How do feminist mums of dds square the circle of bringing them up to feel they have the right to wear what they want, have a positive attitude to sex, etc AND stay safe at the same time?
(104 Posts)Finding this hard now my dd is a teen - she wants to wear micro-minis and make-up etc - she knows she looks good and enjoys the positive attention from boys as well as other girls. As a feminist, I don't want to tell her she can't wear what she wants because people might get the wrong idea etc ie akin to blaming the victim - but as her mum, I want her to be safe, and not give boys the impression she's up for all things sexual because she isn't.
It was easy for my mum's generation - she could just say that 'nice girls don't' and that basically sex was not nice and best avoided until obligatory in marriage - not correct,but at least unambiguous. 'Nice girls' also didn't wear short skirts etc. But trying to give positive messages about sex whilst also making it clear it's best left till lots older (she's 13) and about the right to dress to please herself whilst also understanding that other people will judge you on the basis of what you wear, is a rather tricky balance to express.
How do other mums deal with this, please?
In your op you said you wanted her to wear what she wants ..... But still stay safe.
So safety is your motive - lovely
As I said earlier there is no correlation between sexual assault and clothing - therefore changing the way she chooses to dress might make you feel she is safer - but it will make no difeerenxe to her safety
If you had said you wanted her to wear what she wants to .... Nf not have other women judge her for being x y z (choose your offensive word) then clothing would be a relevant discussion point
I agree with Freya
And on thighs, a few decades ago it was ankles. Just fashion. In some societies breasts are seen as no more than a bit of a woman's body that at some point might be used to feed children. A lot of stuff in our society is fetishised. Esp women's body parts. And, sadly, breasts, hence women feeling really uncomfortable with BF in public.
Oh it's not the thighs that worry me - it's the fact that when she bends over even a tiny bit (or presumably walks upstairs etc) you can see her knickers!
Name me a society in which knickers are not a sexual interest or research proving this. If it was just her thighs on display don't think I'd be that bothered...
People further down the thread mentioned that they felt a bit sorry for boys with regard to the way girls dress.
Why please?
My DS is 14 and it's never occurred to me to feel sorry for him because of the way his female classmates dress. Am I very remiss?
To put it bluntly, I think the less of a fuck everyone shows they give about how girls and women are dressed, the more confident girls and women will be. If girls want to wear a miniskirt or a full length victorian gown that's completely irrelevant to their abilities, their intelligence and their interest in sex. She's young and beautiful and she has the right to cover her body (or not) in whatever she wants. It's about looking what she sees as "nice", not scrawling a message across herself saying "up for it" - so any comment about "slappers" or similar will just make her think (quite rightly) that you don't "get" her and quite frankly have a bit of a dirty mind
"clothing likely to attract sexual comments or even hassle" - that'll be any clothes when worn on a female body then? Haven't you seen those blogs where women post pictures of the clothes they were wearing when they were raped/assaulted? Given that most attacks like this happen in the home a girl is probably more at risk wearing a dressing gown than fishnets out on the town.
Really glad that you're being more supportive of her, I'm sure she'll appreciate it in the long run. Her taste will change over time, god knows the gruesome things I wore as a 13 year old were NOT an indication of a future turning up to work in a one-strap lycra minidress.
Sorry, that wasn't really advice. If I were you I would:
- positively reinforce all her good qualities and abilities, not just her looks
- teach her that anyone who judges her based on her appearance/clothing is a total idiot
- discuss with her whether she's ever been catcalled etc (REGARDLESS of clothing, it's not the issue) and possible good ways to react/respond, both externally and internally
- talk to her about consent, and emphasise that whether she talks to/hugs/holds hands with/snogs a boy is totally and always HER choice, and people who think otherwise need their heads examined
- be happy that she is so confident! Being 13 is the pits so if she feels good about herself now you've probably brought up an independent young person
There is no correlation between dress and attack so make sure you don't suggest to her that there is. You could change your own thoughts. Believe girls have a right to show their sexuality, that we ought to be allowed to be totally naked more often than is currently allowed.
I don't know Basil, but I did once overhear a comment by a church leader (I am personally not religious but my friend is and it was at her child's birthday party) about how there was a lot of temptation around for teenage boys and it was good for teenage boys to come to church and church youth groups because the girls there tended to dress more modestly and it was easier on the boys!
I was totally that this was current thinking, in the UK in 2013. It sounded like something from the Deep South. I didn't say anything because I didn't want to make a scene at my friend's DC birthday party, but it troubled me quite a lot.
What a terrible opinion of teenage boys.
It's horrible how determined some adults are to turn perfectly nice boys into total wankers in between the ages of 12 and 17. Because we all know that kids live up to (or down to) your expectations of them.
Why do so many adults consign boys to the "will be a tosser" corner before they have a chance to develop into decent men? WTF is wrong with these adults?
Elephants - thanks for structured advice. I have already done point 3 - pointing out that her body is hers and no-one has a right to do anything she is not happy with ever - and will touch on more as she gets older.
