7/12/16

Why do they blame women instead the rich(another rich and attractive men)? -- just being a coward in front of the strong men? This individualistic and animalistic approach cannot explain anything about social enforcement on being an individual man.

Deficit of erotic capital
risky behavior when having a chance? or rather safe since there’s rare chance?
- emotional health. depression?
How have they developed the ideas or a certain level of desirability over the life course?
A.I.Green, “distributing erotic capital?
-- Redistributing is possible? : Undesirability, Sexual dissatisfactions, and failed citizen
 Research Question required. 
-- social value of dating and mating?! --- economic sociology

desirability includes not only self-managing to be more desirable but also relinquishing the need to be desirable. When the knowledge of desirability increases and becomes naturalized, those who try not to conform are regarded as abnormal. Particularly, when marriage and child rearing is culturally and nationally valued, the abnormalization prevails. Existing literatures participate in this abnormalization, seeing it as a social problem. 

cultural and social capital redistribution = possible
erotic capital = how to redistribute without naturalizing gender difference and heterosexuality? 
= in fact, the discrepancy of erotic capital among people is compensated and adjusted by the use of other type of capital: sex industry
The bundle of different capitals... How can we differentiate that?
