OK, to be fair — I’ve got cancer. It’s metastatic lung and brain cancer. So even stoic men try to be kind to me. Some of them genuinely mean it, others probably just don’t want to look like jerks. I don’t care. Whatever the reason, I’ll take it. Though my friends really do mean it… they’re pretty wonderful.
