I was thinking about the sexual dynamics that I can try and affect in people
In "As You Like It" there's a clever theme where every main character gets exactly what they want out of life. Most of the side characters also get this. At first, the things they want destroy their current life. All are forced to flee persecution, and come together in the end for a final joy.
The story is beautiful, the writing is incredibly deep with several words like
> ipse
"this"
still being mistranslated or abused from Shakespeare's wit. That said the characters are, on purpose, complete fantasy even in their actions. It's incredible that a single one was given a single joy, an amateur fighter besting a champ or a woman leaving her father to be rich. All of these people would have been killed in the persecutory phase, in real life.
Reading the way Shakespeare writes women makes me realize again--women can not feel love. No woman has ever said anything close to the words of Rosalint, no woman has ever been old enough to hold a sword and kept her virginity in tact, near every woman I met had a bill of sale stuffed in her arse. Trying to manipulate a woman is trying to manipulate a tiger, a fiend, a demon. Words mean nothing, reason and God they cannot see. I will feed them until they love me, and I will use that to turn them on their master.