But I don't really agree with your last point - I don't feel she is wearing small clothes out of confidence - more out of a desire to fit in with a fashion and attract positive attention from boys - she is aware, even if some on this thread deny it, that the wearing of short skirts and boys fancying you can be correlated! I'd like her to not feel the need to do that, to have the inner confidence that she can wear what she likes and any boy worth knowing won't judge her for that, that her real beauty is within not just without...but I'm planning to work on that.
Lots of helpful comments, thanks...
BayBasilEater - I don't know about the church leader but I don't think anyone else on this thread has suggested all teenage boys are 'tossers'. I daresay some are but some people of all groups are.
Without wanting to massively stereotype, we're not talking about some naice middle class boys but very "street smart" teenagers on an estate and a lot of them do outwardly express a lot of sexism, because to not treat women as objects marks you out as "not a man". But, it's still not a reason to assume that teenagers are slaves to their hormones etc.
I don't think anyone meant that wearing short skirts and boys noticing you wasn't correlated. Short skirts are something that in our culture are considered to be attractive to men. Boiler suits aren't!
What people have been saying (I think) is that the wearing of short skirts isn't correlated with sexual assault, and that to suggest that someone unfortunate enough to have been assaulted could have prevented it by dressing more modestly is victim blaming.
Sorry, I should have been clear that I meant physical confidence. It's a great thing to have and I hope she keeps it.
And yeah, all teenagers want people to fancy them - why wouldn't they? You're looking at it from a perspective of someone who has had relationships, probably long ones - she is still probably at that "Will I ever get a boyfriend?" stage, or if she isn't her friends are. She needs reassuring that she is attractive and at the moment (still being a kid) she gets that from people telling her she is, like, well fit.
Hi breadandbutterfly, I wasn't meaning to imply people on this thread were of the opinion that teenage boys are tossers - I was referring to the adults Yoni referred to, the ones who seem to automatically expect teenage boys to be awful.
What amazes me about these people, is that some of them at least, must themselves have sons. What on earth has given them the idea that their DS's are destined to be horrible people, even though they are the ones who have brought them up and given them their values? I can't quite get my head around it. Is it that they think that the culture around us is so strong that they can't fight it and they might as well just accept that they will lose their sons to it, is it that they think men are inherently horrible so it doesn't matter how they've brought their sons up, or is it something else altogether? It baffles me tbh, it seems to me to be such a betrayal of their sons, I get really uncomfortable around people who talk about their boys like that.
I agree that other people's reactions to her clothing are for them to manage not her. But at the same time, we all should dress appropriately and with respect for others.
I don't like it when men take off their tops and wander round town centres in nothing but shorts as soon as the temperature goes above 20 degrees simply because it feels slightly attention-seeking (in this case a sort of "look at me stripping off because I can" with a slight feeling of entitlement to it). And equally I don't like it when girls feel the need to dress in a sexually attractive way at all possible moments (going to Tesco etc).
It's not about "nice girls don't" - it's just about not needing to be front and centre with your attractiveness at all times. But it's a very hard message for a young, pretty girl to process at this age when that is absolutely the only currency there is.
So I wouldn't be afraid to talk to her about dialling up and down her look. It's not about repressing her but about helping her understand a range of appropriate ways to be a girl. I'm sure she won't listen, btw! But worth always having the conversation.
oh yes, love it. Self-respect is the big one, and also not spending bloody hours on appearance every single day.
no-one else really wants to see your knickers; so if your skirt is that short, you need to spend all your time thinking about how you move. Fine at a party, but why make life so much work all the time?
also teach them not to judge or bitch about others because of THEIR appearance. What goes around, comes around.
oh, and back on topic - everyone needs to stay safe. Girls are a little easier to rape, but both genders need to be armed with common sense.
Stay out of the dark alleys, take the earphones out, look where you are going not at your phone and don't fill your bloodstream with alcohol.
Clothes do send out signals that are not all sexual and you can talk about those to get herto think about the messages she is sending out. For example, you could talk about how some of the teachers at school are probably not that much older than the oldest pupils but look and dress differently from your DD and her friends do, or how how you dress affects how you are treated in some shops (in Pretty Woman the shop assistants refuse to serve Julia Roberts not because of how sexually she is dressed but how cheaply) or by the police (there's a scene in the first series of Mad Men where Don can easily walk out of a building having a police raid whereas Midge and her beatnik friends can't because Don is clearly a wealthy businessman in his suit).
Stay out of the dark alleys, take the earphones out, look where you are going not at your phone and don't fill your bloodstream with alcohol.
None of which will make a blind bit of difference, other than to make the victim feel as though they might, could, should have prevented it.
DD and her cousins wore all sorts of "scandalous" clothes.
Most danger is from people they know rather than strangers so some random staring at them probably isn't the highest risk.
Some women dress for male attention, and I'm pretty judgy about it 'if you try to impress me with a short skirt:FAIL; let's see the codebase'
Breadandbutterfly, I don't mean to imply that people won't make assumptions about somebody wearing a short skirt(you only have to look at this thread to see that is not the case). What I mean is that every type of outfit carries a risk of people making particular judgements about it and having negative responses which could put your daughter at risk.
