At the meeting in the dark room, our elites approached this sensitive subject from three different perspectives. After vehement debate, the group finally agreed with the first speaker. They reached their conclusion through a systematic analysis based on comparative studies in the context of a grand historical vision. Several major scholars and sociologists, with important roles in Five Spice Street’s ideological realm, took part. The third speaker (Dr. C) impatiently asserted his viewpoint, never imagining that this would lead to a fiasco: the elites of our community shouldn’t be underestimated!
The first speaker’s (Dr. A) opinion was that the one who took the initiative was Mr. Q, although on the surface, Madam X was a lot more active (for the moment, let’s hypothesize that the two persons were two factors) and also seemed constitutionally to be an aggressor, and it appeared that Mr. Q was very passive, as if he were an idiot who had fallen into her trap. Mr. Q-this factor-appeared to be so simple and innocent that it was absolutely plausible that Madam X-this factor-accosted him and tore his clothes off, toying with him as if with a puppet and treating him in a way he didn’t deserve. But this scenario describes the way average people would think. It could not delude our Five Spice Street’s elites. They’ve read widely and think profoundly. They don’t jump to a superficial conclusion. The debate matured us. We applied the scientific method to history and made strict distinctions and deductions before confirming our agreement with Dr. A. The writer presents excerpts from the three speakers’ comments:
Dr. A: From the standpoint of physiology, it is categorically impossible for a woman to have taken the initiative. Even less can it be said that she took the offensive. Despite being aggressive, combative, and energetic on the surface, Madam X couldn’t have contravened natural law. Unless she is physiologically abnormal or isn’t a woman at all, she is essentially passive. If that’s so, who made the first move is even less of a question. Only inexperienced boys and impotent men welcome the myth of the aggressive female. No normal male can accept this kind of sexual experience. Even thinking about it makes them uneasy. Some find it monstrous and frightening.
No, we needn’t waste more time on it. The problem is nonexistent. Only because this woman has an abnormal character do we vacillate and abandon common sense. Our premise is that she is a woman. Therefore, we can look at her only as a woman. If, however, she is a monster, then our premise is false. I’ve seen a lot of women who are aggressive and powerful, but once they’re in bed, don’t they act the same? Can they turn the world upside down? In fact, they themselves don’t wish to. They realize that only by making themselves more feminine can they achieve the joy they seek. Their behavior during the day is intended simply to raise their status in the eyes of the crowd, to create a good self-image, as if they were above men. Men understand their psychology and smile a little with tolerance and understanding. Men don’t puncture this little drama, because it’s a trivial matter-irrelevant and insignificant. The only thing that matters is what occurs at night. A man might even allow his beloved to show off a little in public, because this expresses the woman’s ‘‘character.’’ Men are vain: they want their women to have character. They welcome it. The finer a figure a woman cuts, the prouder her spouse feels.
Women have been like this through the ages. They need to be cherished and also pampered. Men know this. Madam X was unusual in actually challenging men, but how could she escape the destiny of being a woman? I assure you that in the first second in the dark granary, she was panicky and weak, as any other woman would have been, and felt compelled to submit. It goes without saying that the one who took the initiative was Mr. Q. In considering problems, one must not look at the surface, but must pierce to the essence with blade-like eyes. Regrettably, most people can’t do this: all they know is blind belief and surveillance. They create bizarre stories. Our people’s inertia is too strong and deficient in conscious activity! Yesterday, a simpleton ran up to tell me that Madam X’s supernatural ability had a bewitching power that would make our Five Spice Street women the dominant gender. This fatuous ignorance is laughable. Unfortunately, many people support it.
