What Can You Expect?
Quote From: wendydarlingtx "Life will be very different when the Feminine comes back into power and
when the masculine (intellect) learns to serve her rather than dominate
her."
What??? Are you kidding me? Are you implying that the intellect is
mainly prominent in males only, whereas women are mainly ruled by their
intuition and "emotional wisdom?"
Give me a BREAK, lady! And I will bet all the tea in Sri Lanka that
you're a lady, and maybe you just took a class in Women's Studies, and
that while you think you're advocating feminism and the rights of
women, you're simply REINFORCING STEREOTYPES with this nonsensical
spiel.
Women and men are not inherenlty better than each other. Grief only
comes when people like you think the two sexes should be pitted against
each other. That is hugely absurd and destructive. Women and men are
all human beings, and complement and need each other. Don't confuse the
crappiness of individuals with the crappiness of an entire sex. There
are bad men out there, AND there are also plenty of bad women, too. When someone worships at the altar of OPRAH, this is the result. Tilting the playing field the other way is also wrong. Any thinking person knows that men and women are intellectual equals. Your points are well spoken. I do get tired of people quoting Oprah though. She is, at best, an entertainer. Nothing more. She is not the sage of the universe. I heard another female celebrity say of her once"...Oprah, that's a paper cut. Not stigmata!" But again, you are correct and it is time women like yourself speak up and stop letting your gender be hijacked by people like this other writer. Feminism is not wrong. It is simply abused by the bitter and vindicative few.
