Fun on the
boardwalk
If you're in the Interlake
and your eyes
need a break from
the silver screen,
head down the road
to Winnipeg Beach
for Boardwalk Days!
The annual summer
festival is happening
July 26- 28 and
includes a huge
midway, an outdoor
market and Saturday-
night fireworks.
The parade cruises
down Main Street
at 11 a. m. Saturday,
and there's a
pancake breakfast
from 8 a. m. to noon
on Sunday.
Ballet in the
Park
The Royal Winnipeg
Ballet is treating us
once again to three
evenings of ballet
and contemporary
dance at the Lyric
theatre at Assiniboine
Park. Ballet
in the Park is one of
my favourite RWB
events of the year,
first of all because
it's free, but also
because it's the
perfect way to enjoy
a Winnipeg summer
evening outdoors.
The shows start at
7: 30 p. m., but if
you're there early,
you can also watch
the dancers warm
up, which can be as
fascinating as the
dance itself. Ballet
in the Park is on
July 24- 26.
Bikes, beer
and Birds Hill
Can you think of a
better combo? I bet
you can't! A genius
with the Downtown
Winnipeg BIZ has
organized a bike
tour every Thursday
evening in August
that departs from
downtown, led by
the executive director
of the Downtown
BIZ, cruises down
the city's bike paths
to Birds Hill Park
and ends up back
downtown at a patio
for a cold, refreshing
beer. The ride is
about 50 kilometres
round- trip and
departs at 4: 30 p. m.
The ride is free, but
you have to register
by emailing info@

Frolic at the
Fringe
There's still a whole
week left to Fringe
it up! If you haven't
got the chance to
take in any or many
shows, or just chill
out and take in the
Fringe- y vibes at
Old Market Square,
now's the time! One
to check out upon
my recommendation
is Jumpman
Bros. and the Epic
Morning Machine .
The show works
as a sequel to last
year's Jumpman
Bros. and combines
much- loved classic
cartoons, an
accidental time machine,
live performance,
green- screen
animation and it's
really cool. It plays
at the Planetarium
Auditorium.
In a different
light
If you're already in
the Exchange taking
in Fringe activities,
why not pop into
the Cre8ery Gallery
( second floor, 125
Adelaide St.) to take
a peek at Winnipeg
photographer Ralph
Croning's solo photography
exhibition?
Croning was handed
a camera at age
five, and has been
honing his skills
ever since. This
exhibition, called
In a Different Light,
features a collection
of infrared landscapes
he captured
using an on- camera
filter, creating landscapes
that have a
surreal, dreamlike
and otherworldly
look to them.
Folklorama
kickoff
Folklorama is one of
my favourite fests of
the summer, mostly
because I love
eating. I also love
checking out what
the many, many
cultural groups that
populate this city
are all about - it
just so happens
that taste- testing
signature dishes is
a huge part of that!
Save your appetite
for when you visit
the pavilions, but
get to The Forks
on Saturday, July
27 for a free sneak
peek of the entertainment.
The event
at the Scotiabank
Stage goes from
4- 11 p. m., ending
with fireworks at
10: 45.
N EW YORK - It cannot possibly be news
to even someone living on a remote island
in the Pacific Ocean that college students
sometimes detach sex from love, so why are we
endlessly declaring what is now called " the hookup
culture" and what used to be called " the sexual
revolution" a huge new story? The continued
struggle in prominent liberal places like the New
York Times to come to terms with one of the more
obvious and basic realities of modern sexuality
is, I think, worth thinking about; the real news
story is not " she can play that game, too," but
" why is the New York Times still marvelling over
women who sleep around just for the sake of it?"
The underlying taboo here is no longer young
women having sex, which the culture at large has
come to terms with, but young women actively,
consciously seeking out sex without love; it is the
cool, calculating search for sexual encounters,
without even a secret hope or desire for emotional
entanglement, that still shocks. ( And stories
like the New York Times' always include ritualistic
reassurance that there are still some girls who
" longed for boyfriends and deeper attachments.")
There is also the continued critical fuss over
television shows that bring " news" of women who
sleep with men and are not necessarily looking
for boyfriends or in thrall to romantic aspirations
( see the fresh wonder greeting Girls ). These
shows seem perpetually " new" to us, even though
the topic has been one of pretty constant interest
since the days of Henry James' Daisy Miller or
Max Beerbohm's Zuleika Dobson or Jane Austen's
Lady Susan ( and even earlier if you look at
Chaucer or Boccaccio or Moll Flanders .)
The sense of taboo or fascination remains
remarkably robust, even though this fall will
see the 40th- anniversary reissue of Erica Jong's
Fear of Flying , which put forth the idea of a " zipless
f---." Even earlier, in 1942, Mary McCarthy
comically anatomized a one- night stand on a train
with a man her character found mostly repellent
in The Man in the Brooks Brothers' Shirt . Women
writers have been analyzing the myriad ways
sex can be independent from love for a very long
time, and yet we continue ( or I should say some
editor at the New York Times continues) to be
scandalized or titillated by or interested in the
most banal utterances of a college student: " We
don't really like each other in person, sober... we
literally can't sit down and have coffee," and " I
definitely wouldn't say I've regretted any of my
one- night stands."
" Hookup culture" ( a term that itself tries to
repackage something banal or familiar as " new")
has been explained as victimizing women ( who,
of course, are too Harlequin Romance- ish to want
sex without secretly yearning for a boyfriend);
or else it is analyzed as being part of the new,
driving female ambition, which is to say that
women are focusing on their careers at an early
age and don't want or have time for love. ( As
the New York Times put this emergent clich�:
" These women said they saw building resum�s,
not finding boyfriends ( never mind husbands), as
their main job at Penn.") This may be true, but it
may also be true ( and not exactly exciting) that
there are college students who sleep around just
because they feel like it ( not to mention women
of all ages). It may, in fact, be a phenomenon that
doesn't have to be explained or accounted for or
culturally deconstructed or politically analyzed.
It may be much murkier - a moment, a phase, a
situation, an evening, a mood - in an irreducibly
individual woman's life.
Because we still find the idea of a woman who
is not at all times looking for love or imbuing her
affairs with romantic ambitions so puzzling or bewildering
or exotic, we are especially interested
in cartoons or caricatures of the type. The latest
of these to grab our attention is Celeste Price in
Alissa Nutting's Tampa , a teacher whose lust for
high school students is remarkable in its calculation,
its chilliness, its absolute refusal of romantic
overlay. Nutting classifies her as " a remorseless
libido in heels." She says she did not want to
fall into " the current trap of reading the female
predator in a sympathetic light." What renders
Nutting's character so unsympathetic is that she
is not dreamy or rapturous or deluded about her
transgressions; she is only interested in sexual
gratification, lust in its purest, most alienating
forms. Nutting calls her a " monster," and she is a
monster, because she has no feelings for anyone
besides herself. However, the generations of
women who sleep with men they don't want to
marry or live with because they want adventure,
or because they are bored, or because they are
attracted to them, or because they are afraid of
death, or because they are restless, or because
they are craving intensity on a particular night,
or because they just feel like it are not at all
monstrous or even interesting. Mary McCarthy
evokes these women in her story about the onenight
stand on the train when she quotes Chaucer,
'' I am my own woman well at ease."
