Reader Feedback on "Early Exposure"
I love the subject matter of this article. It has the ring of truth, great details, and an unusual perspective. I found the writing style the least effective aspect; it is overwritten in places - too much effort to make it sound literary. I would love to read more by this author, but even more so if it was written in a simpler and more direct way. Thanks x

Beautiful story - beautiful writing. I also love the line about the photo and the carrot. And love the way the girl wonders about how it got there and whether it had to be artfully arranged by someone. More please!

I admire the truth I see in this author's work, and admire her ability to shed the glossy veneer of life to show us what lies beneath. I don't find her work completely and utterly pointless. I find it brave and honest and real. What I find completely and utterly pointless is people's inability to allow others to freely express without being shamed or condemned for the act. I guess it all boils down to how secure you are within yourself and how safe you feel when you venture into another's world. Obviously, we are not all cut from the same bolt of cloth. We all like and dislike different things. I respect ZXZ's right to comment, but find it hard to respect them for requesting this author to not waste bandwidth in future. When any writer stirs something in me, particularly something that makes me uncomfortable, it makes me sit back and wonder why. It is a perfect opportunity to examine and journey within. There were parts in this piece of work that made me squirm in my seat for a bit. And deep down, I know the reasons why that might be. But my fleeting discomfort doesn't give me the right to stop someone's creative expression. I found her work engaging, and her writing beautiful despite the short-lived discomfort that I experienced in parts. More power to her, I say, for stepping into a land that few of us are brave enough to traverse.

"It reminded me of the elegantly posed portraits of our great-grandmothers, only this grandmother was not wearing any clothes and there was a carrot in her vagina." Brilliant line. Wow.

Pointless. Completely, utterly, pointless. Please don't waste bandwidth like this any more.
