She believes society places women in roles not chosen by them (women).

The Wing/Jong persona is crazy, funny, literary, and very much embodied in short, I see myself in her. Parachutes & Kisses is like that time you wrote a drunken email to your ex and then decided to cc eighteen million other people, for profit. She describes her own shameless infidelities, shameful vulnerabilities, and raw insecurities without stopping to remember that, hey, she's the author and she's in charge of this book. Jong's work is readable because she terrorizes herself with the same steady hand with which she dissects others.
