Inulitas

Clogged. 1st report.

I have just read some articles about the dangdut diva Indonesia: Inul. She has gained national popularity in just months of time. And not just that...the international world is also turning its head towards her. With her 'grinding' dance she swept other competitors in this area of business (well at least in indonesia). It's amazing really, what women can achieve with her body!

Just several days a go I read about the famous exotic dancer from the second world war, Mata Hari. She is just so famous and everyone knows who she was, even if they aren't very acquainted with her story. She might be the very first international erotic dancer in the whole world. No body at that time dared to expose their body in front of a band of men. And also, her one and only dance made her way through out european military world. Nowadays striptease dance is nothing new anymore. One can get a fortune if she knows how to manage her gigs and make a good advertisement for herself.

All of these brings me to the thought of feminism and gender problems. Sometimes I find it really sad that women have to reveal ourselves like that to nail men's interest and get them to grope right into their pockets. It is as if women are nothing more than just entertaining objects to satisfy men's lust. Men make us do things we perhaps would never ever think of doing if they weren't so powerfull and moneyfull.

These thoughts occupied my mind for quite some time. But then I tried to bend the idea, and imagine what it would be like, if the situation were the other way around. What if when women had all the access to power and money. (Well let's face it.., we women are not (yet!) that far in comparison with men) What if men were living in a women's world..Would there also be Inul and Mata Hari in the form of men? I can imagine seeing myself in a crowd of women, my eyes feasting with the sight of handsome men stripteasing....So I guess it is not an impossible thing to happen. Then there would perhaps be men, which were considering these things in the area of masculism and as one of the gender problems.
