Feminist theories

Hi, everyone!
Today was a hottest day, wasn't it?!

Plum, I was moved by your very kind and detailed explanations.
I, of course, want to read your works about Marxist feminist theory.
Could you give me them by email after coming back?
Now, I printed out "Different Types of Feminist Theories".
It is interesting that 'there are as many definitions of feminism as there are feminists.'
Those theories seem difficult for me, but I'll try them.
Thank you for all your help.

Azalea, did you join the TIME reading group?
These days my TIME was stacked on my desk.
It is waste of money...

So, good night, friends!

Good morning, Cherry and everyone.

I joined the Time group last September though, I suspended to attend the meeting. At least I make myself read one article I like the best. Group members are nice and kind. Why not join the group. So you don't keep the time magazine waste.

I can't beleive 2,000 yen potato chips and fried fish . It reminds me of party size dish.
I can imagine good ambience of the restraurant which draws the attention besides it is built on the beach.
I could eat it at less than 3 dollar at the self-service food shop in Jenolan caves in 1994. In addition, King Parrots liked them,
they waited for a chance to eat them. We were easily tartgeted.
In a picture, my daughter fed them and in another picture, a king parrot was dipicted in a poster or sign, it said Please Don't Feed The Birds. We were ducks with green onion.

Alice, that's right.

Now I am going to go for a walk after the fashion of Plum.

Hi, everyone???
It is nice and sunny in Sydney. Pleasantly warm, and a perfect day for going on a picnic.

Cherry, I will send you my writing about Marxist feminist theory upon returning to Nagoya. I am very glad that you have interest in reading it.

It is going to be another quiet day today.

I found, on the table in the lounge, a booklet entitled PREPARATION FOR YOUR DELIVERY or something like that, published by the Royal Hospital for Women.

I browsed through it and found some drawings, one of which demonstrates that two people (one is a husband and another a nurse?) hold from the back a delivering woman who is squatting on a bed. A mirror is placed underneath her vagina so that she could look at her baby coming out of it. Is this the way it is in Australia?

It is quite a shocking picture, and there are no drawings which depict familiar scenes in a delivery room in a Japanese clinic or hospital.

Some women are said to prefer birth giving in the water, in the case of which, a husband wearing a swim costume holds his wife, who is squatting in the bathtub filled with water, holds her also from the back, and another person in the water takes up the baby coming out of its mother. Probably, in this style, a mirror would not be used.

Is this the way my daughter likes it, I wonder? Anyway, in her bag, she said there was Yoji’s swimwear.

She is now baking a carrot cake, and delicious smell which attracts my attention and stimulates my appetite is coming from the kitchen.

I will go and take a look. Bye, now, my dear friends.
I will talk to you again tomorrow.
