Sorry about running late with this post, but I'm really frazzled. I agree with Whitney and Tracey, I have definitely had some issues reading Cunt. I try to keep an open mind about people whose views differ from mine. But I really had trouble stomaching some of this one. The parts about abortion made me physically ill. And like Amber said today when she, Tracy and I were talking: How do you accidentally get pregnant three times?? Hello?? When she began to denounce Christianity by implying a sexual relationship between Jesus and Mary Magdelene I was very upset. I know she is not the only person to do this, but it still bothers me. Much of her commentary was extremely hateful to men. I'm sorry, but all men are not scum! Trust me when I say, I have dated the worst of them. I have been in an abusive relationship, and yes that takes time to get over. But all men did not abuse me, one did. The relationship I am in now is wonderful, mutually respectful and he treats me like gold. There are such examples of positive heterosexual relationships. Both Inga and Eve need to include those womens' experiences too, and they choose not to, becuase they dont fit their political and social agendas. That really bothers me. If you want to write a book about universality and all cunts, then talk to all women. Include all their stories. Even those that may discredit your social agenda. Women who are not whores, who have not had abortions, who are not lesbians, who may be happy being in healthy heterosexual relationships as wives and mothers have a right to tell their stories too. I'm sorry I am just a little upset about the one-sidedness that i see in Inga's work.
