Advice is what we ask for when we already know the answer but we wish we didn’t.

Who is Erica Jong

The American novelist and poet Erica Jong, became famously controversial by her book Fear of Flying, for its attitudes towards female sexuality and figured prominently in the development of second-wave feminism.

Jong was born and grew up in New York City.

She has been married four times. Her first two marriages, to college sweetheart Michael Werthman, and to Allan Jong, a Chinese American psychiatrist. Her third husband was Jonathan Fast, a novelist and social work educator, and son of novelist Howard Fast. This Marriage was described in How to Save Your Own Life and Parachutes and Kisses. She has a daughter from her third marriage, Molly Jong-Fast. Jong is now married to Kenneth David Burrows, a New York litigation attorney.

Jong is mentioned in the Bob Dylan song “Highlands” (Time Out of Mind (1997) ), she supports LGBT rights and legalization of same-sex marriage and she claims that ‘Gay marriage is a blessing not a curse.

Jong has a strong personality and as struggled with her weaknesses as a woman came out as a winner.

She is one of those people who have an opinion and know how to stand up for it.

So, she rarely needs an advice, but she knows that when she does, its just only to confirm her strong prior belief.
