I read somewhere that Miranda Kerr has recently declared: "I am a traditional woman: the man has to be quite manly". I confessed that both affirmations of the statement scare me a little. A traditional woman is an un-tameable creature, a being not completely comprehensible, much less vulnerable than any other woman and freer. A manly man is, on the other side, a chivalrous ideal, a life full of duties and responsibilities, with many backdoor escapes. Both existences are harder than any other. That might be the reason, however, why most of people, most of us, resigned, or tend to resign.
Ryuji, the sailor whom Mishima made fall from Grace with the sea, was a simple man in the eyes of Fusako. She "needed a guarantee for safety, for she had pampered herself too long, avoided danger in any form". It seemed vitally important to her that "the man with whom she was involved be down-to-earth". She was convinced, also, that "Ryuji was not the sort of man to burden her financially".
How many young women you know today who can say that the men they are with fail to comply with one or another requirements -if not both- Fusako was so sure about?
