Let us give masculinity back its flowering wand of reciprocal relationship with the natural world. Let us call Dionysus to the gates of our cities and homes. A man who can dance with plants and honor beasts, a man who can be a woman and an androgen and an animal, is more than a gender. He is a celebration. A hive of humming bees. A secret network of fungus ready to erupt as the air moistens. A murmuration of birds. A cluster of grapes. A throng of singing women. A magician.

I have written from a body that is bent over, that has become stiff under the effects of Parkinson’s, that trembles, that goes forward and falls, and I have found my infirmity to be beautiful, I have felt that my tremors are lovely, that the challenge of holding up these pieces of paper that I now read is lovely. I have written about that body, about the pains that I myself have caused others and that I have inflicted on myself, I have recorded my poems on its skin. I have come to believe that only the sick, the weak, the wounded are capable of giving beauty to those ruins, that debris. Such beauty is intolerable and at the same time is the light of the world. When all of humanity bows down weeping before La Pietá, the world will have come to its end. Meanwhile, all we have are our ruins, our tiny misfortunes, our great loves, our horror, our deaths. --Raúl Zurita

It's important to teach kids that girls are not ornamental objects. That women deserve to live in their bodies, not merely decorate them.

Only by welcoming uncertainty from the get-go can we acclimate ourselves to the shattering wonder that enfolds us. This animal body, for all its susceptibility and vertigo, remains the primary instrument of all our knowing, as the capricious earth remains our primary cosmos.

Pain is the body's warning system: nature's request the we stop what we are doing. But from an early age, dancers are inducted into a perverse relationship with pain. It isn't a sign that the body is under stress; it's a source pride, a sign of progress - something to be ignored, if not outright relished. As students, we found ways to make it all more painful, just to show we could. [...] We learned to find our limits and then push past them; to ignore the thousands of nerves in our feet and legs and backs that screamed for us to stop. We were proud, too, when our teachers corrected us, even when the corrections took the form of insults or painful physical adjustments - yanking our leg above our ear or shoving our rib cage into our chest. We measured our status by the number of corrections received: the more the better - no matter how harshly they were delivered. [...] Withstanding emotional pain, even humiliation, was another badge of honor.

The closer you are to being able to listen to your intuition, your emotions, and your body, the less likely you are to fall under the spell of an authoritarian who promises to keep you safe, be it from your own sinful soul or the apocalypse or whatever marginalized group your culture has decided must fulfill the role of scapegoat.

There were many theories in Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages about the connection between the mind and body. Most Christians agreed that the body was a needy creature whose bottomless appetite for food, sex, and comfort held back the mind from what mattered most. That didn't mean that the body must be rejected, only that it needed tough love. For all monks and nuns, since the very start of monasticism in the 4th century, this meant a moderate diet and no sex. Many of them also added regular manual labor to the regimen. They found it easier to concentrate when their bodies were moving, whether they were baking or farming or weaving.
