The Rapture of Canaan

And I forgot the author already. Its ok, I like the "young" voice aspect of it although the narrative ran in the same tone throughout the whole book, even though her age changed from like, 9 to 16. But whatever. I like the mocking of speaking in tongues. What I didn't like? The sexualization of breast feeding. I guess its because I tried it, but

Watch me comment.

EW SEXUALISATION OF BREAST FEEDING ACK IT'S LIKE SOME SICK MIRRORED ELECTRA THING (or like, a normal Oedipal thing, as far as that can be normal) Not that women who HAVE breast fed aren't totally hot because like, may I direct the court's attention to example A *points at Steph*

(something went wrong in the construction of that sentence, though I'm not sure what)

Its ok, I followed you! And may I direct the courts attention to example B --> Angela! Wait, you haven't breast fed. But if you did? You'd still be just as hot:)

Lol... tell me Annika is off the boob. Please. Just to reassure me...

Oh boy. There is a woman on the fringe of my circle who breastfed her son until he was like... 5 or something. I ran in a 5k last summer and saw him trotting toward the finish line with his mom (he's 8 or so now) and my friends and I joked about wondering if his mom was going to whip it out for him at the finish line.

Yeah I think 2 1/2 is the outside acceptable timeframe, and I am the one who decides. Oh wait, no I'm not. But still, five is wrong and hurty. Wrong and hurty.
