Peace with the Unspeakables





The first reaction to these wouldn't be so appreciating. Of course I don't want to imply that she's a very philosophically heavy person but, let's see this from other angle: Why the "unspeakable parts" should be that way? When human being will start treating all of their body parts without shame and guilt induced by Judo-Christo-Muslim beliefs?

I don't mean to give much credit to her and claim that she knows what she's doing but, these acts, knowingly or unknowingly, bring the unspeakable in the radar ranges of human spectacles as "body parts".

We, the people, will start to see her "stuff" as we see her hands, for example.

It takes a shameless person to tear the shrouds of tradition and unknowingly reveal more of the horizon.
