performing myself

in high school my teacher showed a movie called tough guise. it was about the face males put on, gender expectations, the whatnot.

everyone in the class laughed at the title, the silliness of the pun, and at the lisp of the movie's narrator.

I went to an all-male high school.

I want a boy to sing beyonce's if I were a boy.

today I started to cry at the end of rocky II, when rocky staggers around the ring, grips the microphone, and says he just wants to say one thing to his wife back home.
