Mind, Body, Soul
A Lesson From
the Orient?
By Mona Lease
Greetings, Gals!! The following us pretty intense. It is, however, the
truth. Read on if you like.
The furnishings are opulent...plush carpeting...fine cigars...well-aged
brandy...the finest foods. Trim, fit, beautiful girls, scantily dressed
with heels and hose of black, circulate the room ready to serve your
every need. Soft, relaxing music plays in the background.
Everything is orchestrated to please ad relax a man...from his
emotional senses to his physical desires. It's the Playboy Club...or
maybe mansion.
For whatever reason...a young girl is in this club that is geared to
men...hence the Play boy in the name. Somehow...she sees Bill Cosby and
at some point...she actually talks to him.
Through the conversation...amid the above description of opulence...she
agrees to go to a private room with Mr. Cosby...to discuss how he can
help her become a star on Broadway. There were no reports of her being
dragged from the room kicking and screaming by Bill Cosby.
She accepts an open drink from Mr. Cosby...becomes woozy...and some 35+
years later...she takes Mr. Cosby to court for sexual assault.
RULE #1: In these situations...never accept an open drink from anyone
you do not know personally. I actually believe Mr. Cosby is
guilty. He admitted to possessing the prescription drugs used to sedate
these women when he was on trial in California. He stated he got them
from his physician.
A woman in Pennsylvania took Bill Cosby to court and won. I watched as
Mr. Cosby was led out of the court room...in handcuffs...after his
sentencing. The Pennsylvania woman said she has had trouble trusting
people since the assault...in a motel room with Mr. Cosby...where the
biggest piece of furniture is the bed. My question is: Does this woman
really have trouble trusting people or...does she know that she made a
dumb decision and now she really does not trust her own judgement??
Mr. Cosby..would you let me have your autograph? Hey, Bill...my
daughter is so funny. Would you help us get her discovered? Mr.
Cosby...can I have my picture taken with you? Mr. Cosby...would you
sign my chest? Hey, Bill...would you help a black brother get a break
into the "big time?" You know Mr. Cosby has heard it all.
Mr. Cosby is a talented man who rose quickly to the top through hard
work and dedication...and stayed at the top for some 45+ years.
Make no mistake here about this....he was the first black man to
undertake such a role on "I Spy." He was black...and he would
have been given no breaks. How many wedding anniversaries do you
suppose he missed? How many first words or first steps or graduations
or birthdays of his children did he miss because he was taping "Fat
Albert" or "The Cosby Show" or "Kids Say the Darndest Things" None of
this excuses Bill Cosby's behavior. It does, however, give you an idea
of his (and any other musician's/actors, etc) mind/emotional set. I do
bet the "ranch" that not a one of these women, who accused Mr. Cosby of
sexual assault, thought about any of this. They were only interested in
what he could do for them....hence all the "tips" in the private rooms.
Which brings me to the actual point of this column...it being
woman's column and all.
No offense against Mr. Cosby but...why would a woman put herself in
such a dangerous position? Any one of these women could have had an
underlying medical condition of which they were not aware...and the
drug that was administered could have killed them. I lost a classmate
in 1971 due to this very thing. She was 13.
Another question I have here is: Do you think that Bill Cosby had
any real respect for any of these women who so willingly went with him
for his "sage wisdom?" Be honest here.
In Japan...if a boss gives his secretary a pat on the butt...it's a
compliment. Women take great pride in keeping themselves fit and good
looking. They strive to keep their actions and their vocal tone
pleasing and non-disruptive to the home or in public.
The Orient's society deals with any "sexual" problem at the lowest
local level.
So gals, if a guy whistles at you...it's not always a bad thing. Maybe
you're the best looking gal he's seen in a while. It's all in how we
respond. If a guy gives you a swat on the butt...don't get too upset.
Maybe he likes what he sees. It's all in how we respond. Feeling good,
gals, because a guy responded to your efforts to keep healthy and
trim...is a good thing. Smile and say thanks. There's no need for a
drawn out discussion.
My final question is: What do you suppose China, Russia, and the rest
of the world...think of the USA...now that we have women sexually
assaulted from coast to coast...by movie stars and politicians? This
stuff makes headlines around the world.

can't solve your problems. Just knowing there is someone who cares can
make all the difference." - sun.gazing.com
The best is yet to be!! MONA
