Summary: Wonderful insights imbedded in almost inpenetrable jargon
Comment: Comment on "COLONIAL DESIRE" by Robert J. C. Young by Jan HaagHow dare you make sex so boring?
When all you want to point out is
Europe's attraction to the beautiful, often
willing, native women (and men),that must be hypocritized so
that the whites (mainly) could go on
"teaching," raping and pillaging, gleaning the wealth
of others lands, killing fathers and mothers of their chosen mates,
disowning their hybrid children,
like our own Tom Jefferson having his black kids
serve his white kids. All that high tonedtalk to camouflage the love they
had of the sensuality,
sexuality that they had bred out of their
moralizing bones, out of their (they hoped) women's moralized bones.
Of course they wanted to make love
to the exquisite apsarases of India,
China, Burma, Indonesia,also bred to compliance, but
compliance of a different sort.
Women ! of the East were taught to worship their men
as Gods. And if Europeans weren't Gods, who were? If the natives
weren't racially inferior
how justify stealing their land
and mandating opium addiction, killingmillions? Say it, R. Young. Don't
mask yourself behind bastardized,
linguistically-hybridizing utterances,
anticipating a defenselest a colleague might accuse you
of interest in the sexual
charms of nautch girls, whispers from your body's desire,
wishes for time's disappearance.(written in Skandhodgrivi, a Sanskrit form) Copyright © Jan Haag, 1998
