I mean, much smarter people than I have written much longer books on this issue.

I think a good starting point is addressing the wage gap, which disproportionately affects women of color.

So, like, raising the minimum wage.

Although, I am one of those who thinks there can be no true feminism under capitalism.

Is this good book marketing strategy?

You worry in the book about the stereotype of women writing only about dating and their anxiety disorders.

Did you get over that fear?

I feel like I havent misused my time or let myself down.

Ive had women telling me that the book was really personally meaningful for them.

Did the book clarify anything about dating for you personally?Oh, everything!

Ive now become a horrible nightmare person who is constantly having conversations where Im like, Oh!

I … actually … wrote about this in my book.

Be honest and communicative with your partners.

make a run at find joy in dating if possible.

I hate when people are mean when they flirt!

While I wasnt at all intending to roast him with that joke, it was very appreciated!

So thats already change enough.

The man mentioned most often and by name is the young love your life, Timothee Chalamet.

Although in that scenario it wouldnotbe cool to hit on him!

I will keep our relationship very professional.

Wishing all the best to Timo and Lily-Rose Depp, love is beautiful!

But I hope anybody and everybody reads this book.
