susan Bordo, thank you for your creative and intelligent writing
And thank you for saying so!
I don't think I can love this more❣️ it captures all I experienced so beautifully.
Thank you so, so much!
