"What was it with men? If they weren’t vindictive assholes, they were gay. And when they weren’t assholes, or gay, they were sex addicts. When they weren’t those things they were weird and full of nails and wires and had blue or purple hair and kissed your hand and made you feel tingly and excited even though they were rude and obnoxious. My life was slowly filling with oddballs."
