Sometimes you hear or read a random
sentence that makes you feel so uncomfortable that it makes it difficult to
talk about. Different topics affect people in different ways, but this one sort of gave me a cold horror chill.
I suppose the only way I could summarize it
is ‘What not to ask a clairvoyant’.
Galadarling has a weblink to a blog
by Rachael Rabbit White: rachelrabbitwhite.com. Her blog is excellently
written, not sensationalist just tackles sensational topics. However, it is sometimes
difficult and confronting reading.
One of her posts discussed people wanting
to become non-gender. Rachael
interviewed an ex-woman who got not only her breasts removed, but also her
nipples, so that she could truly say she was a non-gender individual. The
reasoning and the extent of the desire by this person to undergo this
transformation is the topic of the posting.
It also asks, what do you call ‘it’? (A
bit like the ‘man previously known as Prince’ but now acknowledged by love
symbol #2)
Another post by Rachael was an interview
with an award winning, cross-dressing, Goth-shock adult entertainer.
He asked Rachael to come to the
clairvoyant with him, and for her to ask a confronting question.
When she asked for an example, he
apparently was pushing for her to ask ... ‘will I ever be
raped?’
I have to admit, this shocked me;
what a question to ask! Traditionally the 'yuk!' question we all don’t want to know is ‘when or how we are going to
die?’
Another one I don’t want to know is ‘Are
our children going to die before us? If so, how and when?’
Are we going to be raped? This goes
beyond the realm of wanting to know.
We all have to die, but hope it is not too
soon. But to want to know if you will be
violently violated sexually ... brrrr.
That is one question I DON’T WANT AN ANSWER TO.
Must say I agree with you. Not that I believe in that stuff but the times that I have gone eg at the sea side in Brighton UK etc I always wanted to know good stuff. But then I was only going for a laugh with friends. Can't say that any of those questions ever crossed my mind.
ReplyDeleteScares you though, whether we believe what they say, or whether we don't.
