I just really like boats. I miss sailing. -What do you like about being out on the water? Just kind of… you know, if you wanted to you could just keep going. Freedom.
I’m reading about “otherness” by Simone de Beauvoir right now. I’m trying to understand how to view women’s otherness objectively and not through the male gaze. Because if a woman’s consciousness and self is only what is projected onto her, how can she have any agency and understanding of what she is as a woman? But how do you discover that from a female perspective when you have been “othered” your entire existence?
