RE: how to talk to a man (buono)

I agree with this post in a sense that I think it was wrong of Houston to generalize the hunter to all men and the fact that she must have had difficult relationships with men in order to make such a general stereotype like that. Although it is a bit harsh, I don't think it's meant to be seen as offensive. I find it interesting that the narrator is so good at 'talking to the hunter'. It seems that she knows exactly what to say to kind of "play the game" that is this relationship. I think for Houston to write something that specific, when having to do with a relationship, she would have had to gone thorugh something similar. I do think stereotyping is wrong but Houston does have a premise for this since this isn't the first I've seen of this kind of relationship. It is seen in movies, on telivision, and in other works of literature, which says that not everyone made it up. I also disagree with the statement made that every relationship has to play out like this. It doesn't. This is just one example of a common type of relationship. I also overall enjoyed the story.