I think this thread has drifted away from the particular issues you raised, which is the motivations of your daughter (who you presumably think has internalised a lot of messages about valuing herself based on what boys think and how boys respond) and how she dresses. I can see that is a problem in terms of both safety and building of self esteem, because her boundaries are going to be weak because of her sense of self. I could be misinterpreting you though.
I am surprised by how many people on this thread are judging other women based on clothes (not talking about you OP). Does it not make you feel unhappy/isolated/cut off from humanity if you are walking around assuming all manner of negative things about women based on how much makeup or what clothes they wear to the supermarket? As my 15 year old DS says, they are just clothes, they are not who a person is.
Isn't the main thing she should wear what she wants? If other people have a problem with that that's their problem.
Agree Buffy.
I agree that she should wear what she wants. But I think if the OP knows her daughter and thinks there are underlying issues with self esteem and confidence that needs addressing. That is very different from seeing a stranger and making assumptions about why they are wearing a certain outfit.

Toyota 4Runner Replacement Brakes Information
Comfortable but tough vehicles including the terrain-mastering Toyota 4Runner were manufactured to handle rough terrain in the city or on the road but in return they need effective maintenance and top-notch parts to keep on challenging those wild frontiers. If a problem comes up or a component needs to be replaced, don't try to save with a low-grade component. Your Toyota 4Runner deserves efficiency-optimized auto parts to deliver maximum power. When you selected the Toyota, you selected a car of high quality and great value; you want to backstop your choice by using only the finest parts and components. Nobody else has a heritage of reliable performance to put beside world renowned Toyota and their ubiquity is for good reason. Toyota is known for manufacturing cars and trucks that feature superior resale value and consistent durability. For countless years consumers have believed in Toyota to engineer long lasting trucks that are known for good gas mileage. Toyota 4Runner Brakes are composed of a series of elements and components used to slow your vehicle by transforming kinetic energy, or speed, into heat energy. The principal components of modern braking systems include the brake calipers, brake shoes, brake pads, brake rotors, and fluid lines. Every component of your brakes is required for proper braking; if any component needs replacement, it's vital to repair or replace it quickly using quality replacement parts. Dodge disproportionate risk while driving by insuring that your vehicle is equipped with the safety-related equipment that you need. No matter the part, heaters and defrosters to steering elements, maintaining your car or truck with top quality parts is the smartest move, time after time. Driving a Toyota was an intelligent choice, now keeping it in showroom condition is even smarter! Sometimes the most difficult thing about fixing an older vehicle is looking for an honest source for trustworthy parts.

Hellraiser 4 (IV): Bloodline (1996) Horror Movie Review
Horror movies Review
They should have stopped with the third one. This movie was so bad. Some of the F/X was pretty cool but the movie period isn't worth watching. It just wasnt as good as the frist three movies. And whats the deal with that Princess. Like I dont want to see her, I wanted to see Pinhead. But I guess if you like the Hellraiser movies you might like this one. I recommend this movie to anyone who likes the Hellraiser movie or a horror movie.
In the 22nd century, a scientist attempts to right the wrong his ancestor created: the puzzle box that opens the gates of Hell and unleashes Pinhead and his Cenobite legions.

Gowlland, Geoffrey (2009) 'Style, Skill and Modernity in the Zisha Pottery of China.' The Journal of Modern Craft, 2 (2). pp. 129-141.
In this article I present a reflection on the themes of personal style, skill and tradition, in a discussion of the making of zisha pottery (also known as Yixing pottery) produced in the Jiangsu Province of China. I ask why the notion of style, or fengge, is so important for artisans in the contemporary context. I show that it is not a contradiction for artisans to speak both of precision in techniques and of development of personal style. I also discuss how some innovations in techniques change the relation between skill and style, and argue that discourses on style in zisha ceramics must be understood in the context of competition in an economy of fame, and of wider discourses about the disappearance of "traditional" techniques.

Why did Yair Lapid deny that he'd smoked marijuana and risk being exposed to the public? Why in 2013 can't an Israeli politician just say he smoked when he was young but that he stopped long ago and opposes it now?
3 commentsHaaretz Editorial
Potential partners in the next coalition cannot say they didn't know that the Netanyahu-Lieberman policy on Israeli-Palestinian peace was one of 'crisis management' at best.
1 commentsLaw enforcement and the courts must convey the clear message that sports stadia and pitches are not outside the law. Such a message will be conveyed only if significant indictments are filed and harsher penalties imposed as a rule.
3 commentsThe Turkel Committee wanted what is best for Israel and the IDF. Now we must demand that the government and army not engage in foot-dragging or try to sweep the report's important conclusions under the carpet, but instead implement them promptly, exactly as written.
1 commentsAfter four years as U.S. president, Barack Obama is hastening to try to save Israel from itself; centrist parties wishing to join the coalition must now pay their dues and embark on a diplomatic rescue mission.
