Soap Precis Week 2

"If I'm So Crazy, Then Why Do People Keep Having Sex With Me" by Gina Meyer exposes the satire behind being labeled crazy and still engaging actively in sexual intercourse. Meyer explains how she is constantly labeled with a personality disorder and yet men still ignore it and will still engage in sexual acts with her. Meyer further discusses that although she may cry or ask for abuse activity during sexual acts the men don't seem to mind, and this makes her question if she is really crazy or are men just ignorant to this fact. Meyer brings up the touchy subject of how crazy people aren't really crazy at all and that labels still do not prevent a person from living a normal life. Meyer also effectively addresses that men are completely ignorant to the personality of a woman who they engage in one night sexual encounters with, and are solely in it for the physical. Those with mental disorders are constantly ostracized when they are found out about, but when we are unaware of their condition they walk among us. The true crazy ones are the ones who label and do not seek to even understand a person at all.
