King Kong Theory

Emily McMeans

“I am happy with myself as I am, more desiring than desirable.”

“No society has ever demanded such complete submission to aesthetic diktats, so many modifications that purport to feminize the body. Yet at the same time, no society has ever offered women such physical and intellectual freedom of movement. The over-marketing of femininity seems like an apology to men for the loss of their prerogatives, a way of reassuring ourselves by reassuring them.”
