“ RAT RACE”
“What a rat race this school of cultural thought on women
and beauty
is in which we are all caught up. I am ensnared in this net, like
a
prize catch at a fishing tournament, the Catch of the Day, going
at market price. Let’s face it, as a woman, regardless of
my intellect,
talent and ambition, how many opportunities (compared to men of
equal
ability) will I have to earn six figures? Hey, so I implanted my
breasts with silicone. So what? Got this modeling job. If there
is
a problem down the road, there are class action suits with the
implant
manufacturers to handle it. The way I figure, I can earn enough
money
in the next few years while I am young and fresh to set me up for
later, when I will be too old, fat and stale to be of any use to
the
fishing industry”.
