Una mujer se queda desnuda para que los demas la miren. La midan. Su cuerpo es el texto en el que se ha escrito su biografia. La mano derecha es mas grande que la izquierda porque es la mano con la que la mujer agarra, escribe, acaricia... Siendo chica, va al colegio y se forja un pequeno corazon competitivo. Nada como si fuera un besugo. Ama desesperadamente a su madre y la salva de morir en un ridiculo incendio. Se hace amiga de muchas ninas y mujeres, y del nino mas gamberro. Para seducir se aprieta las carnes ridiculamente como si su cuerpo fuera el de otra persona. Bebe, fuma, se pone mala y tiene miedo de sus alumnos. Se casa. Trabaja de ocho a ocho. Miente y dice la verdad. Como casi todo el mundo. Cumple cuarenta anos. Se queda quieta. Reclama el derecho a dejar de complacer. El derecho a la lentitud. / A woman strips naked, so that others can observe her. They measure her. Her body is the text on which her biography is transcribed. Her right hand is bigger than her left, because it is the hand that grabs, writes, caresses. Before, her grandmother smacks her behind. She goes to school and develops a competitive heart. She swims like a fish. She desperately loves her mother and saves her from anunexpected fire. She becomes friends with lots of women and girls and of the cheekiest boy. To seduce others, she uses her body as if it belonged to someone else. She drinks, smokes, gets ill and learns to fear her students. She marries. She works form 8am until 8pm. She lies and tells the truth. Just like almost everyone. She stays quiet. She demands the right to stop pleasing. The right to slowness.
