From their bathrooms more and more young women seem to be dreaming themselves into existence backwards. Frequently, women across the color and ethnic lines are posing in, or taking self-portraits in public and private bathrooms. Often billing themselves as working models, or aspiring models they share the ability to demean themselves visually without a clue of how low class their presentations are to anyone looking to hire a model. There are numerous women who film themselves in nasty bathrooms with graffiti on the walls of the stalls, or pose next to a hole in the stall smiling hungrily at a large penis protruding through the wall. All of this with the insane idea they will attract a company, a sugar daddy, a trick, or an agent who will lead them through the gauntlet from anonymity to fame with cash for 'dat ass'!
What has stalled the birth apparatus within millions of today's young women? Where do women go to find the counsel that does not sell them to the illusion that there is something appealing about filming themselves in a bathroom? Most certainly they do not get wise counsel from the sage, the old wise woman, or the grandmothers.
The old stories women traditionally passed to their daughters in the sacred hideaways from men folk that emboldened them, and strengthen their spirits with the mysteries are not told. That much is clear. So, where do our young women go for insight into the mysteries of their Being? The bathroom? The internet? - Gregory E. Woods 10.28.14

Estoy más interesado en la mujer que quiero ser, en lugar de las cosas que quiero tener. En el momento que sea ella, ya tendre todo lo que he querido..

I'm more interested in the woman I want to be, as opposed to the things I want. By the time I'm her, I'll have everything I want. ~ Dolly Castro, model, designer & actress from Nicaragua
