Book Notes - Jami Attenberg - Largehearted Boy
The Smiths, Some Girls are Bigger than Others
I was not a huge Smiths fan when I was supposed to be (high school), but I hung out with all the girls who were, the ones who had graduated from Duran Duran in junior high school and found a comforting home with Mr. Morrissey. But he was singing about girls in a way that other bands didn’t at the time (possibly because he didn’t want to sleep with them), and there was the suggestion that it might actually be ok to be a bigger girl, which I of course, fully support.
