KAMALA HARRIS AND THE POWER OF Laughter

KAMALA HARRIS AND THE POWER OF Laughter
The laughter of a woman has in itself an incredible subversive power as in fact it calls into question the social order and it is the greatest political strategy, as in Aristotle’s comedies, and, over the centuries, it has always been contained and limited to a smile because “a woman who laughs is a free woman.” “Laughing is a political act”, strong and destabilizing for the opponent who is forced to resort to old gender stereotypes, associating laughter with madness, sloppy externalization, or an indication of hysteria.
Although women constitute more than half of the world’s population, they are still under-represented, both in politics and biomedical research. One example is the fact that in the past scientific protocols have always been based on male models. Thus, the laughter of women is part of the dispute about right of expression, as in fact laughing, for some, is a male appearance that denotes strength, pride, self-determination, and power control.
A laugh is likely to “bury prejudices” rooted for centuries, which considered a woman laughing dangerous. There are several written treatises on how to laugh. For example, Aristotle, the second book of his “Poetica,” is focused on comedy and laugh. Laughing is a terribly serious thing. Kamala Harris knows it. Hers is a laugh that has already “conquered” many hearts and her laughter is surely destined to write an important page for all openminded women, who laugh. Freedom passes through the power of a woman’s bright smile.
