The Uniform

Uniforms are perfect for the kind of role-playing that is characteristic of fetish sex.  As one says in the army, one "salutes the uniform and not the man!"  Uniforms often symbolize authority evoking fantasies of Dominance and submission and military uniforms particularly signify that the wearer is endowed with state-sanctioned power and are strong assertions of masculine power. 

When a woman dresses in the military garb does she masquerade as a Phallic Woman?  Does she want the power that a patriarchal society has attributed to the phallus and is symbolized by phallic clothing?  Versace described the modern woman as "ruling men with an iron hand." 

Military uniforms are the most popular as they signfy hierarchy and command.  Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice arrived at the Wiesbaden Army Airfield on February 23, 2005 dressed for power wearing all black.  Rice was wearing a black skirt that hit just above the knee, and it was topped with a black coat that fell to mid-calf. The coat, was emblazoned with seven gold buttons running down the front and its band collar, called to mind a Marine's dress uniform.   

As Rice walked out to greet the troops, the coat blew open in a rather swashbuckling way to reveal the top of a pair of knee-high boots. The boots had a high, slender heel that elongated the leg and gave her a look of sexual excitement.  Her boots also had that phallic signifier which likely appealed to "soldier lovers." 

Rice's uniform of a coat and boots exuded power, strength and sexuality.  A most volatile combination, and when looking at the image of Rice in Wiesbaden, the mind searches for ways to put it all into context.  It turns to fiction, to caricature.  To shadowy daydreams.  Dominatrix!  It is as though sex and power can only co-exist in a fantasy.  When a woman combines them in the real world, stubborn stereotypes begin to have Female Power devolving into a form that becomes rampant and purely sexual.

Rice commanding attire challenges expectations and assumptions.  There is undeniable authority in her long black jacket with its severe details and menacing silhouette.  The darkness lends an air of mystery and foreboding. Black is the color of intellectualism, of abstinence, of penitence.  If there is any symbolism to be gleaned from Rice's stark garmente is tough and focused enough for whatever task is at hand., it is that sh Think Matrix and do not rub her the wrong way, or else! 

But the sexual frisson in Rice's look also comes from the tension of a woman dressed in vaguely masculine attire -- that is, the long, military-inspired jacket.  When the designer Yves Saint Laurent first encouraged Women to wear trousers more than 30 years ago, his reasons were not simply because pants are comfortable or practical.  He knew that the sight of a woman draped in the accouterments of a man is sexually provocative.  A woman was embracing something forbidden.

Rice's appearance at Wiesbaden -- a military base with all of its attendant images of machismo, strength and power -- was striking because she walked out draped in a banner of authority, power and toughness.  She was not wearing a bland suit with a loose baggy skirt with a boxy male jacket and sensible pumps and did not cloak her power in Feminine hues.  Also she certainly was not hiding behind matronliness, androgyny or the stereotype of the steel magnolia.  Rice looked as though she was prepared to talk tough.   

Was she laughing at the men who were lost in her strong and sexy look and their submissive male fantasies and were helplessly turned on?  Ms. Rice certainly walks to the beat of a different drummer. She show support of the current white male supremist patriarchal culture. She definitely does not share the agenda of the Democratic Party. This suggests that She is a free thinker. Rice also doesn't go along with the vast majority of Black voters (about 90% of whom vote for Democrats). She holds a very Conservative view which creates a vast thought chasm among those who have a more liberal view in the black community. However, such diversity is healthy and is the goal of the Female-Led Movement.

Ms. Rice is a major role model for many young Women and she is a role model for many teenage Black Girls. They see Her success which fosters a belief within them that they also can be anything they choose in today's America. She is also a significant symbol for many white males, too. It is a good thing for white males to contemplate that there will be a day in the not too distant future when they will be reporting to a Superior Black Woman. It is happening more and more where white males are now encountering a Boss who is Black and Female.

As our nation transitions away from white male hegemony, Ms. Rice has become a pivotal Female figure. Her story will become the foundation for a future society that will be built upon Female Leadership.

Do you melt and become intimidated by a Woman wearing a uniform or a dress?
