Feminine Quote from Anaïs Nin

1 Oktober 2009


A Spain-Cuban-French author, to be exact, who was famous because of her journals. She was also a female erotica writer, who were rarely be found at that period of time (early 1900).
When I read these words, I know that these words have been in women's mind for centuries, for eras, and for lifetime.

Because these sentences are all about us, the wildest way to say yet the covert wish in every woman's prayer:


"I do not want to be the leader. I refuse to be the leader. I want to live darkly and richly in my femaleness. I want a man lying over me, always over me. His will, his pleasure, his desire, his life, his work, his sexuality the touchstone, the command, my pivot. I don’t mind working, holding my ground intellectually, artistically; but as a woman, oh, God, as a woman I want to be dominated. I don’t mind being told to stand on my own feet, not to cling, be all that I am capable of doing, but I am going to be pursued, fucked, possessed by the will of a male at his time, his bidding."



I can't find a way to say I disagree with her words.
