She said it, tai: tosirakkausmyytti

”We’re filled to the gills with this sappy, sugary, true love myth that I think is hurtful in the long term… I don’t believe in happiness as a consistent lifestyle… You need something a lot more stable than true love. True love will get you laid for a couple of years and all of a sudden you’re looking at someone and thinking, ”What do I see in this person?” Your chemicals wear off… True love sets us up to hate ourselves in the long run.”

En olisi osannut sitä itse sen paremmin sanoa. Eikä onneksi tarvinnutkaan, sillä sen sanoi vahvoja ja monitahoisia naispuolisia sankareita kynäilevä nuortenkirjailija Tamora Pierce The Atlanticin Tamora Pierce on ’Twilight’, Girl Heroes and Fantasy Birth Control -jutussa.

True love up yours!