5 commentsThe 120 members of Israel's new Knesset bear a heavy responsibility: They must repair the grave damage left behind by their predecessors in the 18th Knesset, damage that threatens Israel's continued operation as a liberal democratic state.
2 commentsThe prime minister and defense minister would rather play James Bond and turn Israeli media into a fighter in the "perception-shaping" army instead of explaining the action and its motives.
4 commentsIsrael is causing grave injustice to dozens of old, poverty-stricken communities that make a living from herding and farming.
6 commentsThe UN's 'built-in bias' against Israel must not serve as yet another excuse for a policy, which at least half of all Israelis oppose.
16 commentsIf Yair Lapid aspires to influence the country, he must insist on receiving the ministries with the greatest influence over the lives of Israel's citizens: the justice and interior portfolios.
1 commentsIt is not sufficient to give the post of foreign minister to someone who is the polar opposite of former Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman. What is needed is a policy that will truly seek to achieve a mix that will provide peace and security.
1 commentsBank of Israel Governor Stanley Fischer's resignation comes on the heels of news that the budget deficit stands at an astounding NIS 39 billion and the consequent demotion of deputy budget director Eyal Epstein.
1 commentsThe prime minister's former bureau chief confessed he acted unacceptably. Instead of setting high moral standards, Netanyahu prefers to keep faith with his crony.
2 commentsOnly 24 hours before the world was set to mark International Holocaust Day, Jerusalem's soccer team unfurled the banner 'Beitar is pure forever.'
5 commentsPrime Minister Netanyahu would do well to forgo presenting a decision dealing mainly with ownership claims over land Bedouin purchased before Israel was founded to the outgoing cabinet on Sunday.
2 commentsBy rejecting Hanin Zuabi out of hand as a partner to any kind of political activity, Lapid joined those responsible for the dangerous trend of excluding Arabs from the Israeli political process.
13 commentsIn the absence of Likud moderates in the next government, following their marginalization on the party's election slate, Lapid will be the representative of liberal Israel.
2 commentsThe Knesset election did not end with a clear decision. Instead, a direction for the future, ahead of the next election, is emerging.
14 commentsThe vote of every citizen who believes in the path of political Zionism and democratic values is crucial, and not casting it is a luxury we cannot afford.
1 commentsIn the final lap before the elections, we are being inundated with candidates' unfounded economic promises.
0 commentsThe term "Judaizing the Galilee" provides allegedly legitimate cover for every benighted racist position that sees the presence of Arabs in the Galilee or anywhere else as a national threat.
4 commentsThe undecided voter has quite a lot of alternatives, but the principle that must guide his or her vote is clear: Weakening the right-wing parties and the Haredim in order to halt Israel's slide into political isolation, fascism and apartheid.
7 commentsThe consecutive incidents in which Palestinians were killed in recent days give the feeling that Palestinian blood may be shed with impunity.
18 commentsThe U.S president's statement conflict with Netanyahu's campaign advertisements, which depict the prime minister as a statesman welcome overseas, and especially in Washington.
2 commentsIsrael's Arab citizens are an important and inseparable part of society and deserve greater representation in the Knesset. An editorial published in three languages.

Tigers host Chipley in Regional Semi-Final at 7:30 Tigers win 29-28 in overtime

If you weren't at Bowles Field Friday night for the Blountstown Tiger's final regular season game of the year, you might have missed one of the most exciting finishes ever.
Lafayette County (Mayo) had jumped out to a 14-0 lead in the first quarter, but the Tigers had tied the game by halftime. Lafayette went ahead 21-14 in the fourth quarter, but the Tigers put together a last minute drive and scored to tie the game with 25 seconds left on the clock. In overtime, Mayo scored and kicked their extra point to go ahead 28-21.
The Tigers scored and elected to go for two points. A timeout by Mayo nullified the Tigers' first two point play. On their second effort, Hunter Jordan dove into the endzone and the Tigers made their homecoming extra special with a 29-28 overtime victory.
The win left the Class 1A District 4 Champion Tigers at 6-4 after a 1-3 start with Chipley coming to Bowles Field Friday night for the regional semi-finals. Chipley defeated Blountstown earlier in the season in Chipley, 16-7. Chipley lost to Bonifay to finish second in their district. The Blountstown win and they will face a rematch with either Liberty County or Holmes County who play Friday night in Bonifay.
The Tigers didn't get off to the start they had hoped for with quarterback Hunter Jordan throwing an interception on the Tigers' first possession. Mayo scored in 5 plays and were ahead 7-0 right out of the gate.
Following a Blountstown punt, Mayo put together a time consuming 83 yard, 12 play drive for a touchdown. The PAT gave them a 14-0 lead and the Tiger faithful were scratching their heads.
Starting from their own 20, the Tigers came alive. Jordan ramble for 20 yards. After a 15 yard penalty against Mayo, Jawon Mosley raced for 32 to the Mayo 13. Marquel Thomas picked up 4 and Jordan picked up a first down at the 2 after dragging defenders for 7. Jordan dove in for the touchdown and Corin Peterson's extra point cut Mayo's lead to 14-7.
