, she was weak and hesitant like a chick, repressed and endured, enjoying beautiful pink fruits, or forcing herself to swallow the decorated cream cake to make a sound of praise. Everything about White Nina is soft, docile and controlled. Such a chick, the world is simple.
However, such simplicity cannot last forever, she will eventually have to face a complex society and a complex self. At first, she was overwhelmed by this complexity and could not do anything. Mentors, parents, and friends exerted her influence at all levels, causing the white Nina of the child and the self-determined black Nina to constantly fight, split, overlap, and intertwine.
Gray Thomas repeatedly asked Nina to experience the pleasure of Sex. At first, it looks like the serpent that lured Eve to fall. Sexual maturity is a sign of the completion of an individual's growth. The shift from fear and disgust to enjoyment in this regard means that psychological growth is complete. Masturbation is the embodiment of narcissism, and one of Thomas' duties is to release that black swan, so he wants to teach Nina to appreciate herself. The instructor constantly stimulated her spirit with positive and negative electrodes, making her switch between pleasure, inferiority, anger, fear, and bravery in order to see and grasp the true self in the core.
Happy indulgent Lily, naked pursuit of pleasure: drugs, alcohol, parties, even dancing. The seductive black swan is her own raunchy performance. Black swans do not represent evil, they simply comply with desires and desire to possess.
However, the mother's requirements for Nina have been gradually internalized, becoming the inner parent within her, and the inner child of her nature is constantly being criticized by the inner parent. Even when the mother is not around, the code of conduct set by the mother controls all her behavior. Nina's mother loves her and sees her as a continuation of her life; but her mother also hates her because she is the end of her dance life. Such a tangled family relationship is like a noose, binding the increasingly released independent spirit more and more tightly.
Until a "deviance" that is not known whether it is real or imaginary appeared, thorns and strong wings began to grow from the fluff. Guided by the gray Thomas and the black Lily, the confrontation between the white Nina and the parents emerges. The end result is "You're not my Nina again", yes, give up submission and stay away from mother's pink protection. Change is growth. This is the inevitable result of gene transmission, no matter how small it is, it will always evolve.
The long adolescence is over, tearing apart the initially tender body and soul, a dancer who grows upward, awakens, transforms, completes, and lives in the face of death.
