When I was growing up, all the ladies from the neighborhood would come to watch movies at my house. Movies like untamed heart and ghost, and I would be playing with my GI JOES in the next room
By which you mean: (1) Untamed Heart and Ghost are movies for women. (2) You were a strictly normal hetero boy, and thus playing with your GI JOES (mas macho emphasis yours) in the next room.
when my mom would yell to me, 'Ben come in here!' She would rewind whatever movie they were watching, and play some scene of the lead guy being a total moron, or saying some terrible and hurtful thing. Then she would pause the movie and a room full of middle aged women, all with tissues and popcorn, would look at me, and my mom would say,
..."You're in love with him, aren't you? It's okay, you know. You don't have to keep pretending." |
