She was nervous, but Deen said she was awe-struck by his celebrity. She could back out at any time, and he said they could rip up the contract if she was uncomfortable.#2 When Girl X asks herself what she is doing with her life, she is also asking herself if she wants to be slut-shamed for having sex with Deen. She is grappling with the spectators inside her head and the power of spectacle itself.#3 The experience of sex for Girl X is a painful and familiar one. She is pulled in different directions, and has to balance desire with risk. She has to pay attention to so much in the pursuit of pleasure.#4 MeToo has created a culture that prizes women’s speech, and yet many women are not being listened to or believed.
