[navree]

the problem with reading a book published in 2012 and set in 2008 is that i can’t tell if i’m able to clock the One Gay Man because of the stereotypes we’re getting or if it’s just the way i’m pretty good at clocking stuff in middling fiction

#personal #guys he's a journalist with Issues in manhattan who has odd eccentric rules for his office #and is known to be a headache to work with cuz he yells and is overly fastidious and spends hours fretting about minute details #and he squawks meanly about pictures of women which was The stereotype for gay men at this time #(the tortoiseshell glasses clinched it but all of this was information we had before they appeared) #this book is Okay. literally just Okay. this is one of the Okayest things about it
