Battle Lines:
Simone’s Notes:
Freud argued that the Madonna–whore complex was caused by a split between the
affectionate and the sexual currents in male desire. Oedipal and castration
fears prohibit the affection felt for past incestuous objects from being
attached to women who are sensually desired: "The whole sphere of love in such
persons remains divided in the two directions personified in art as sacred and
profane (or animal) love". In order to minimize anxiety, the man categorizes
women into two groups: women he can admire and women he finds sexually
attractive. Whereas the man loves women in the former category, he despises and
devalues the latter group. Psychoanalyst Richard Tuch suggests that Freud
offered at least one alternative explanation for the Madonna–whore complex: This
earlier theory is based not on oedipal-based castration anxiety but on man's
primary hatred of women, stimulated by the child's sense that he had been made
to experience intolerable frustration and/or narcissistic injury at the hands of
his mother. According to this theory, in adulthood the boy-turned-man seeks to
avenge these mistreatments through sadistic attacks on women who are stand-ins
for mother.
The battle lines
are being drawn
Two armies gear
up to fight.
Madonna:
Mother Superior
is the commander.
For years, she
kept back Ai-Oni.
This time, she
was too late.
Ai-Oni got the
upper hand.
Mother Superior
couldn’t let Manami get the other hand.
“Too much lust
will plunge us into chaos.”
Her deities are
ready to fight back.
For too long,
they have sat back too long.
They are
counting down,
Counting down to
the blood moon.
Whore:
Manami sits upon
her throne.
She knows her
purpose now.
Her mother
showed her the light.
She will become
a whoredonna.
Her slaves are
happy to serve.
However, the
games are over.
It’s time to
begin the hardcore things.
The slaves are
in line for it.
Their kingdom
must stand for the End of Days.
The slaves need
more pets.
The slaves want
more action.
They are
counting down,
Counting down to
the blood moon.
The battle lines

Two armies gear
up to fight.
Let’s see what happens next…
