For example, in saying that men do not like to take women to expensive dinners. For example, in saying that women like to be taken out to expensive dinners. This book definitely puts women in categories. I'm going to bust out the Merriam-Webster here and define misogyny: Women are very one dimensional and vapid and emotional throughout. I also feel the need to point out that reading this as a woman is this: It would be misogynistic if it weren't so clear that this was clearly written by a man who has experienced a lot of rejection in his life and is incredibly bitter. I'm not attacking this reviewer, but I think it's a good summary of the sorts of things people are saying: This is a direct pull from a reviewer below. Everything in here is Rachel.Here's what I'm seeing in a lot of reviews. I welcome many new friends: Birthday card Rachel. There is strip of notebook paper There is receipt La Cucina, on which is now written, “First Date.” I am placed inside shoebox under his bed.Īt first, I am afraid, because it is dark, but as vision adjusts I see I am not alone. Suddenly, though, Jordan carries me away-to other side of room. I do not really want to move in with them, but what can I do? I figure this is “end of the line” for me. Inside are Cigarettes Gauloises and Film Forum Schedule. When I wake up next day, Jordan is dangling me over trash can.

But I am quickly covered in pile of clothes. Part of me kind of wants to watch what happens next. And then, all of a sudden, the humans are laughing! And then the girl is hitting Jordan with pillow! And he is hitting her back with pillow! And they are laughing, laughing, laughing. MetroCard looks at receipt La Cucina and laughs. But two hours later they are gone, replaced by receipt La Cucina. I assume they will stay long time, like most Twenties. That Saturday, five crisp Twenties show up. I have never been more frightened in my life. On him is written, we’re getting somewhere, MetroCard says. It is about this time that I meet strip of notebook paper. He is very polite, but I get “weird vibe” from him. He says his name is Cigarettes Gauloises. It is dark, but I can see we have new neighbor. What is wrong with old image? That night, I poke my head out of wallet and look around pocket. He is just trying to “change his image.” I am confused. Jordan Hirschfeld is same guy as Jordi Hirschfeld, MetroCard explains. I miss my friends and I am lonely.Ī few days later, I meet Film Forum Membership Jordan Hirschfeld.Īt this point, I am in “panic mode.” What is “Film Forum”? Who is “Jordan Hirschfeld”? What was wrong with Velcro Batman? It had many pockets and was warm.
