A death-blow is a life-blow to some
They died, vitality begun.

Bio
Now I am not sure about that letter I sent.
Not sure at all. For was I not the one who acquiesced,
mutely responsive and receptive? Was I not guilty of letting
a boy be drawn to self-hatred? And yet does it not all come again
to the fact that it is a man's world? For if a man chooses to be promiscuous,
he may still aesthetically turn up his nose at promiscuity. He may still demand a
woman be faithful to him, to save him from his own lust. But women have lust, too. Why
should they be relegated to the position of custodian of emotions, watcher of the infants,
feeder of soul, body, and pride of man? Being born a woman is my awful tragedy. From the moment
I was conceived I was doomed to spout breasts and ovaries rather than penis and scrotum; to have my
whole circle of action, thought and feeling rigidly circumscribed by my inescapable femininity. Yes, my
consuming desire to mingle with road crews, sailors and soldiers, bar room regulars - to be a part of a scene,
anonymous, listening, recording - all is spoiled by the fact that I am a girl, a female always in danger of assault
and battery. My consuming interest in men and their lives is often misconstructed as a desire to seduce them, or as an
invitation to intimacy. Yet, God, I want to talk to everybody I can as deeply as I can. I want to be able to sleep in an
open field, to travel west, to walk freely at night...
