Going to work on a Gordion knot.
Aug. 30th, 2006 10:40 pmGender-wise, my mind is like one of those children's puzzles where there are cartoon characters fishing on one side, hooks with different items on the other (old boot, tire, anchor, used condom - only one has a fish), and between the two lie tangled lines.
from G-d
In other words, |
from misleading pseudo-intuition------------- from startlingly accurate intuition
I hear the I Ching reads: |
the problem is that from escapist fantasies ---- from deep-rooted insights into real problems
Hundun: "Chaos: where beautiful dreams are born" |
From my opinions about gender --------------------------------------------------- from wishful thinking ---------- from my hopes for my life
| Before the beginnig of a great brilliance, | |
I cannot cleanly separate gender identity ----- from overall identity --- from professional identity -- from fear of failure
| there must be Chaos;. |
from sexual identity ---- from sexual history ---------------- from a history of isolation ---------------------------- from fears of ostracism
| | |
from sexual desire --------------- from kink ------ from social power relations
| before a brilliant person |
from sexual frustration ------------------------------ from social frustration
| begins something great,
from overall frustration ------------------ from obsessive-compulsive disorder ------------- from body-image issues
they must look foolish to the crowd
That's a lot to dissect:
I need a really sharp scalpel,
and a little time.
