I thought of the nameless inventor of the bathtub. I was somehow sure it was a woman. And was the inventor of the bathtub plug a man?

BEST LINE: HOW TO LOSE YOUR MOTHER Erica Jong did not invent that phrase. It was widely — and wryly — used to describe parenting in that era. 💙📚 #booksky #readers #reading #genx #memoir #ericajong #mollyjongfast

In this book of men’s poetry, I flipped to the back where three women’s poems are kept, I read this and ached with romantic longing

DYK #EricaJong said this about #FemaleOrgasm?
"Until I was 21, I measured my #orgasms against #LadyChatterley’s and wondered what was wrong with me. Did it ever occur to me that Lady Chatterley was a man? That she was really #DHLawrence."

Obviamente, "Miedo a volar" es un libro muy polémico. Y a la Jong la acribillaron a críticas. Pero ella aguantó. Denuncia el machismo y el derecho absoluto de la mujer por ser ella misma. Libre y capaz. Norabuena, Erica.

"Until I was 21, I measured my orgasms against #LadyChatterley’s and wondered what was wrong with me. Did it ever occur to me that Lady Chatterley was a man? That she was really DH Lawrence."
