I’m seeing so many takes about Cat Person that revolve around Margot being “selfish” and “vapid”.

1) why are we demanding perfect 20 yr old female protagonists?
2) maybe don’t bemoan the *selfishness* of a young woman who had sex because she felt it would be rude NOT to
As brilliantly/depressingly relatable as everyone has said. Now imagining a world where women aren't socialised to placate men's feelings above her own safety, happiness and pleasure. https://t.co/IIF3lDvEDL

tons of women in my feed are sharing the new yorker “Cat Person” story but not many men; which is unfortunate bc it’s like a secret window into a private experience our majority has suffered thru & if anyone needs to read that shit it’s men.

This New Yorker short story has gone viral which, to me, seems to indicate that not enough short stories about young women's experiences are being published https://t.co/OVz0TMn0rt

Basically anyone who's ever used a dating app could write Cat Person, just maybe not as well
