Fear

In the ladies room at the office today, I idly picked up an issue of AARP Magazine and read a charming little essay, wherein the author was describing playing with her grandson, the first boy in her family. She writes that she is learning about men from this little tyke. He is teaching her to view the world from a man’s perspective, for the first time in her life. I enjoyed the article very much.

Then I noticed the author’s name: Erica Jong.

Oh, my god.
