Spoiling the only 2 memorable movies I ever saw Nicole Kidman + Scarlett Johansson in
..for a good cause , I promise!
The films in question, just about summarise female existence in the world to me:
- The Others
- Girl with Pearl Earring
The 1st is a simple ghost story with a twist
…where the protagonist mum & children turn out to be the ghosts haunting the house they’re convinced they LIVE in.
^ Eponymous of 3.5 + billion of us, who slide thru this world , having no impact on its big * small structures
The former equates ear -piercing to = the grand, nasty intercourse , which forms the fabric of our lives {even for the few of us who manage to live around it}
And it’s Accurate indeed.
- A young girl’s ear is poked thru to create a hole with a foreign object.
- It aches &bleeds initially
- Then another foreign object is inserted into the hole. with the intention of wearing it regularly for life. this objects is shiny, pretty & utterly conceals the ugly process of flesh mutilation
- The hole must be used frequently enough to avoid the pain experienced @ the outset , from coming back
- Pre-cautions must be taken to pursue earring wear: New ones must be sanitised; Activities where the hole can get torn or uncomfortable, must not be undertaken;
Moreover
This is either done to females when they’re too young + powerless to protest
OR
They do it to themselves slightly older, having been convinced that they want it