The Tiger defense stiffened and forced Mayo to punt. After reaching midfield Mosley lost a fumble to end the drive. Mayo drove to the Tiger 10, but lost a fumble recovered by Javakiel Brigham for the Tigers.
Thomas had a big run of 16 yards, Mosley broke outside for 12 and again for 8. Jordan gained 8 and facing third down and 10, Jordan passed to a wide open freshman Tripp Taylor who made the catch and made it into the endzone for a 31 yard touchdown. Peterson's PAT tied the score at 14-0. Mayo was held to 1 yard on 3 plays on their next possession and were forced to punt as the half ended.
After the Tiger defense forced Mayo to punt on their first possession of the second half, the Tigers took over on their own 15.
Jordan passed to an open Anthony Jones who followed blockers down field. Unfortunately, Jones lost control of the ball after a 61 yard gain and Mayo recovered.
Mayo took over on the Tiger 28 and put together a 17 play, 72 yard drive to regain the lead at 21-14.
After an exchange of punts, the Tigers took over at the Mayo 28 yard line. This drive ended with Mayo intercepting a Jordan pass in the endzone.
The Tiger defense had to get the ball back with time clicking off the clock in the fourth quarter. Thomas Tierney, Brigham, Anthony Williams and Patrick Pitts did just that forcing a Mayo punt.
Faced with fourth and 9 from their own 48, Jordan pitched to Thomas who stopped and passed down field back to Jordan who made a leaping catch for 31 yards and a first down at the Mayo 21. Jordan connected with Ryan Hathcox for 11 yards and on third and 11 Jordan passed to Thomas for the touchdown. Peterson kicked the game tieing extra point with 25 seconds left of the clock.
After time expired, Mayo won the overtime toss and wasted little time in scoring. They kicked the extra point and led 28-21.
Blountstown also scored quickly with Jordan plunging in from the three. Coach Jordan and his coaches met and his players agreed to go for two points to win the game. As Jordan took the snap and went off tackle into the endzone, whistles were blowing. Mayo's coach had called timeout. The Tigers would have to go for two points again. Jordan took the snap and basically ran the same off tackle play. He stretched across the goal line, the officials signaled score, and the homecoming crowd raced onto the field. It was a great victory for the Tigers and their fans.
Jordan completed 6 of 14 passes for 127 yards, 2 touchdowns and 2 interceptions. He also rushed for 93 yards on 20 carries. Mosley added 55 yards on 8 attempts.
Defensively, Brigham, Jordan and Anthony Williams each had 12 tackles. Pitts added 10 tackles followed by Mosley and Tierney with 8 each. Peterson had 7 followed by Jones with 6.
Kickoff Friday night at Bowles Field will be at 7:30 C.T.. All future playoff games will kickoff at 7:30.

Ruby & Sapphire chapter (Adventures)
Ruby & Sapphire chapter Chapter 4 | ||
Ruby, Sapphire, Groudon, Kyogre and Rayquaza | ||
| ||
| ||
| ||
Ruby and Sapphire (Japanese: 第4章 ルビー ・ サファイア編 The Fourth Chapter: Ruby and Sapphire) is the fourth chapter of the Pokémon Adventures manga and it consists of eight volumes. It is the second longest completed chapter of the series, behind Gold, Silver & Crystal chapter.
This chapter features the journeys of Ruby and Sapphire who are trying to conquer all the Pokémon Contests and Gyms in Hoenn respectively within the span of 80 days. However, this gets interrupted by the two new evil organizations, the land-loving Team Magma and sea-loving Team Aqua. Sapphire and Ruby have to worry about something else, too: their feelings for each other.
Omnibus releases
- Main article: List of Pokémon Adventures omnibus volumes
The Ruby & Sapphire chapter was originally planned for a 2011 release as part of Shogakukan's "My First Wide" series of omnibus volumes. The Ruby & Sapphire chapter was chosen due to its high popularity in Japan. A total of three volumes were planned. After the first volume was released, the series was discontinued due to the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami.
In 2014, another omnibus release was announced for the chapter in commemoration of the release of Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. The volumes will be released under Shogakukan's "My First Series" brand, which are bargain-priced volumes sold only in Japanese convenience stores. A total of four volumes were released, beginning with first volume on October 24, 2014.
An English language omnibus release was announced by Shogakukan Asia in early 2015 under the title "Pokémon Adventures: Ruby & Sapphire". This release will consist of four total volumes, the first of which was released in January.
A three-volume omnibus release of the Ruby & Sapphire chapter has also begun in France, starting from December 2014.

