“I see being a woman in the world as a social problem. That's very urgently problematic in terms of it still being a man's world, and women's identities still being shaped by the way men look at them, and the way men can control what kinds of opportunities they can get based on how desirable the men find them, or how compliant. I don't think that's really changed a lot.” ThinkingMenWorldWayLooksKindStillsProblemOpportunitySocialTermIdentityChangedHe ManDesirableBeing A WomanSocial Problems Author:Anna Biller
“Men in long-term relationships, we all know how they lose their mojo, they just completely fall apart. They feel like they're not even a man anymore, and they get kind of feminized and weird and they have this longing for this animal, brutal part of themselves to come back. Love does something to men.” KnowsMenFeelsKindLongDoeFallTermLosesAnimalKnow HowLongingLong TermBrutalFalling ApartLong Term RelationshipMojoBack Love Author:Anna Biller
“Heterosexual women who've had long-term relationships see their man fall apart. They go, "I'm giving him my whole life - I'm giving him my love, I'm cooking for him, he's got this great sex, he's got everything. Why is he so miserable all of a sudden? Why does he want to get away with his buddies and look at other girls? What is his problem?" It seems like something that happens to men, they feel like their manliness has been chipped away and destroyed by being with just one woman. They feel resentful and they're passive-aggressive.” MenWantGivingFeelsLooksLongDoeHas BeensWholeProblemSeemsHappensFallGirlSexTermCookingWhole LifeDestroyedMiserableLong TermJust OneGet AwayAggressivePassiveFalling ApartBuddyLike SomethingOne WomanOther GirlManlinessResentfulLong Term RelationshipPassive AggressiveGreat Sex Author:Anna Biller
