Central heating is supposed to be on here in the library. I mean, I can hear it but damn there’s no way I can feel it.

Oh, it’s like a deja-vu. Oh wait, they’re just stupid.

Young Girls and Lust

Usually I’ll say something like “Ru Oshiba is cool” or “Morimoto Leo is sexy” which prompts people to send me letters like “Personally, I have nothing against homosexuals. Novala-san, good luck to you and try your best despite how the world views you.” I don’t have any particular issues with thinking about homosexuals. But the truth is, since I am not one, I always get into trouble when I feel like I should justify that somehow.

Young ladies love homosexuals. From the Takabatake Kashou paintings of forbidden gay love between beautiful young boys, to Takemiya Keiko’s generation-defining work “The Song of Wind and Trees,” homosexuals are an eternal theme for young ladies. Why is it that young ladies like homosexuality (usually among young boys)? Because it is the origin of a young lady’s warped sexual desire. The lust of the young lady is like the lust of ten thousand people. However, an elegant young lady will not allow her straight desire to emerge at first (like in an issue of Popteen).

Gender contains both curiosity and repugnance, longing and anxiety, reality and acceptance, a young lady’s sexual desire is like making one’s way through a labyrinth. Inside this complex labyrinth brews the young lady’s desire for her flesh to personally participate in this gay love. Their perfect aesthetic would be the “fantasy homosexual.” The young girl closes herself in a fictional world to maintain the balance of her libido. I’m not sure, but maybe the included narcissism and negativity of vita sexualis is greatly troubling to the actual gay community. But such things are not important to the fundamentally self-centered young lady.

In actuality, we are frightened of true love. If we can hold onto a love which is like a kiss underneath the lilac tree, perhaps that would be wonderful. But we aren’t really good at that. True love is derived from an animal-like instinct which ends up being a double edged sword, and we need to be made to realize this. Nevertheless, we can’t completely forget the concept of true love. We hold a birth-defect Eros, which causes our easy-going instincts to mutiny. The town overflows with pure libido, and just like the love in a Chage & Aska song, no splinter of imagination lies in this doglike love.

Honestly, direct love is not insignifigant. A young lady should become used to the entanglements of restraint as her essential condition, if she is searching for a Baroque-style anguished love. Like the pipe dream of the young boy with the translucent body and the chestnut hair, like two peas in a pod with slender fingers intertwined, breathing reciprocal breaths. Eyes sparkling, surrounded by flowers. Long ago, the flesh deviated from itself to create a sort of ultra-flesh. The evasive little girl’s hobbies and her abusive lack of contemplation; that is a young girl’s existentialism.

Jovencitas y Lujuria

No es raro escucharme decir algo como “Ru Oshiba es genial” o “Morimoto Leo es sexy”, lo que lleva a la gente a enviarme cartas como “Personalmente no tengo nada contra los homosexuales. Novala-san, buena suerte y ánimo pese a la visión que el mundo tenga de ti.” No tengo ningún problema especial con pensar en homosexuales. Pero la verdad es que, como no lo soy, siempre estoy en problemas cuando creo que tengo que justificar eso de algún modo.

Las jóvenes doncellas adoran a los homosexuales. Desde los dibujos de Takabatake Kashou de amor homosexual prohibido entre jóvenes hombres hasta la obra de Takemiya Keiko “La Canción del Viento y los Árboles”, que supuso un desafío generacional, los homosexuales son un punto de atracción para las jóvenes. ¿Cómo es que a las jovencitas les gusta la homosexualidad (especialmente entre chicos jóvenes)? Porque es el origen de el deseo sexual encubierto de dichas señoritas. La lujuria de las jóvenes es como la lujuria de diez mil personas. Sin embargo, una joven dama elegante no permitirá que sus deseos primarios emerjan a la primera (como pasa en cualquier número de la revista Popteen).

El género contiene tanto curiosidad como repugnancia, anhelo y ansiedad, realidad y aceptación. El deseo sexual de una joven doncella es como encontrar tu camino a través de un laberinto. Dentro del complejo laberinto, se cultiva el deseo de la chica de participar, de sentir en sus propias carnes en ese amor gay. El término estético perfecto sería “fantasía homosexual”. La joven doncella se encierra a sí misma en su mundo ficticio para mantener el equilibrio de su libido. No estoy seguro de ello, pero puede que el narcisismo asentado y la negatividad de la vida sexual que llevan esté dañando enormemente a la comunidad gay. Pero eso no tiene ninguna importancia para la jovencita que está principalmente centrada en sí misma.

En la actualidad, tenemos miedo del amor verdadero. Si pudiéramos limitarnos a un amor que fuera como un beso bajo un árbol de lilas, puede que eso fuera maravilloso. Pero no son tan buenos como para eso. El amor verdadero deriva de un instinto animal que acaba siendo un arma de doble filo, y es necesario que nos percatemos de ello. Sin embargo, no podemos olvidar el concepto del verdadero amor. Llevamos con nosotros el Eros por defecto de nacimiento, que causa nuestros instintos de amotinamiento. La ciudad se llena de pura libido y, como el amor en una canción de Chage y Aska, no hay ni una pizca de imaginación en ese amor propio de perros.

Sinceramente, el amor directo no es insignificante. Una joven dama debería acostumbrarse a las complicaciones de su compostura como condición esencial, si lo que busca es un angustiado amor al más puro estilo del Barroco. Como los sueños íntimos de un joven muchacho de cuerpo traslúcido y pelo castaño, como dos guisantes en una vaina con delgados dedos entrelazados, respirando mutuamente sus alientos. Ojos resplandecientes rodeados de flores. Hace mucho, la carne se pervirtió a sí misma para crear algo así como la ultra-carne. Las aficiones evasivas de las chicas y su abusiva falta de contemplación; ese es el existencialismo de una jovencita.

