cool!!
'beauty is not a woman, but a man's idea of a woman' - isn't that interesting?
*makes note: do some 'research' on the theory of the 'nordic horse putting a foot in your face'*

Now...
By 'your' you didn't mean me did you ?...
As in 'Nordic foot in your face'...
(Please clarify)
Not as if I'm not totally fine with it...

Oh, no, I didn't even think about saying/meaning whatever about you or anyone in particular.
The 'you' is contained in the sentence quoted from Quentin Crisp, I obviously didnt use proper quoting marks - sorry!
I find QC's 'theory' about the essence of stardom and glamour in Mayer's Hollywood quite interesting - not so new, but excellently told: beauties, at that time,had to be great,blond and like horse putting... Nothing to do with blondes as such... -

I've taken the time to write down what Quentoin Crisp says in the video:
"During the reign of Mr Mayer it was a Jewish idea of an Arian woman you marry some nice Jewish girl that means that you turn out to marry your mother but you long for a greeeeat, blond and Nordic horse thats going to put a foot in your face..."
I find that 'longing for'-theory interesting:
foot of Nordic horse was meant in the face of men (longing for it) in the Hollywood time of Mr Mayer -

Justgrrl...
That was the most interesting thing...
That Quentin Crisp should be discoursing on the feminine ideal...
Of course feminine beauty is defined by men when they have billions of man-stuff to our one egg...
But that's also the biological imperetive which allows women to be picky...

Doesn't the Nordic horse relate to a dominant blonde (Arian woman)? A touch of the Dominatrix?
That's what I understood him to mean.
Hey ho - another career move beckons - where's the peroxide bottle!

Sorry - I'm a trifle deaf - could you shout up a bit
Did you see my spider??? Nearly as big as that mechanical one rampaging round your neck of the woods!-

SHE WAS HOOOOGE...
I said...
Although 'rampaging' might be a bit of an overstatement...
In fact 'plodding' might be a bit of an overstatement...
In fact 'moving' might be a bit of an overstatement... -
