vendredi, avril 07, 2006 SCWO E. Calendar - Self-mutilation Got this in the mail today.Singapore Council of Women's Organisations1) Nothing is impossible. Walking on broken glass isn't impossible - Annie Lennox sang about it. Nobody said it wasn't. 2) Isn't it enough that women have to do so much self-mutilation just to conform to societal norms of beauty already? (incidentally, JKR has a beautiful rant about this.) Isn't there enough pain already? (See: high heels, botox, breast implants, etc.) Do we really need to walk on broken glass just to prove a point that we can handle life? Because I think stiletto heels pretty much prove that point. Don't get me wrong; I think the "Conversations with Uncommon Women" series is a brilliant idea; there have been many women who have come and shared important truths. But this... honestly. Let the men have their mid-life crises and go skydiving. [SCWO E. Calendar - Self-mutilation] |
