"Girl"

Recently I reread Jamaica Kincaid's story "Girl" (which annoyed me because I wasn't able to recall where and why I had read the story initially; and since I put a heavy amount of personal expertise into my ability to recollect, I grew ridiculously, and still quite am, annoyed), and formulated these three theses:

The production benefits of ownership of woman/women is a definite value and cost saving commodity. Not only are you owning the general commodity itself but also, you are owning the means of production. However or through whomever the roles of gender constructs are passed through does not matter; all that matters is that it is, and it works damn well.


The issuance of "norms" of behavior; the passing on of "who you are" as opposed to "who you should be"; patriarchy qualifies what is valuable and where there is quality; Homo Sapien's have an innate stimulus to control, classify, and awkwardly objectify their world.


To write differently; to challenge that writing, not in a codified pattern as in subject verb agreement accentuated by predicate, invalidates the construction while validating ambiguity.

Live Relentlessly,
