Everything is decided before you. How to look, who to be, who to belong to – all handed over ready-made, before your own "want" has appeared. Your looks, your lineage, your belonging are issued the way an allotment is issued: not made to fit you, but simply given to you. You're dressed before you've had time to take shape, and by the time you could choose, you're already dressed in something. What is yours comes last.
