Penis Envy

This morning I noticed on my Google Buzz that Nick Bright posted a wikipedia article listing incidents of penis removal

I checked out the list and I noticed that most of them happened in China.

Which got me thinking that it couldn't be just a coincidence. There must be, what Freud calls, "penis envy" engrained in the Chinese psyche moreso than in other cultures. Which led me to explore the 1 child law as installed by the Chinese government in 1979. As a means of population control, because China was becoming overpopulated, the government imposed the law that only one child could be born into each family and subsequent children would engender the family to severe fines. This led to Chinese society becoming extremely male oriented, moreso than in the past (Chinese always valued boys more in history- note that all emperors were males, there wasn't ever a queen Elizabeth-type in China, emperors were always allowed many wives, thus women were always valued less) because male heirs would ensure the continuation of the family lineage and acquire the assets, as well as continue any family ventures. Thus, it was common knowledge in China that little girls born after this time would be left on the street to die, often there were wheel barrows of corpses of deserted little girls, and even today, most orphanages only have little girls and rarely any little boys are unwanted.

So this entitlement that boys are born with is more pronounced in Chinese culture than anywhere else.

Thus, we can note that the women who cut off the penises of their lovers were mostly provoked by their unfaithfulness. Perhaps this triggered a deep seated penis envy, one that is more deeply embedded in the fabric of Chinese society- so they were born a male, and therefore they're allowed to do so much that women can't? What entitles them, just an extra bit of flesh? It triggers more of an aggressive attack, more of a displacement because there's much more anger, hurt, hatred, and repression involved in the Penis Envy of the Chinese.

Penis Envy by Freud's definition is the complex that develops in girls when they're young, and they see a naked little boy, and they realize that the boy has something that they do not possess themselves. This then creates an opposition, a have, and a have not, which automatically instills a sense of "lack" in the girl. She then unconsciously denotes that she is lesser than a male, or in relative terms, the - to the +. Very Simone de Beauvoir, who says that the idea of femininity is only definable relative to its masculine counterpart.

here's our google buzz thread:

Maria Liu - In 2010 Maria Liu attempted to cut off Bright's penis with a venus razor after a domestic dispute over the division of assets which would occur after the annulment of their shot gun wedding in Vegas. Liu wanted shared custody of C.F. Dean but Bright insisted upon granting full custody to Liu, who then burst into a hysterical rage while shaving her legs and begun lashing at Bright's nether regions. Bright fainted and later gained consciousness at the hospital, having had been dragged to the hospital by Cloudy. His severed penis was rescued from the garbage by Magnus and was re-attached, albeit not entirely successfully (50% function). Liu was never heard from again, and to this day, remains on the FBI's top 10 most wanted list. It is assumed she ran away to Europe.Edit3:10 pm
