भिन्न वर्ण के पुरुष द्वारा भिन्न वर्ण की स्त्री से उत्पन्न सन्तान यानी ब्राह्मण यदि शूद्रा को गर्भवती बनाता है, तो उस शूद्रा स्त्री से उत्पन्न सन्तान वर्णसंकर कहलायेगी, क्योंकि उसकी जाति में दो भिन्न वर्णों के खून का मिश्रण है।)
इसीलिए मैं कहता हूं ‘वर्ण’ का सटीक अंग्रेज़ी अनुवाद ‘species’ हैं, ‘caste’ अथवा ‘class’ नहीं। ब्राह्मण धर्म का मानना हैं कि सृष्टि के आरम्भ में, यज्ञ के निमित्त, प्रजापति ब्रह्मा ने चार पृथक और ‘पदसोपान’ होमो प्रजातियां बनाई, जिनको वर्ण कहा गया। फिर इन्हीं चार वर्णों के मिश्रण से हज़ारों ‘वर्णसंकर’ जातियों की उत्पति हुई, जो पदसोपान में चार ‘वर्णशुद्ध’ जातियों के मध्य अथवा नीचे स्थान रखती हैं। क्योंकि ‘संकरण’ केवल दो भिन्न-भिन्न species के मध्य ही हो सकता हैं, एक ही species के सदस्यों के मध्य नहीं।

“And that's the point! Not even girls want to be girls so long as our feminine archetype lacks force strength power. Not wanting to be girls, they don't want to be tender, submissive, peace-loving as good women are. Women's strong qualities have become despised because of their week ones.”

“Modernism does not mean simply change and newness; it is a particular way of looking at the world, a particular philosophy based on the rejec- tion of the theocentric view of reality—that is, removing God from the center of reality and putting man in His place. In a sense, it is a substitu- tion of the kingdom of man for the Kingdom of God, therefore paying special attention to the individual and individualism and to the different powers of the individual human being such as reason and the senses. Therefore, its method of cognition, its epistemology, is based essentially upon either rationalism or empiricism, and it makes human values, the values of terrestrial man, the supreme set of values and the criteria for all things.”

“I don't think you can get really out of anorexia (or any addiction, for that matter) until you simply have no other choice, until the sense that your back's against the wall grows too strong and too irrefutable, until you are simply in too much pain - too desperate and deeply bored and unhappy - to go on.”
