“Papa, I'm ashamed that you think women are so simple. We can make decisions for ourselves too, you know. I'm not a child or a baby anymore, so I'm allowed to speak my mind. And if you don't wish to hear it, just tell me so and I'll go into another room-but I'll speak it anyway.

Put him in a macho bullshit environment and he's going to have a hard time. I don't want that to happen. (Let's also not forget Wei's immortal words to him nine minutes after he was born, when she first stared into those big brown eyes: "Oh, honey. Promose me you'll grow up to like boys. Because I don't want any other woman in your life except me.")” ThinkingWantFirstsHardBigsHappensEyeKidsGrowsBornNaturalForgetLeaderBoysGrowing UpEnvironmentWeekMinutesSonGayListsSupremeNineHard TimesBrownImmortalMy SonHoneyBullshitScratchesMachoLike A BoyBrown Eyes Book:My Most Excellent Year: A Novel of Love, Mary Poppins, and Fenway Park Source: My Most Excellent Year: A Novel of Love, Mary Poppins, and Fenway Park
