“sometimes I wonder if Mary breastfed Jesus. if she cried out when he bit her or if she sobbed when he would not latch. and sometimes I wonder if this is all too vulgar to ask in a church full of men without milk stains on their shirts or coconut oil on their breasts preaching from pulpits off limits to the Mother of God. but then i think of feeding Jesus, birthing Jesus, the expulsion of blood and smell of sweat, the salt of a mother’s tears onto the soft head of the Salt of the Earth, feeling lonely and tired hungry annoyed overwhelmed loving and i think, if the vulgarity of birth is not honestly preached by men who carry power but not burden, who carry privilege but not labor, who carry authority but not submission, then it should not be preached at all. because the real scandal of the Birth of God lies in the cracked nipples of a 14 year old and not in the sermons of ministers who say women are too delicate to lead.”

me:

céline sciamma’s voice in my head: cinema is built on male gaze, cinema is basically propaganda for male gaze, male gaze is convention. so female gaze would be departing from convention. it’s about bringing a new narrative on screen. like, for instance, the fact that this love story relies on strong equality means that the scenes are not gonna be built around conflict. so we are departing from the narrative of conflict. and we basically live in narrative of conflict. we are being told, a lot so by your culture, that a good scene is a good bargain. if you depart from that narrative you create a new tension because equality is full of surprises. equality, inclusivity, they bring surprise. they bring new tension in the room that is not built around conflict.
