If you're reading this on the bus, or surreptitiously in the cinema, or in any other public scenario, then please note other people's responses. (If you are male, and teenaged, and reading this in a room with other teenage boys, then for your own safety I advise you not to participate.) The rest of you – what comes to mind when you say those words? Is it a fine lady scientist, a ballsy young anarchist with tights on her head or a feminist intellectual from the 1970s nose-down in Simone de Beauvoir? Or is it what I think my friend meant when she said 'woman' which is really 'aesthetic object'. Clothes-horse. Show pony. General beautiful piece of well-groomed stuff that's lovely to look at? I reckon, to my great dismay, that she did indeed mean the latter. And in saying that I don't take myself seriously in this regard her assessment of me is absolutely bang-on. If taking oneself seriously as a woman means committing to a like of grooming, pumicing, pruning and polishing one's exterior for the benefit of onlookers, then I may as well heave my unwieldy rucksack to the top of a bleak Scottish hill and make my home there under a stone, where I'll fashion shoes out of mud and clothes out of leaves.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Miranda Hart" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/miranda-hart/time-for-an-exercise-which-i-shall-call-say-it-out-loud-with-miranda/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/cc2/miranda-hart-3735_fine-lady_time-for-an-exercise-which-i-shall-call_259894.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/cc2/miranda-hart-3735_fine-lady_time-for-an-exercise-which-i-shall-call_259894.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/cc2/miranda-hart-3735_fine-lady_time-for-an-exercise-which-i-shall-call_259894.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“Time for an exercise, which I shall call 'Say It Out Loud With Miranda'.
