A Great Post on the Hollywood Myth of Female Sexuality

I'm grateful for Mary Kassian's short summary of the Black Swan's dangerous message. I grieve at how distorted and misogynistic our culture's conception of female sexuality is. It's unattainable and absolutely soul-destroying. The Bible doesn't offer the picture of a dormant church mouse as what femininity is. Instead, consider the beautiful strength of a woman whose character is fierce and whose life is full. Someone who is not phased by the ever-changing perceptions and opinions of the people around her, but lives to please her Father passionately, intentionally, and with life-giving focus.

Black Swan deserves an Oscar?
