Sofia’s Reviews > 30 Things I Love About Myself > Status Update

For a journalist who wants to write about serious issues like race, Nina is REALLY bad at debate and actually articulating her points. She constantly has her words twisted and puts her foot in her mouth CONSTENTLY. It's kind of cringey tbh.

She sounds more like a 18 year old who just moved out of home for uni and started forming their political opinions and writing about them, not a 39 year old woman with a degree.

Context: the MC, on her quest to love herself, goes dining alone. The waiter asks if she wants a 2nd plate and she responds: "Society just can't handle the thought of a single woman with a healthy appetite dining alone. You really don't need to assume someone is joining me. It's kind of sexist."

I'd be okay with her thinking that, but saying it out loud? Relax, no need to be all Simone de Bouvoir on the poor waiter
