The fear of castration and the “sponge”: a portion of GNTM nonsense for you

Today, dear ones, it’s about feelings. Also called tears. I’ve given myself a few episodes of the current season of GNTM, so all episodes up to and including the lone highlight of the season, the “makeover.” Young women who otherwise take part in whatever humiliation Heidi Klum orders them to break down because their hair is being cut. After all, hair does NOT grow back. That’s why we only have to go to the hairdresser ONCE in our lives.

All nonsense aside, I have come to the conclusion that the hair problem is something to be taken seriously. Because? Sigmund Freud! As far back as 1900, the godfather of psychoanalysis wrote in The Interpretation of Dreams that “cutting your hair” was tantamount to castration. Just like “baldness, loss of teeth and heads”. So all practices performed on the head. Which in Freud clearly stands for a penis. In a dream, of course. In life, a penis really has nothing to do with a head.

But, as we all know, dreamed fears have the property of pursuing us extremely brutally in reality, after all, we practically vomited them out of our subconscious in a dream. And that’s why you have to take the affected GNTM genes Selma, Anya and Sarah seriously. Because? You are panicked about losing the hairy penis! For them, ‘penis’ stands for self-confidence and identity.

Sure, Heidi swears she wants to rob her “girls” — calling them less “Meeedchen” now less “Meeedchen,” “girls” is next-level feminism — in the big makeover, but she wants to help it flourish. Naturally. Identity and personality are all Heidi is looking for. And what does she think? submission and obedience. How stupid! But Heidi fails. For example to Sarah.

Sarah can burst into sobs at any opportunity that almost suffocates her. Sarah is very, very beautiful. Definitely a favourite. But it took Sarah sooooooo long to get comfortable with herself, and her hair is such an essential part of this sense of well-being that she gives up on Heidi’s dark plan, because then she won’t have a long braid, but only ” a cock”. braid”. can braid. She leaves with the words: “I don’t want to pretend, I want to stay as I am.”

Anya has “sensitive ears” but no girlfriend, so she always has to praise and hug herself. Anya is offended that not she, but Selma gets the most egregious makeover. And she is disappointed. She wanted a different haircut so bad, but now the worst that can happen is that she – yikes, it’s the 18th century – gets a haircut “like a man”! Very short hair! endless tears! Eventually, Anya comes to terms with it.

Heidi is good at recognizing insecurities. And what colors would Selma not like to die for? Purple, pink, pink! What color do you think she will be? na? Geeeeeeel! tears! Eventually, Selma comes to terms with it.

Unfortunately, the statuesque Tracy, the other favorite besides Sarah, also leaves GNTM prematurely. The doctor’s assistant, who is often compared to Naomi Campbell, likes to relax. She meditates and has several “quiet periods” each day when she doesn’t communicate. Everything is too stressful for her now. And too scheming. Can you understand.

Or else? Oh, it’s a raucous, under-talented stumble without Tracy and Sarah, and the production intentions are clear, Anya is the crazy victim of the bully, and Austrian hairdresser Elsa is the chicken who knows nothing about poultry.

And one Cassy had the designer of the flawed textile, a Swiss, cover up her butt-free looks by saying nudity isn’t the point: “It’s about asking questions.” That’s what it’s all about.

Incidentally, Elsa caused the first “scandal” of this season – in case it went unheard in the echo chambers of the present. Wearing real fur, she countered the others’ criticisms: “The fur can grow back!” Where to begin with so much ignorance? Where???

And will Elsa ever understand the civil joke the GNTM crew made when they put the swan on their heads? All I say is: Richard Wagner! Lohengrin! An opera in which a knight on a swan boat comes to the aid of the Duchess Elsa. In return, she may not ask him his name, but must say to herself: “What’s his name? Frans? No It doesn’t matter. René», or something like that. Of course she asks him, after all it’s about ask questions, and the swan and the knight disappear.

By the way, hair is not only a woman’s problem: in the Old Testament there was the short-tempered and long-haired Samson, who was so strong that he tore a lion in two. The source of his strength was in his hair. When it was shaved with the help of a beautiful woman, he became a weakling. I say yes, you have to take it seriously.