text: [[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/joyluckclub_5219.jpg]]''The Joy Luck Club'' is an 1989 novel by Creator/AmyTan, which was adapted into a 1993 film, directed by Wayne Wang. The book centers around four mother-daughter pairs living in SanFrancisco. The mothers are Suyuan Woo, An-Mei Hsu, Lindo Jong, and Ying-ying St. Clair. The daughters are, respectively, Jing-Mei (June) Woo, Rose Hsu Jordan, Waverly Jong, and Lena St. Clair. All of the mothers immigrated from China during their lives, and much of the book talks about their relationships with their mothers, with the exception of Suyuan Woo. The book is structured in sixteen chapters, each narrated in first person by one of the characters; the first four are told by the mothers, the next eight are told by the daughters, and the last four are told by the mothers, all with the exception of Suyuan Woo, who is dead at the beginning of the novel, so Jing-Mei takes her chapters. Most of each chapter is dedicated to a flashback of the narrator's childhood, usually regarding a particular incident or series of events involving that character's mother.----!! Film and book ''The Joy Luck Club'' provide examples of:* AbusiveParents: ** Abusive aunt and uncle in young An-Mei's case. ** Lena thinks she encounters one in the apartment next to her as a child, but it turns out the mother and daughter are only playing. ** In Lindo's case, a forceful abusive mother-in-law who puts a lot of pressure on Lindo and her son to conceive a child.* AdaptationDistillation: The film kept most of the stories (with some changes), but trimmed some parts.* AdaptationExpansion: Some parts were added to the film.* AdaptationPersonalityChange: Ted in the film is depicted as redeemable, thus [[spoiler: being attentive enough to save his marriage with Rose.]] Harold is a more blatant emotional abuser in the film, whereas the book counterpart is just unintentionally condescending.* AdultFear: ** Being forced to abandon your baby girls to the elements in the ''desperate'' hope someone will find and take care of them, because you simply ''can't carry them any more.''** Waverly running away from her mother in a busy street as a child.** 4-year-old Bing's death. While at the beach, he is left unattended for a moment, and ends up accidentally drowning.** Having to make a bargain that when your four-year-old child turns 15, she will leave and marry a SpoiledBrat, and you will never see her again.* ArrangedMarriage: Lindo's first marriage, to a SpoiledBrat.* ArtisticLicenseMusic: At the end of the section Two Kinds, she mentions playing two songs from Robert Schumann's ''Scenes from Childhood'', ''Pleading Child'' and ''Perfectly Contented'', thereafter realizing that the two songs are actually two halves of the same song. The two songs, actually known as ''Bittendes Kind'' and ''Glückes genug'', are actually separate songs from the same book, ''Kinderszenen'', only that they are beside each other. At least the German names were translated into the English names properly. * BaldOfEvil: Lena's boyfriend Harold's baldness is a visual cue to his cold soullessness, along with the grey clothing and furniture. His replacement is notable for having thick, luxurious hair, symbolic of his warmth and goodness. * BatmanGambit: Lindo's plan of getting out of her first marriage.* BreakTheCutie[=/=]BreakTheHaughty: Varying cases through all of the characters.* BrokenBird: Young An-Mei, An-Mei's mother, Ying-ying. * CheerfulChild: 4-year-old Ying-Ying in "The Moon Lady." * ChildByRape: The film adaptation directly indicates An-Mei's half-brother is a product of this.* DarkAndTroubledPast: Most of the mothers.* DarkerAndEdgier: Arguably, the fate of Ying-Ying's first baby in the movie. In the book, Ying-Ying gets an abortion. In the movie, Ying-Ying carries it to term but later drowns it, acting listless the whole time. * DefiledForever: An-mei's widowed mother is raped by a strange man, and is then forced to marry him because she is considered defiled. * DestructiveRomance: Rose comes to realize that she's living in one.* DomesticAbuse: Lena's husband is of the financial abuse variety. Ted grows into an emotional abuser to Rose.* DullEyesOfUnhappiness: Poor Ying-ying.* DrivenToSuicide: Well... it's a long story in the case of An-Mei's mother.* TheEighties: The novel's set time.* ExtremeDoormat: Tan makes it pretty clear on just how terrible the consequences can be if a woman acts as such.* {{Flashback}}: All the mother and daughter stories up to the present.* HeroicSacrifice [[XMeetsY Meets]] MyDeathIsJustTheBeginning: An-mei's mother, trapped into a horrific marriage to her rapist, commits suicide by poison, but does so two days before the new year. Folklore states that the third day after death is when a spirit returns to settle old scores -- and you do ''not'' want a spirit angry with you on New Year's Day. An-mei's mother ensures her daughter and son will be cared for. * LikeBrotherAndSister: The extent of Lindo's relationship with her first husband.* LoveMartyr: Rose's believes that her submissive respects her husband Ted. Of course, she outgrows this mindset.* MeaningfulName: Loads. "Rose," in reference to her demureness in her marriage. And Lindo's intentionally invokes this with "Waverly."* MementoMacGuffin: The jade necklaces.* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: In the film, Ying's reaction after she kills her child.