Joan of (Character)Arc.  

One can find oneself (both 'self-s', twoness/double consciousness selves) some kinda dizzy - going back n' forth betwixt Joan or Peggy.  Who, oh, who is the mo' salient rep of XX chromo, would-were-WASP, middle-class angst in the masterfully-crafted, mid-century workplace of that mad, mad, mad, badass world of AMC's dramatic broadcast, Mad Men?  Perhaps, much like our own 'two' or 'double' derriere, Joan and Peg are one-in-da-same.  

In the May, 2010 issue of Esquire magazine, Joan's skilled portrayer, Christina Hendricks, was chronicled by their editors as the sexiest POST-XX Chromo-Magnon of U.S. citizenship.  With a figure less than Mammy zaftig yet exceeding current - not past - American norms of diminutive measurements, the above pictorial featured Ms.Hendricks in post-pickaninny afterglow.   Such seductive properties were neva afforded to the common demo of H2Omeloncholy™.  Nah, its 'base' was neutered, daresay, genitally mutilated.  Albeit a darker bosom may fill the identical cup size, that rack was corset-ed sentenced to and strapped beneath the Mammified apron.  Contrarily, here, Ms. Hendricks channels the XY chromo fantasy of Joan's 'office'.  Out from the pin-up sweater, with red hair wind-swept, Ms. Hendricks sets Joan free - free to gallivant in Esquire's Eden.  Our beleaguered melon!  Has it come to fruition as that other, most infamous of fruits - Eve's apple?

Curious comparison here.  Gisele Bundchen may be best known - too - for her figure.  Yet, her presentation is the opposite of Hendricks with a svelte frame synonymous with the Victoria Secret runway.  Seems the only time XX chromodom is granted the adjective 'super' in our title is if we are international fashion models or über-ambitious moms.  Ms. Bundchen is reportedly the world's highest paid model thus her 'super' is applicable.  However, 'tis her supper or snack that is of interest to this post.  

June/July, 2012 Vogue Paris features our fav fruit of longest days and sultry nights.  Much like Ms. Hendricks, Ms. Bundchen holds a rather serious gaze, counter to the traditional pickaninny glee associated with watermelon consumption.  They know best.  And by "they", one concedes to the wisdom of photographers.  When Sexy smiles, some veneer is apparently cracked - maybe even the lens itself.  Humor demands a quick wit whilst sensuality must s..s...smolder.  A smile - genuine or coon - could break the spell.  Seeing teeth would imply the existence of a jawbone.  It must chew.  And therefore work.  The camera loves the mouth loose, lazy and melon-ready.  Labor is misaligned with the erotic aesthetic.   

Whom amongst us is bold enough?  Who can hold it up: sweet, red flesh - and her dignity - simultaneously?  What will be her name - the brave, break-thru sister defying H2Omeloncholy's porous parameters?  Who will crack the watermelerotica™ rind ceiling; drop that melon like it's hot?  Send that gourd to splattering.  Jet magazine's "Beauty of the Week", perchance?  Or Essence?  Might one anticipate that revelatory article on expert hair maintenance for sisters who bungee jump?  And turning the very next page reveals...H2Omeloncholy™, at last, broken wide open.  Boom shacka lacka...smash.

a clever as compassionate critique

on the implausibility of

POSTness 

Til our next 'post', feast upon produce in season...
