Ahhh see I love how both you and your ex both exemplify how most women are not all one way or all the other: because I think there's a lot of that missing in fiction sometimes! And really who is all one way? It's like a lot of the people involved in making movies and tv (I think books are more well-rounded here a lot of the time, although obviously not always) are so stuck in "feminine" or "not feminine at all" (except for the stilettos and makeup and hair of course) that they lose the contradictions in it that most of us have. It is just... variety would be nice. That's all, really.

But it totally made sense and that is what I want too! Smart, sassy, fun women who are woman-ly, whether that means feminine or not. AND ALANNA WAS AMAZING, and I am totally not-at-all ashamed to say Stacy McGill was my favorite babysitter, whatever, bratty snotty fashionable girls ~originally from New York~ are SOMETIMES THE GREATEST. (But no, they were all great.)
