"Adiat," "haidia," or "fashion" consists in devising new means of being-manifestation for ordinary existence,and various methods of changing and disguising the reality of one's presence.
"Adiat," "haidia," or "fashion" play the same role in their daily being existence as those customs of ours which are established to alleviate the inevitable external conditions independent of beings, customs that gradually enter into use everywhere as as essential need. These contemporary customs or "fashions" of theirs, on the other hand, are first merely temporary and serve only for the satisfaction of the insignificant personal aims of these present and futurehasnamusses, whichhave become utterly abnormal and trivially egoistic, and second, they are neither more nor less than the results of automatic reasoning based on relative notions flowing from the abnormally established conditions of ordinary being existence there.
And so about half a century ago, in this city of Paris, certain candidates for hasnamus invented for beings of the female sex to wear their hair short, and this maleficent invention of theirs spread like wildfire by the usual well proven ways and means.
However, as at that period the feelings of "morality," and "patriarchality," were still very strong in the beings of the female sex of the community of France, they did not adopt this harmful invention, it was the beings of the female sex of England and America who adopted it and began cutting their hair.
Moreover, as the beings of the female sex of both these communities thus deliberately deprived themselves of that part of their presence which is adapted for certain exchanges of cosmic substances, Great Nature did not fail to react, and began to produce corresponding results, which will assuredly take such froms as have already arisen twice on this planet. The first time, in the country of "Uneano," now "kafiristan" where what are called "Amazons" appeared, and the second time in ancient Greece, where the "religion of the poetess Sappho" was founded.
Meanwhile, in these two contemporary communities of England and America, the cutting of womens hair has already produced in the first case "suffragettes," and in the second, what are called "christian scientists," and "theosophists". Moreover, when this hasnamussian fashion of cutting the hair of female beings became widespread, a proportionate increase was observed everywhere as I was informed by the etherogram I recieved, in what they call "womens diseases," that is, various sorts of inflammation of the sexual organs, such as vaginitis, uteritis, ovaritis, as well as fibrous tumors, and cancer.
