our desires are held against us
Linda M . Crate
a woman can be anything she wants except sexual
they want the painted faces , the beauty ; even the flirting and the dancing
they don ' t want women to be in control or have powers over them or to ensnare them in any sort of way —
would rather a persephone loyal to her husband than an aphrodite who enjoys the company of a man
we live in a society where a playa is acceptable , but a whore is a terrible thing to behold ;
what about a woman do you hate the most ? is it her magic , her power , her inability to be controlled by a weak man ?
women are every bit as sexual of creatures as a man , but our desires are held against us .
