"Maddy thought she should ignore it, allow him to maintain his self-respect as she’d been taught... New Maddy knew that self-respect was merely a euphemism for masculinity."
Jennifer, this is a truly wonderful, multilayered, gripping story about gender, male domination. The image of the inflatable dad is haunting, as is the relationship between Paul and the "doll". Good work!!!
Fantastic! Well done!
Thank you!
This is great. Creepy, poignant, and I also couldn't stop laughing at imagery of the inflatable dad.
