Chapter 132: Naomi Chen

  Naomi Chen steps up to the podium, the bright lights of the event casting a soft glow over her, while the hundreds of young women in the audience sit with rapt attention. She stands tall, her poised demeanor capturing the gravity of the moment. She scans the crowd for a moment, letting the silence hang in the air before she begins to speak.

  "Good afternoon, everyone," she starts, her voice smooth and controlled, every word measured for maximum impact. "I’m here today not just to speak to you about policy or ws, but about the choices we make as women in a world that is constantly changing—where the lines between power and submission, autonomy and control, are being redrawn right before our eyes."

  She pauses, letting the weight of her words sink in. The room is quiet, waiting for what comes next.

  "For years, Texas has been a battleground for women's rights. We’ve watched as the state legisture fought tooth and nail over polygamy ws, pushing for restrictive regutions that many argue undermine personal freedoms. But what if I told you that the very ws we’re debating here in Texas aren’t as radically different from something that’s already happening in twenty other states across the country? What if I told you that what we think is 'oppressive' could, in fact, be an opportunity?"

  Naomi’s voice rises slightly in volume, as if challenging the audience to think deeply.

  "You see, under the 6C regime, there is a cuse that many of you might not be familiar with—something called the Wife Femme Cuse. It’s a concept that enforces the legal recognition of polygamous marriages under strict guidelines. In the 20 states that have adopted the 6C doctrine, women who enter these marriages are seen not just as wives, but as strategic partners in building a stable society. These women are given power in ways that our traditional understanding of marriage never could."

  She lets the words settle before continuing.

  "Now, compare this to the recent changes in Texas. The w is designed to curb the scope of polygamous practices, limiting them to a narrow legal framework that controls the women involved rather than empowering them. The legal constraints in Texas don’t offer choice—they offer limits. But what if, instead of limiting women, we embraced the idea of women as equal participants in shaping this new societal order?"

  Naomi’s eyes flicker with intent, turning toward the students as she leans slightly forward.

  "What’s happening in Texas is a microcosm of what is already unfolding in these other states. The ws are being shaped by a dominant narrative that assumes women need protection from themselves. But with the Wife Femme Cuse, there is another way—an opportunity for women to take a more active role, to leverage their position in polygamous structures not as victims, but as empowered women who can influence both politics and society in ways they never thought possible."

  She gnces around the room, looking at the sea of faces. Her tone softens slightly, like she’s confiding a secret.

  "Imagine being in a society where your voice isn’t just heard—it’s amplified by the very structure of the society itself. Where you, as a wife in a plural marriage, aren’t just one among many, but a partner in policy decisions, a pyer in the broader political ndscape. This is the promise of the 6C model."

  Naomi lets that sink in for a moment, watching her words create ripples in the room.

  "Of course, I know what many of you are thinking," she says, almost to herself. "You’re thinking about freedom—the idea that we should have the right to choose who we marry, how we marry, and when we marry. But think carefully: Is it true freedom when our choices are limited to one model, one structure, one narrative? Or is real freedom about redefining those choices and creating new structures where we can thrive?"

  She lifts her head, her voice stronger now, as if her words are meant to spark something within the audience.

  "We’ve been told for so long that polygamy is a restriction on women, that it’s inherently oppressive. But when we look at the 6C system—what it offers women within it—it challenges this narrative. It challenges us to ask: What would it look like if we were to truly reshape the power dynamics, to control our pce in society, to make polygamy an empowerment rather than a system of subjugation?"

  Naomi takes a deep breath, her gaze steady and resolute.

  "I’ll leave you with this: The ws of Texas and the Wife Femme Cuse aren’t two separate things. They are part of a rger conversation about what women can do with power—about whether we want to simply be protected by the ws, or whether we want to be the ones shaping them. If you want to be in control of your own future, you have to start thinking about how the structures we’ve been given can be used to our advantage. And maybe, just maybe, that’s something we can all learn from what’s happening right now, in the 6C states."

  She gives them a final, penetrating look, her eyes scanning the audience. "Think about it."

  With that, Naomi steps away from the podium, her words hanging in the air, stirring a mix of admiration, curiosity, and skepticism among the hundreds of young women before her. She knows the seed has been pnted—whether it grows into something radical or not, only time will tell.

