I feel that the pieces by Maso were created for writers. It was intriguing to say the least, and I think without it feeling too repetitive, it drove the point home that writers should not be bound by the established grammatical constraints.
Numerous times, grammatical rules are compared to "the man" who is holding us down.
Thoughts about gay and lesbian writers writing their outside stories with inside rules was something that resonated with me in both a good and a bad way. It would be great if a new kind of literature that was true to the minority was established, yet, if writers decide to tell their personal stories beyond the average grammatical rules, the average reader is isolated.
It's a double-edged sword with this type of literature. In one case, a new, truer genre is established, yet at the same time, the people that should receive the information the most (those ignorant to a cause) will be left in the dark, so what is it all for?
