I have to admit that I too..."look". And I know now that women also "look". But even that`s different...no man fears his person or dignity..be he ever so ugly, so disgusting, he still feel entitled, as a MAN, to get in his looks and comments. Here in Mexico I watch young girls tighten their shouldres and cringe in advance as they walk past any group of men who seem to think leers and jeers are welcome...I don`t think they think that..I think in a way it`s "sexy" to them because it slimes and humiliates..which is what Christianity has made of sex..something you enjoy BECAUSE it is "dirty"...and you get your own special rag to do it to. I haven`t seen my daughter in several months...and they were months when she went from gawky to gracefull...to tall and well proporioned and pretty and sweet and a good student and good athlete...I cringe inwardly now as I walk with her and see the eyes of the men, boys and twits follow her. It can`t be fought at every level at once..but the reminder is good too...women are still defined by their biology primarily..they still don`t get equal pay for equal work...but things have indeed changed...even in Mexico. I was stunned to to learn that a woman friend of mine here played American footbal when in high school in the late 70s...at a time when parents were taking the Little League to court so that their daughters could join boys only teams. I remember the main argument put out by coaches and Christian men..that a hard ground ball might bounce up and hit a girl`s developing breast..and then where would she be? At that same time, in Mexico, girls had a tackle football team, wore helmets and pads. They didn`t join the boys teams but then they didn`t want to. And another thing..everyone knows women are stronger and take pain better...they have to be to create human beings out of their bodies and put up with their role in society..and I`m convinced there`s been selective breeding going on for centuries if not millenia...men have found "appealing" the weaker more submissive women and in turn their daughters who were "appealing" found mates and so on till men were able to say, "girls are just like that". A man`s proper place is educating his own..not counselling women..just as white men had their work cut out for them dealing with their own and challenging them..that was all the "help" any Black ever needed. It`s just that sometimes you have to affirm what you know to be true about men...just so they don`t get away with convincing women that Feminist Issues are "shrill". Nothing changed my perception of a man`s role and my own development more than the Feminist books I devoured, including every single issue of Ms Magazine from the day it came out and for the next three years. Not only a man`s role but everything else I was taught to believe was "just like that"...."the way god intended it"...the way "Nature made us". Nature made us vulnerable during infancy to any stupidity taught o us by the same people we depended upon for food, shelter and a hug...but it gave us the means and mechanisms to grow up too. ...if a man can change his perceptions of women and other "naturally ordained things"..then anything is possible...and we need everything to be possible cause THIS sure as shit ain`t working. --------------------- |
