This is a collection of the stories that made the author who she is, about growing up in Southern areas like Baton Rouge, Louisiana; Atlanta, Georgia; Durham, North Carolina; and Pensacola, Florida. She writes about having two father figures (her birth dad and mother's abusive cocaine addicted alcoholic husband), being made fun of at slumber parties, receiving sex tutorials from her babysitter, losing her virginity, and the sexual abuse she suffered from her mother's boyfriends. The zine also covers her teenage years, her birth father's death, her mother's attempt at suicide, and the author's attempt at suicide. She also details her mother's psychological abuse to her regarding her sexuality and body image with attempts to put her on a diet. In the last part of the zine, she loses a friend who was driving drunk and gives her feelings about the femme identity as a political statement. She identifies herself as bisexual and fat and includes a soundtrack listing.
