Greg S’s Reviews > I'll Show Myself Out: Essays on Midlife and Motherhood > Status Update

Author insinuates that gay men are more likely to remain trapped in a hetero relationship because women are easier to live with? There’s a lot to unpack here. — “Life is easier with a wife”

I think straight people fantasizing about being gay is sort…not right? I mean, gay people get divorce, too, you know?

it’s funny that even in her lesbian fantasy, the author is passive.

obviously, the author feels some kind of shame for having gay thoughts and urges, and maybe somebody needs to give her a hug and tell her she’s enough.

This author is so intensely emerged in social media and television culture that I’m impressed she had time to write this book.

Essay, literally, about HGTV.

Dichotomous thinking.

I don’t know how the author thinks her anxiety is genetic after describing her father’s habit of scaring them.

Emotional reasoning.

See, I think it’s funny and kind of amazing how intense kids are. The author does not.
