Why did Jennifer expose her life like she did in FLYING? Posted on May 9 2008 at 8:58pm by I've got to admit it, I would never expose my life like this. It's hard for me to understand why she did it (although I am glad she did). Wasn't she worried what her mother would think? What her friends would think? I think she is very courageous.

RE: Why did Jennifer expose her life like she did in FLYING? Posted on May 10 2008 at 7:33am by I think that Jennifer was able to help other women by showing her life this way. I know that after watching the episode last Monday night I felt better about my own complicated life. Somehow, she made me feel that if she could be that confused and still find a way to have such an interesting life, it was alright for me to live in my confusion. I also had two abortions and have always been ashamed of that, even though I believe in abortions. Mindy and Jennifer and her South African friend, all talk about their abortions and it seems OK. I felt better about my own after watching. Thank you Jennifer, if you are reading this for making the film. RE: Why did Jennifer expose her life like she did in FLYING? Posted on May 20 2008 at 9:07pm by look i don't think the issue is jennifer exposing her life like this. we live in an age of exposure. the phrase 'the age of narcisism was coined in the 80's i believe? no? anyway it is common now for people to tell their real stories on screen and in print. the issue is more if the telling is useful. and i think jennifer's journey was very useful for all of us. why she did it i snot my problem - i appreciate that she did it.
