A way has still never been made societally and culturally — after
thousands and thousands of years — for us, as women, to buy, with dollars,
any bodily presentation which makes our lives tolerable and our passage in
this world more comfortable. In fact, our bodies ensure our rough and difficult
passage in this world, and there is no remedy for this, or has not been,
outside of feminism.
Wow that’s harsh, and maybe self-hating. Sure, terrible things happen
to women’s bodies, but really. Women - and I can attest to this by
recent direct experience - can enjoy intense pleasures from
pregnancy, birth, and breastfeeding that men are have barely an idea
of. Many of them seem to enjoy sex a lot too.
