I blogged a couple of days ago
about dresses teaching young girls to become feminine, heterosexual women. Normal, in other words.
Well here is what I saw the other day at my local Walmart.
A slim, tallish woman, with very short hair, was squatting in the furniture section looking at something on a shelf close to the ground. She was kind of hidden by all the merchandise around her, but she still was visible for someone coming around the corner.
Which is where I came from.
And there she was, legs spread out, with her long summer dress, which despite its length was designed with long splits that easily fall open. I presume this would be to let in some of the summer breeze in heatwaves like what we have now.
But I'm sure the dress isn't that modest even when she's standing, and the slits are deliberately designed to expose legs. But crouching the way she was, the dress flew open, exposing all her privates.
Perhaps she is a dancer and she's used to squatting like this. Her underwear was black and sturdy, not some flimsy lingerie-type thong. She looked kind of athletic.
Or she is a lesbian and is just waiting for some female to walk by and recognize her advances for some lesbian adventure in Walmart's basement, without being overtly pornographic about it. If someone confronted her, all she would have to say was that she was looking for something low down.
In any case, it was rather shocking. Imagine if a young girl (teen-aged and vulnerable) HAD seen her? The prowlers of iniquity are everywhere now. And they have the full support of the media: advertisements, commercials, news, sitcoms, movies, magazines, books, libraries. The world is now a smorgasbord of lesbian sex. Take your pick.
But still she has to be cautious. Parents still (always) want their children to grow up to be heterosexual. The real percentage of "out" homosexuals is still minuscule. Films and sitcoms present gay characters as though they are battling some societal taboo: that they are not normal.
So lesbians who prowl in mall basements need to cover their moves with pretend shelf browsing.
Also, she probably saw me and was posing for my benefit. I am old enough to know better.
It was disconcerting for a minute. I went back again to make sure I saw what I saw, which was indeed what I saw.
I walked slowly away. A little further on, I made the sign of the cross: "Protect me, Lord, from the evil around me."
I have strength from prayer and the protection of God. What will that young girl, full of the glossed-over imagery of lesbian sex, have to protect her?

I've labeled this post "Reclaiming Beauty." Beauty is in the definition of the sexes, their specific roles and their behaviour following God's command.
There is something creepy - ugly and secretive - about a lesbian woman. This particular one's furtive behaviour shows that she is following Satan's command to disrupt and dismantle our world: to destroy the feminine and replace it with some undefinable creature instead.
