not that i am soliciting dating requests at all (please), but i’ve decided i need to institute a required reading list for anyone who wants to date me. it’s for the good of everyone involved, really; if you don’t grok these books we will find each other unbearable

the “if you want to date me” reading list: rage becomes her, soraya chemaly; so you want to talk about race, ijeoma oluo; beauty sick, renee engeln; all the single ladies, rebecca traister

Awkward 🐢 liking this tweet given the way this list is named, but I’ve been looking to read more diverse things, so added all these to @goodreads

No need to delete. Building shared context and narrative in dating takes time, especially if you’re dating men. I see this as a smart way to ensure some level of understanding while weeding out those who are not interested in expanding beyond their own worldview.
