Quote:
"I consider this kind of pair-bonding-obsessed weepiness to be anti-feminist, retrograde and disempowering to women. But my opposition [to How to Be Alone] is not so much to this innocent piece of diaristic vlogging, but to the culture that upholds it as in some way exemplary of feminine behaviour, as some kind of useful balm for the wounds of a supposedly monolithically married society."