* OddNameOut: Matthew, Mark, Luke and Bing.* ParentalAbandonment:** ''Entirely'' unwillingly, on [[spoiler: Suyuan's]] part.** An-Mei's mother, due to her circumstances. She takes An-Mei so she could live a better life in a wealthier household, ironically committing this again by abandoning An-Mei's younger brother (it's implied that taking her son to a house where she served as a concubine would be frowned upon). * PetTheDog: The introduction of Second Wife seems to be this. She gives An-Mei a "genuine" pearl necklace as a welcoming offer. Then An-Mei's mother exposes the necklace as fake to An-Mei, hinting to Second Wife's conniving and manipulative nature..* PoorCommunicationKills: Mr. St. Clair could never understand his wife fully because of this, resulting in a marriage run mostly by tolerance than true love. Even Lena realizes that her father can merely "put words in her mother's mouth." Also a common case between the mothers and daughters.* PrecisionFStrike: In the film adaptation, Ted gives this to his own mother after she makes remarks towards Rose.* PrettyInMink: Waverly's fiance giving her a mink coat.* RapeAsBackstory: An-Mei's mother in "Magpies." * RapeAsDrama: Tyan-yu and Lindo in "The Red Candle." Huang Taitai enables and condones this because she wants an heir. However, nothing happens anyway. In the film, Tyan-yu thrusts something at Lindo and makes her scream -- but it's only his pet lizard! His mom is in SelectiveObliviousness.* RichBitch: Ying-ying in her youth, before she was broken by her terrible first marriage. The Second Wife in An-mei's story is this to a T.* TheRoaringTwenties: In the sequences with the mothers' childhoods. More evident in An-mei and Ying-ying's stories, given how they were raised in wealthy families with some Western influence.* RoundedCharacter: A specifically-praised aspect of the novel is that it was among the most prominent to portray Chinese-American women as such.* SexlessMarriage: Lindo's and Tyan-yu's marriage, being he has no interest in her.* StageMom: Suyuan and Lindo in regards to their daughters' piano playing and chess playing. Suyuan especially counts since the only reason Jing-Mei picked up the piano in the first place was because Suyuan was trying to force her into being a child star. * TrophyWife: Wu-Tsing engages in concubinage to attain a few of them.* [[WellDoneSonGuy "Well Done, Daughter" Girl]]: Waverly and Jing-Mei feel this about their mothers, who constantly compared each of their daughters to the other's.* UsefulNotes/WorldWarII: Most prominent in Suyuan's story.* YouAreACreditToYourRace: Implied by Mrs. Jordan when she speaks to Rose at an outdoor barbecue.* [[YouKnowWhatTheySayAboutX You Know What They Say About Asians]]: Again implied by Mrs Jordan to Rose.* YourCheatingHeart: Rose's husband and, even more severely, Ying's first husband.----

The department of the Hérault and, more generally, Languedoc-Roussillon have many tourist attractions, whether they be historical, cultural or purely natural. The following are some examples - starting from the closest.
in 1673 by a merchant from Clermont, the 'factory' was granted royal
patronage by Louis XIV and production was devoted to the manufacture of
fine woollen cloth often brightly coloured. Some of these were used for
army uniforms. Most of the original buildings as well as the gardens and
the pine woods were bought by the Department in 1989. The tranquil
atmosphere visitors find here is due to the careful restoration to the
buildings and the open spaces and also the respect of the site's history.
Guided tours are available. |
Mourèze kind of lunar landscapes awaits you. Giant columns of limestone (dolomites) left standing after the surrounding rocks have eroded. Some of these have even got names. Walks are indicated lasting from 45 minutes up to 3hrs 30 minutes |
Lake Salagou
the scenery is best after a good rainfall. The red earth contrasts against
the green vegetation and the blue (by then) sky and waters of the lake.
But even without the rain this is an impressive site. It is also a paradise for all kinds of activities, sailing, windsurfing, swimming (the water temperature can attain 28°C in summer) as well as cycling and walking. Something for all abilities |
Clermont l'Hérault The
town grew beneath the castle which dates back to the 12th century.
From the top of the hill 'Pioch Castel' there is a magnificent view over
the town and the Hérault valley. Down in the town you'll find
at Clermont there is the olive co-operative. Founded in 1920 the
'moulin' handles 80% of the department's olive production by some
3,800 producers. Take a look in the shop for a variety of products as well
as oil and olives themselves.
Every Wednesday throughout the year there is the street market – all types of colourful and, most importantly, local produce
Pézenas The architecture itself merits a visit. Large private houses (called 'hotels'), remains of the town ramparts, turrets etc. There are walking tours around the old town – pop into the Tourist Office in the town centre for a free plan. Today there are plenty of antique shops, art galleries and boutiques and the inevitable souvenir shops. Just take a stroll around and soak it all in. . |
abbey was founded in 1080. and the priory church was consecrated on
Saint Guilhem le Désert Recorded
history of this village starts during the 8th century. The few
villagers of that time grouped around the Gellone Abbey.
