from Marriage Resistance in Rural Kwangtung; Topley, Majorie

Occasionally, my own informants explained, a woman is born with a “blind” or “non-marrying” fate: her predestined partner is not alive at the same time, not of suitable marriage age, or not of the appropriate sex. In these circumstances, a woman should remain unwed.

Several sources refer to lesbian practices in connection with sisterhoods in Shun-te and P’an-yü. My own informants agreed that they sometimes occurred. One woman gave me a religious explanation. As we saw, a woman may be predestined to marry a certain man over and over again in different incarnations; even if her predestined husband should in one incarnation be born a female, she is nonetheless attracted to her predestined partner. Informants called lesbian practices “grinding bean curd”

“So let me get this straight. We’re here to rescue a princess.”

“That’s right.”

“At the request of a princess.”

“Right again.”

“And you, who will be leading the expedition, are also a princess.”

“You’re very perceptive.”

“How big is your royal family, again?“

“We don’t have one.”

“But–“

“We overthrew our monarchy centuries ago, but we kept most of the titles around. The rank of ‘princess’ is held by the directors in charge of various civil service branches.“

“Huh. And the princess we’re rescuing today is in charge of…?”

“Public sanitation.”

“The Lord of Death’s Dominion kidnapped your public sanitation director?”

“We think he’s a little confused.”
