Little Red Riding Hood
Little Red Riding Hood searching for the wolf...
When we are young and slowly grow into adulthood, there is a certain period we don’t want to be a good girl or boy anymore, we don’t want to be pretty and nice and we don’t want to be a virgin, because this means we are still a child … and above all, we want to be “unique”. In this period, we look for the “wolf”: danger and excitement. We search for the borders and we break the rules. And at a certain age, we can do this all, because “the world” will forgive our foolish youth mistakes. After we “had it all”, peace can come and we move on, searching for other –more wise- ways to express our identity.
