Annem balerin, bu onunla da çok konuştuğumuz bir konu. Klasik balede kadın erkek ayrımı çok net. Çünkü kadın point giyiyor ve rol olarak kadın hep prenses. Erkek ise prens, kurtaran. Masallardaki gibi. Kuğu Gölü Balesi, Rapunzel... Ve annem de hep şunu söylüyor:
"Klasik bale bitiyor." Çünkü artık bir bale topluluğuna biri alınırken, kendini tanımladığı cinsiyet soruluyor. Bazı erkekler point giyerek dans ediyor. Ama bu geçişkenliği klasik baleye oturtamazsınız.

Yeah. That's me. All the time
Confronted with this point and caught off guard, I’d failed to properly think through my response.
(Bu durumla karşı karşıya kaldığımda ve hazırlıksız yakalandığımda, vereceğim cevabı doğru düzgün düşünmemiştim.)

From 1562 to 1598 France suffered a series of civil wars between Roman Catholics and French Calvinists (or Huguenots). When both parties reached the point of exhaustion, they agreed to a territorial compromise in the royal Edict of Nantes (1598). The Huguenots gained religious freedom and political control of certain parts of the country, while Roman Catholicism remained the official religion of the realm and in the greater portion of the nation.
Well, perhaps she could try not to underestimate him, like Dajer was obviously doing. This was another point her master had made, repeatedly, to her. Her people—as powerful, immortal beings that were regularly worshipped—had a habit of being…
Well, “distinctly insufferable” was how her master had put it. And for all that her uncle and Hoid had different worldviews, Frost had encouraged her apprenticeship. She still remembered what he’d said. Learn from him. For he is one of the few grander than we are, and yet he treats all the same.
While “same” to Master Hoid involved a great deal of mockery, she hoped she had learned what her uncle wanted. A little.
Rather than denounce the tenets of Averroes, Maimonides, and Aristotle out of hand, Thomas Aquinas examined their writings point by point, refuting some and reconciling others with Christianity. The result was his Summa Theologica (a summation of theological knowledge).
Far from aberrations, they are all rigorously faithful to the system's acquisitive logic. Life-impairing but lucrative deceptions have been repeatedly exposed in virtually every industry and in the most prestigious firms, from pharmaceuticals to the extraction of raw materials, from air travel to car manufacturing to food production. We need not belabor the point here, except to remind ourselves that the folks in control are powerful and "respectable" people, even philanthropists, in whose minds the denial of prosocial values has become acceptable, more virtue than sin, and either way, a requirement.