A Psichology Gentle on Love

When asked, people will say, “My ideal man is a kind man who is handsome and tall and smart, and rich and tolerant and will love only me,” but when it comes down to it they go and end up marrying a man who isn’t handsome or tall or smart, and who, to make things worse, isn’t particularly rich and doesn’t seem all that tolerant either. And when they say everything, it comes across like this. “He’s not my type, but he was really kind.” Ah, isn’t that a foolish thing to say. They’ve broken from their own noble ideal and without trying to recognize how they’ve chosen the easy comprimise, they attempt to justify everything under the indulgence of “kindness” (men are the same way too but…).

Is there a boy in existance who isn’t kind to the girl he loves? No matter how incompetent a boy he is, he’s naturally going to seem overflowing in kindness. Conversely speaking, an incompetent boy will have no skill other than using kindess as a weapon, a boy who’s introduced with “kindness is his strong point,” namely, that is nothing more than imcompetence. If it comes to the point where you have to make an excuse and say, “but he’s really kind,” then you’d really be better to declare your defeat and say bravely, “I’ve given up on my ideal, and chosen this guy with nothing to redeem himself but kindness. What a shame.” The ugliness of a couple who gloss over their natural desires and together comprimise, nuzzling together as if they were at the same time trying to lick their wounds, is a serious crime to this world. And because of exactly that, nature is a wonderful thing. Volcanoes erupt and tsunami’s rage. In reality there’s an attractiveness in their maliciousness, they arrouse us with curiosity into submission. If you sink into a calm lake you will drown, and even a refreshing wind carries sickness. There’s not even a fragment of kindess in them.

We may be spoken of as arrogant for it, but we have to have our ideal wedding with our ideal love. Feelings of love that know not of that ideal are nothing but sexual desire. “Kindness” rejects advancement and progress towards the future. “Kindness” connotes a conservative fear that tries to mantain the existing status quo. A love found with clashing swords, where together you don’t let your gaurd down, will make love a sublimation of culture. Therefore, love becomes the thing of books, of music, and invites us to emotional reaction. You don’t come to search for peace in love. This is a battle. Abandon that easy love you’ve started to be pressed into, and push on like a tank into the raging billows of a love that cannot be granted. You handsome and tall and smart prince, who is rich and tolerant and will love only you, and is also incidentially kind, is waiting in the deep forest for the day you will come to him.

Una Amable Psicología sobre el Amor

Al preguntarle, cualquier chica dirá “Mi hombre ideal es guapo, y alto, y listo, y rico, y tolerante y me querrá solo a mí”, pero cuando llega el momento de la verdad, acaba casándose con un hombre que no es ni guapo, ni alto ni inteligente y, lo que es peor, no es especialmente rico ni parece ser para nada tolerante. Cuando el tema sale a colación, la excusa suele ser “No es mi tipo, pero es muy amable”. Ah… ¿No es una estupidez decir eso? Han renunciado a su noble ideal y, sin ni siquiera la decencia de reconocer que han tomado el camino fácil, tratan de justificarlo todo bajo la indulgencia de la “amabilidad” (los hombre son iguales, pero…)

¿Existe algún chico que no sea amable con la chica a la que ama? Sin importar lo incompetente que sea, un chico va a rebosar amabilidad de forma natural en tal caso. Por tanto, un chico incompetente no tendrá más habilidad que la amabilidad como arma; un chico que cuyo punto a destacar cuando se habla de él sea la amabilidad no es nada más que un patán. Si llega el momento en el que tienes que utilizar como excusa “pero es muy amable”, mejor declara tu derrota y di con valentía “He renunciado a mi ideal, y he elegido a este tío que no tiene nada más que amabilidad. Qué pena.” La monstruosidad de una pareja que pasa por alto sus deseos naturales se comprometen a ello, que se se acaricia como si tratara de al mismo tiempo de lamer sus heridas, es un serio crimen para este mundo. Y exactamente por eso, la naturaleza es algo maravilloso. Los volcanes entran en erupción y los maremotos inundan con ira. Realmente hay un atractivo en su maldad que nos excita y suscita curiosidad por la sumisión. Si te sumerges en un tranquilo lago, te ahogarás, e incluso la refrescante brisa trae consigo enfermedad. No hay ni una pizca de amabilidad en ellos.

Puede que se nos considere arrogantes por ello, pero tenemos nuestra boda ideal con nuestra pareja ideal. Los sentimientos de amor que salen fuera de ese ideal no son otra cosa que deseo sexual. La “amabilidad” supone un rechazo a los avances y progresos hacia el futuro. La “amabilidad” implica un miedo conservativo que trata de mantener el status quo existente. Un amor que supone un choque de espadas, en el que estando juntos no puedes bajar la guardia, hace del amor una sublimación de la cultura. Por tanto, el amor se convierte en aquello que vemos en libros, en música, y nos invita a reaccionar de forma emotiva. Uno no busca la paz en el amor. El amor es una batalla. Abandona ese amor fácil que en el que has tratado de embutirte y sigue adelante como un tanque hacia las iracundas olas de un amor que no puede darse por sentado. Tu príncipe guapo, y alto y listo, que es rico y tolerante y te querrá solo a ti, y que resulta ser, además, amable está esperando en el profundo bosque el día en el que vayas a él.
