In a society that vilifies the woman for being older, scarred, (physically or otherwise) and praises a man for the same , I am touched how you made both present as valuable and even desirable. I don’t believe I’ve experienced you explore that reality previously.
I believe the man in this story can do well for himself if given enough time. He’s going to life drawing classes, he’s working on his anger issues, and he’s doing his best not to make excuses for his actions. I think he’ll be alright.

Artist
Model
Author
Me

Great job, Jimmy!
