摘要:Feeding Desire by R. Popenoe In the contemporary world, the perception of female sexuality and beauty varies dramatically. In spite of the dominant western view on female beauty, which is based on thinness of female body,
uality.
However, in actuality, such a conclusion is not absolutely convincing. At any rate, the profound analysis of evidences given by the author implies that socializing sexuality is not the major purpose or function of the process of fattening, but what is really important is the social status which the fatness of a woman symbolizes. In this respect, it is important to underline that it is not only the high social status of a woman proper that may be distinguished by her fatness, but it is also the social status of her husband. In such a way, it is possible to presuppose that the process of fattening is beneficial in a way not only to the social status of women, but also and mainly to the social status of men. Obviously, on choosing a fat wife, an Azawagh man can emphasize his social status and wealth.
Strangely enough, the author, intentionally or not, ignores these obvious facts and conclusions that may be drawn from her own evidences and the entire research. To prove this fact, it is primarily necessary to focus more carefully on the process of fattening. In actuality, this process, as it has been already mentioned above, consists of two major components: the diet and the sedative lifestyle. These two components perfectly prove the righteousness of the presupposition that socialization of sexuality is, at least, secondary compared to the emphasis on the social status of both men and women.
Firstly, it should be said that the diet, which stimulates and accelerates the process of fattening, naturally implies significant material resources and wealth of the family of a woman. Taking into consideration the fact that the processing of fattening begins at the early age, it would be logical to presuppose that a family, in which a girl grows, should possess significant wealth and material resources to feed the girl since, as a rule, Azawagh families have several children. Consequently, excessive feeding of girls and women is directly dependent on the social position of the family. It proves beyond a doubt that poor families can hardly afford feeding girls since early childhood. Obviously, richer family will have better results, because girls that grow in rich families will apparently have better nutrition, while poor families will not be able to afford nutrition for girls equal to that which girls in rich families can receive. In such a context, the process of fattening has little in common with sexuality.
Furthermore, it is possible to prove that the social status as the major factor that stimulates the process of fattening by the fact that the process of fattening naturally implies the sedative lifestyle of a girl. It also proves beyond a doubt that representatives of lower classes are forced to work since the early age and girls are not an exception from this rule. Consequently, girls growing in families that have a lower social status will have to work and, therefore, they will have less sedative lifestyle, which girls growing in upper-class families can enjoy freely, because they do not need to work. At the same time, it is necessary to remember that worse nutrition and more active lifestyle cannot contribute to the process of fattening of representatives of lower classes, while better nutrition and sedative lifestyle stimulates fattening, which becomes a mark of the social status of a woman.
Moreover, it is important to underline that the ultimate goal of the process of fattening is a successful marriage, which does n
