Advice is what we ask for when we already know the answer but wish we didn’t.

#EricaJong said this about female orgasm:
"Until I was 21, I measured my orgasms against #LadyChatterley’s and wondered what was wrong with me. Did it ever occur to me that Lady Chatterley was a man? That she was really #DHLawrence."

Obviamente, "Miedo a volar" es un libro muy polémico. Y a la Jong la acribillaron a críticas. Pero ella aguantó. Denuncia el machismo y el derecho absoluto de la mujer por ser ella misma. Libre y capaz. Norabuena, Erica.

Book page with this sentence highlighted: It’s funny because when I was young my mom would tell me she was a great mom, then when I got a bit older, she would tell me she practiced “benign neglect” —as if this parenting style was somehow by design.
BEST LINE: HOW TO LOSE YOUR MOTHER Erica Jong did not invent that phrase. It was widely — and wryly — used to describe parenting in that era. 💙📚 #booksky #readers #reading #genx #memoir #ericajong #mollyjongfast
