Formalities, Oil on canvas

The advantages and disadvantages of being a woman are made a subject of controversy every day. Women are dynamic. I know that every woman has it in her to be independent, strong, and respectable. Sexist talk is what it is, merely talk. There is no way to stop every hurtful word and ill-formed opinion. A form of degradation is sexual objectification, but that role can lend itself to the revelation of serious and stunning truths about what it is to be female, and with it the light sting of humor that accompanies lingering stereotypes.
