Ona suggests that everyone might be a little crazy, implying that this could be a common aspect of human nature. Her remark reflects a realization or acceptance of the imperfections and complexities within all people.

Mejal responds by agreeing with Ona and emphasizes that craziness is inevitable for everyone. This exchange highlights a shared understanding that no one is perfect, and embracing this can be a part of human connection and understanding.

Ona protests, quietly, that she doesn't believe that at all. She doesn't believe in authority, period, because authority makes people cruel. Salome interrupts: The people with authority or the people...

Perhaps all of us are crazy, Ona says. Of course we're all crazy, says Mejal. How can we not be?

Oh, she breathed. How silly I've been. How silly we've all been, said another of the wives. We shouldn't be fighting each other. Our problems don't lie in any of the relationships we have with each...

Oh, she breathed. How silly I've been. How silly we've all been, said another of the wives. We shouldn't be fighting each other. Our problems don't lie in any of the relationships we have with each other. The problem is our entire social system, chimed in another.

I will keep writing about these intersections as a writer and a teacher, as a black woman, as a bad feminist, until I no longer feel like what I want is impossible. I no longer want to believe that these problems are too complex for us to make sense of them.

I have always been attracted to male writers who can demonstrate their love and affection for women with ease, yet not draw attention to themselves.

The Darwinian approach to sex is often attacked as being antifeminist, but that is just wrong. Indeed, the accusation is baffling on the face of it, especially to the many feminist women who have developed and tested the theory. The core of feminism is surely the goal of ending sexual discrimination and exploitation, an ethical and political position that is in no danger of being refuted by any foreseeable scientific theory or discovery.
