Transcript
00:00Women across centuries have been wearing this stuff and across cultures.
00:04Don't you see what that does?
00:06That simply means if you try to fight, the stuff here will break and hurt your own wrists.
00:13That's bondage immortalized.
00:16And then she sings and dances.
00:19So fond of her own looks.
00:24I'm not blaming, I'm just describing the situation.
00:27The girl is, the baby is not born that way.
00:31That's what the upbringing does to her.
00:33I know that.
00:34I can't blame her squarely.
00:36But that's what the situation feels like.
00:39The voice, the tone, the intent, everything is just womanly.

00:50then hegemony is complete.
