Ungovernable

5/13/2018

Picture

A woman’s body always stands on the outskirts of town, verging on uncivilization... half of its whole being is devoted to remembering how to live in the woods.
This is why Witch, this is why Whore, this is why Unlucky, this is why Unclean.
This is why attempts to govern the female body always have a feeling of last resort, because the female body is fundamentally ungovernable.

That is a brilliant quote. The constant attempts to try to control and manage women's bodies is one of the most vile things about the the world in which we live in currently

Isnt it? The idea of “remembering how to live in the woods” coincides with your post about tails and mythical women in an interesting sort of way.

Love this. The presentation of nudity, while giving the finger - you don't own this!

Never a truer word has been spoken. The attempts to control women’s bodies sickens me.
