read the story called “Malibu“ and this was from the perspective of a man… With acne, bulimic, looking for a partner. Highly judgmental with very little room for error-despite himself being somewhat ogrish. He sits around with his uncle who is on a colostomy bag and watches TV and throws up anything they eat. He finally has a chance for love, but his ego gets in the way.
