Quotes of the day, by John Berger, from Ways of Seeing:

"A man's presence suggests what he is capable of doing to you or for you.  In contrast, a woman's presence...defines what can and cannot be done to her."

"To be born a woman has to be born, within an allotted and confined space, into the keeping of men.  The social presence of women is developed as a result of their ingenuity in living under such tutelage within such a limited space.  But this has been at the cost of a woman's self being split into two.  A A woman must continually watch herself.  She is almost continually accompanied by her own image of herself.  Whilst she is walking across a room or whilst she is weeping at the death of her father, she can scarcely avoid envisaging [imagining the sight of] herself walking or weeping. From earliest childhood she has been taught and persuaded to survey herself continually.  And so she comes to consider the surveyor and the surveyed within her as the two constituent yet always distinct elements of her identity as a woman.  She has to survey everything she is and everything she does because how she appears to men is of crucial important, for what is normally thought of as the success of her life.  Her own sense of being in herself is supplanted [replaced by] a sense of being appreciated as herself by another...One might simplify this by saying: men act and women appear.  Men look at women.  Women watch themselves being looked at.  This determines not only most relations between men and women but also the relation of women to themselves.  The surveyor of woman in herself is male: the surveyed female.  Thus she turns herself into an object -- and most particularly an object of vision: a sight."
