The plantation owner Abis's whip hit Passy's body with blood and blood. It is hard to imagine that this is a man's way of treating the so-called woman who cares the most. The method is pungent and vicious.
Paisy was Abis' slave girl and his private property. The important reason Paisy got his heart was nothing more than the ability to keep more than 500 pounds of cotton picking every day. Based on the high labor value Paisy created, he also became his most "loved" slave girl. Therefore, this "love" has both identity and physical possession. He can dispose of Pasie's body as he wants, including sex. Violation and whipping.
Abis was a pathological possession of Passy. This deformed feeling is not love at all. In addition to reflecting the exploitation and oppression of black slaves by white plantation owners in the United States at the time, it also alluded to the survival status of women in the United States and the world at that time— -Being objectified as a sexual tool, or just a vagina or uterus that satisfies male physiological and reproductive desires.
The status of women has indeed improved with the development of society, but it has not increased to the point where a woman’s fertility can be measured without regard to her fertility. The most common one is the age anxiety imposed on women by the patriarchal society and culture. "I can't marry anymore", "I'll be an advanced mother after 30 years of age", "I can't marry a hen who can't lay eggs" and so on. We are used to saying that women are only judged from the value of fertility. At least for the moment, we have not got rid of this social culture that is instrumental to women at all.
Finally, I suddenly returned to the topic of love and ended this article.
Abis may have feelings for Pasie, but because of the dual effects of his historical environment and his own character, he thinks it is shameful to have a relationship with Pasie who is a slave. When he finally reached the climax to ejaculate, he slapped Passy.
To borrow the words Jane said to Mr. Rochester: "If I and you stand before God now, our souls are equal." True love only occurs between two absolutely equal souls, and it comes from the heart. Treat each other as individuals.
Finally, I wish everyone a lover with equal souls and mutual compassion.