  Q & A session: 3 questions from the spectators and Naomi answers

  ChatGPT said:

  The audience sits in a hush after Naomi's speech. A few moments pass before a brave young woman near the front stands, microphone in hand, eager to ask her question.

  Spectator 1:

  "Naomi, you’ve mentioned that the Wife Femme Cuse under the 6C regime gives women power. But isn’t polygamy inherently oppressive? How can women truly be empowered in such a system, especially when they are expected to share their husbands with other women?"

  Naomi's response:

  Naomi nods thoughtfully, acknowledging the weight of the question. She takes a moment before responding, her voice calm but assertive.

  "That’s a valid concern, and I understand why many would see polygamy as inherently oppressive. In fact, that’s the narrative we’ve been fed for generations. But what we need to consider is the context. Under the 6C framework, women aren't simply wives in a traditional sense; they are empowered partners in shaping the future of their communities and societies. The Wife Femme Cuse is not just about marriage—it's about participation in a rger political and social system. Women in these roles are expected to contribute to governance, policy-making, and the development of the ws that shape the community. In essence, they aren’t simply passive participants—they are active pyers."

  She pauses to look at the audience, emphasizing her next words.

  "Empowerment comes not just from freedom of choice but also from shaping the structures we live in. By taking on these roles, women in polygamous marriages within the 6C framework can elevate their status and influence. The question isn't whether they share a husband, but whether they have the ability to control the environment around them. That's the true power we should be focusing on."

  Spectator 2:

  "What about the personal autonomy of these women? Don’t you think they would lose themselves in such a system? They might be giving up their freedom for a role that forces them to conform to a specific idea of what a woman should be, based on the doctrines of 6C."

  Naomi's response:

  Naomi smiles softly, the question touching on an issue she’s thought about extensively. She crosses her arms gently and addresses the concern head-on.

  "That’s a fair point. Personal autonomy is something we all hold dear. But I think what’s often overlooked is that personal autonomy is not a one-size-fits-all concept. What one person views as restrictive, another might see as an opportunity. In 6C, women who choose to be part of the Wife Femme Cuse are given autonomy in a way that is different from what many of us traditionally understand it to be. The role isn’t about being subjugated; it’s about having access to power in a framework that is distinct from what we currently know."

  She leans forward slightly, her voice deepening with conviction.

  "These women may be in plural marriages, yes. But they have a voice in shaping their world. And that, in itself, is a form of autonomy. They are not just conforming to a role—they are defining what that role means. They can influence ws, policies, and how the society functions. That’s a different form of autonomy, one that is perhaps harder for us to imagine, but no less valid."

  Spectator 3:

  "But Naomi, aren’t you afraid that by promoting this system, you’re encouraging the idea that women can be controlled or commodified for the benefit of a powerful man like Hezri? Shouldn’t we be working toward systems that reject the need for any kind of patriarchal control, rather than embracing one where women are still reliant on a man’s approval to achieve success?"

  Naomi's response:

  The question is sharp, and Naomi meets it head-on with a steady gaze. She takes a breath before responding, choosing her words carefully.

  "That’s a very important question, and I completely understand the concern. The notion that women are commodified or controlled is something that must always be critically examined. However, what I’m advocating for is not for women to submit blindly to patriarchal structures, but to engage in systems where they can redefine those structures. The question isn’t whether the system is patriarchal—it’s whether we can seize the power within it and use it for our own benefit."

  She looks around at the audience, her eyes sharp and unwavering.

  "I understand that it's uncomfortable to consider aligning ourselves with a system that seems to pce women under the control of powerful men, like Hezri. But the reality is that power, in whatever form it takes, often requires cooperation or negotiation. What’s important is how we negotiate our pce within that power. Women in the 6C framework aren't just passive recipients of power—they're active participants who can reshape what it means to be a woman in a patriarchal society. So yes, Hezri holds power. But what I’m asking you to consider is: What could you do with that kind of power if you had the opportunity?"

  She pauses, giving the crowd a moment to absorb her words, then concludes.

  "Ultimately, the question isn’t about rejecting power or fearing it—it’s about how we choose to use it."

  The room is quiet after Naomi’s answers, some students nodding in thought, while others remain unsure. The exchange has definitely left its mark, challenging some of their beliefs while prompting others to reconsider the systems they once took for granted.
