aised slightly off the floor. The policeman, sitting, is apparentlyfucking her in the ass.Fourth, fifth, and sixth photographs, two full pages: In the fourthphotograph, the policeman sits drinking tequila from a bottle. Thewoman sits on the floor masturbating. The man in the cell holds thearm of the woman and watches her masturbate. He and the womanhold the keys to the cell. In the fifth photograph, the woman isnaked. Her arms are stretched to hold the top crossbar of thedoorway of the now open cell. The Anglo man holds her frombehind around the waist. He appears to be fucking her. In the sixthphotograph, the Anglo man is sitting on the bed in the cell. Hishands are embracing the woman’s back. The woman is on herknees. Her ass is in the forefront of the photograph. Labia hangbetween her legs.Seventh photograph, two full pages: The woman is on the bed inthe cell, legs spread, vulva bright pink, masturbating. The skin justbelow her knee is badly bruised. The Anglo man is on his knees onthe floor. His ass is emphasized by his position. His mouth isapproaching her breast. In the background, through the bars of thecell, the policeman is sleeping, his rifle upright beside him.Eighth photograph, one full page: The Anglo man and thewoman are on the bed. Her vulva, painted pink, is exposed by thespread of her legs. His hand is on the inside of her thigh. H er handis just above his balls.N inth photograph, one full page: The woman is on top, the manis under her, they appear to be fucking, he appears to be completelyinside her.Tenth photograph, two full pages: The woman lies in theforefront masturbating, her vulva is extremely pink, the manreclines behind her. The bruises on the woman’s leg are in theforefront of the photograph.According to the text, printed within the photographic frames,the woman is named Consuela (“consolation”). Consuela has aYankee boyfriend. He got into a fight in a bar and was arrested.Consuela cannot bear to be without him; so, “driven by passion, shebribes her way past her lover’s jailer. The guard has no trouble
getting it up for the hot-blooded senorita, but he’s a mite greedy.Finally, he O D ’s on lust (and tequila). ” T he boyfriend "has had towatch and now he’s a little greedy himself. ” T he moral of the storyis that “[a] spell in jail doesn’t seem such a terrible fate after all. ”Everyone’s skin is approximately the same color, a light brown.Consuela and the policeman have black hair. T he policeman has ablack mustache. T he boyfriend has lighter hair, still brown, and hetoo has a mustache with stubble making a dark, shadowy beard.Consuela’s lips are painted a glossy pinkish red, her nails are aduller red, her vulva is pink. She wears a bright red flower behindone ear. Consuela’s facial expressions indicate rapture, except in thephotograph in which she is being fucked in the ass by thepoliceman— there her expression indicates pain and rapture. H erboyfriend’s expressions indicate rapture. T he policeman’s face ishard and indifferent. One never sees his eyes. They are alwayseither blocked by the visor on his policeman’s cap, which he wearsthroughout, or they are closed. Consuela is “the hot-bloodedsenorita, ” the ethnic slur cast so as to be both specific (she isMexican) and evocative (she is the hot-blooded Latin or Hispanicwoman, the hot woman of the south, Carmen Miranda or D. H .Lawrence’s mythic Etruscan female). She is the woman sexed bythe climate. T he color of her skin signals the climate. T he climatesignals the color of her skin. T he text refers to “Siesta tim e” and“the sticky heat” and the cockroaches in the cell, so that the heat ofthe climate is part of the sexual imagery. T he heat of the climateheats the blood of “the hot-blooded senorita, ” heats her skin, heatsher sex. She happily offers herself to the policeman because shem ust be fucked by her boyfriend. In the Anglo-Amerikan sexuallexicon, the Latin or Hispanic woman is the woman who cannot dowithout it. She begs for it. W ith Mexicans and Puerto Ricansamong the poorest of the poor in the United States and withMexicans particularly despised and exploited as aliens, the photographshave a cruel immediacy. T he depiction of “the hot-bloodedsenorita” who is willing to do anything— even to submit sexually toone of her own kind— in order to be fucked by her Anglo boyfriendembodies an imperial malice. She is used by the Mexican policeman
