Dojoji Temple and the Maiden Who ALMOST Got Manipulated, Lied to, Fucked Over by a man, a man who TRIED TO RUN FROM ACCOUNTABILITY
Japanese people will tell this kabuki tale and will have you leaving with the point that the woman was obsessive and crazy. That is not the point I left with. The man, the PRIEST, was cocky, selfish, and every other man in the story enables him to run away from accountability. They fully enable him and help him hide.
She did that for all of us. As a message to all of them.
“Don’t do that shit again, to any of us. Because we will do this if you try that again.”
When a woman stands up for herself, she stands up for mother fucking ALL OF US. The mother becomes unfucked.