Guilhem, a lieutenant of Charlemagne, was the founder. Relics of
the cross of Christ and of Guilhem himself, he was by then canonised,
began to attract pilgrimages. The village still is an important stop on
the pilgrim route of Saint Jacques of Compostelle
Clamouse Grotto
be found in-between St Jean de Fos and St Guilhem le Désert The cave, discovered in 1945, opens under the southern hills of the Larzac plain. It is notable for the whiteness of its forms and the beauty of the crystallisations. The first part of the visit takes you along the bed of an old river and then onto the 'white corridor' full of white (as you might expect) formations which defy gravity and then to the 'cemetery' chamber. |
Béziers Olé – this is the sound of Béziers during the August fête. Bull fighting,,bodegas, casitas,, horse riding events, It's a colourful event to say the least, day s and nights blend into a fever pitch of music and dance |
Canal du Midi and the locks at Fonsérane
building of the canal took part during the 17th century. They
were planned and overseen by Paul Ricquet, a native of Béziers. He had
had to convince Colbert, the then finance minister, to help fund the
project. The canal is 150miles long and flows from the étang de Thau to
The banks are planted with plane trees for shade which makes it an ideal place for a stroll or cycle ride. Alternatively there are many barge tours available. |
African reserve at Sigean
between |
town full of history at the crossroads for this region. One of the oldest
universities in There are several museums and galleries to see, or you can just take a stroll round the shops. Something for everyone. |
A bit further there is Carcassonne and the Cathar region, Nîmes, Avignon, Spain (the Dali Museum at Figueres is only just over the border) and plenty more.

Victoria couple leaves $100,000 gift to hospitals
The Victoria Hospitals Foundation is thanking a generous couple for a $100,000 estate donation.
Anna Evelyn and John Thomas Goodrick left the donation to the Building Care Together campaign, which helps purchase state-of-the-art equipment for Royal Jubilee Hospital's new patient care centre.
"We know that this kind of donation speaks volumes about the person who made the gift since significant thought and planning was needed," campaign co-chair Ted Hughes said in a statement.
The couple's family friend, Jim Brownrigg, presented the donation at a press conference at Royal Jubilee Hospital on Thursday.
The donation brings the campaign total to $12,435,000.

A. Fill Out All Necessary Forms
If you choose, you may represent yourself before an Administrative Law Judge. You may also bring an attorney or non-attorney representative with you to your hearing to represent you at your own expense. The Department of State will not provide you with representation.
You do not need to inform the Department of State in advance if you plan to bring someone to your hearing to represent you. However, your representative must fill out and return the Notice of Appearance (pdf) form that you received with your "Notice of Hearing." Please submit your Notice of Appearance (pdf) form to the Office of Administrative Hearings.
In the past, parties have reached out to organizations that offer legal services free of charge. These resources are not affiliated with the Department of State. As a courtesy, the Department of State provides you with contact information to help you find representation. For more information, or if you did not receive this flier, please contact the Hearing Presenter representing the Division of Licensing Services in the case.
C. EvidenceIn preparing for your hearing, you should collect evidence that you believe will be helpful and relevant to your case. You should bring this evidence with you on the day of your hearing.
What Kind of Evidence Should I Bring?
Evidence includes, but is not limited to, testimony from you or one or more witnesses, court documents, certificates showing rehabilitation, education or training, letters of recommendation, receipts, pictures, and any other relevant documents that will help you prove your case.
In addition to bringing original documents for the ALJ to consider, you must bring copies of any documents to leave with the ALJ. Any evidence that you give to the ALJ will not be returned to you. It is your responsibility to make copies before the hearing begins.
Should I Bring Witnesses?
You may bring to your hearing any witnesses whose testimony will be helpful and relevant to your case, and who are willing and able to testify. Your witnesses will be subject to cross-examination by the Division of Licensing Services. You will also have the opportunity to cross-examine witnesses presented by the Division of Licensing Services.
What Is A Subpoena?
If you do not have an attorney, you may ask the judge for a subpoena with which you obtain documents or witnesses necessary to present your case before the Administrative Law Judge.
Reviewing the Evidence Against You
All parties appearing before an Administrative Law Judge have the right to review the evidence presented against them. Contact the Hearing Presenter representing the Division of Licensing Services in the case for more information about how to gain access to evidence that will be presented against you at your hearing. As a courtesy, the Department of State has drafted a sample letter you can use to request disclosure materials. Sample Disclosure Request Letter (pdf).
Make sure that you have the following things with you on the day of your hearing:
If you cannot appear at the scheduled date and time of your hearing, and need to postpone the date of hearing listed in your Notice of Hearing, you may request an adjournment.
Adjournments of adjudicatory hearings will only be granted for good cause. No party shall be granted more than two adjournments.
Requests for an adjournment must be made in writing and addressed to the Administrative Law Judge assigned to your hearing. You must send your statement to the Office of Administrative Hearings and the Hearing Presenter assigned to your case no later than three (3) business days prior to the scheduled date of hearing. The statement must contain sufficient details to explain the reason for the request. In addition, your letter must include your contact information, including phone number.
The Hearing Presenter representing the Division of Licensing Services in the case has the right to object to your request for an adjournment. If the Hearing Presenter makes a request for an adjournment, then you will have the right to object to his or her request as well.
The Administrative Law Judge presiding over your hearing will determine whether or not to grant you an adjournment based on your statement. You will be notified by phone or email whether your request has been granted.
If you have any other questions, please contact the Office of Administrative Hearings.
