The reason why I always want to research feminism is that I believe woman are still disadvantage groups in the world , especially the physical disparity between men and woman ,we can never be equal ,even woman work hard ,study hard ,we can be a financially independent ,spiritual independent modern woman ,but when a man’s fist hits us, we can do nothing but suffer .
I used to work on feminism about Aesthetic bullying ,man control the aesthetic area ,they create beauty what they think is beauty . I think it’s time for us to create beauty with female’s own consciousness and aesthetic.
During this independent study ,I traveled to some countries and want to find some new inspiration for my project, but i experienced some very bad things that changes me a lot ,I realized that woman’s safety is really a big problem in today ,and it is a more urgent matter than aesthetic bullying that I should work for.
When I traveled to France with my friend ,one day night ,we were been robbed by more than 6 masked black man ,they stole my friend’s bag and phone and beat her ,at that time ,a local man happened pass by, i cried out to him for help ,but he refused to help us and just run away ,we were terribly scared and had a strong feeling of helpless,then just watch those criminal do what they want (all of our carry-on belongings and commit violence ),even we call the police, they don’t take it seriously, because it happens a lot .
After this accident ,besides physical injured ,the mental damage is more seriously ,when i travel alone to some other country ,even at the daytime walking on the street ,i will be very scared if i meet some tall ,strong, weird man, not to mention going to the bar for a drink at night.
I can not help to think about that night, if we were man ,i think we might not been robbed ,or even we are been robbed, we can fight against them ,but we are woman ,short and delicate, we can do nothing but cry in such a dangerous situation, and if i were a man ,i can go anywhere without worries, this is a manifestation of gender inequality, we have to admit that male innate physical strength is a threaten to woman to some extent.So ,how can we insurance the woman’s safety based on the gender physical disparity?
