Can BME (Big Mare Energy) be a Reparative force to help us become more comfortably present in female bodies (cyborg, goddess, human, nonhuman) that exist in space across time, recognizing that some limitations open new avenues for growth that moves beyond a hermeneutics of suspicion even if you are nervous and touchy? This personal narrative about a middle-aged Victorianist and a middle-aged Lipizzaner mare pays tribute to Donna Haraway, Vicki Hearne, Eve Sedgwick et. al as it tries to disentangle the blurred lines between gender and species, sex, biology, and society in seeking a feminism for plain ordinary creatures occupied with mud and manure during a time of profound global upheaval.
