Some Holiday Observatrions

Greetings,

well it appears I've stirred up a hornet's nest on one blog I commented on, wasn't my intention but nethertheless,

I seem to do that a lot btw. Anyhow, so I'm reading some of the comments/writings and back in the early days I would have become quite beside myself with rage reading,

not anymore. Maybe, maybe I just see the fanaticism and the ridiculousness of so many things, but too,

the flat out denial of bitterness, resentment and unforgiveness that yes, does blind people's hearts and intentions. That point in life when one has to take a good hard look at when does hurt and anger turn into poison.

This is something I've struggled with through the years working in revolutionary ideology, by work meaning, struggling to overthrow things or systems I thought unjust and not that I don't think they are unjust, they are,

but, there is more to the dynamics I am seeing, more and more. Comparisons,

let me give example, when it comes to seperationists, (sic), sure, I understand the argument and hey, I've been there, done that,

[referring to feminists here] but let me assure you, you could develop an entirely female world and I guarantee you, you'd have women surge ahead and take place of the power hegemony/hierarchy and the strong would oppress the weak. And they would use the same damn excuses men use to rationalize and justify,

and in fact, in Europe, where there HAS been [Russia esp] gender separatists, that is Exactly what happened, I've read so many testimonies of young women who enter into these all female communes only to find they are just as heartless and cruel as men can be. If not more so,

the hierarchy and the power just changes hands, it doesn't miraculously vanish into thin air and some Tinkerbell with a fairy wand taking over and all are like little children,

sorry, but it simply doesn't work that way. The testimonies I have read, once the 'men problem' has been removed, the attacks then go on to attacking those women who yes, have children, I'm referring to die hard anti-men separatists who see MEN as the sole problem and especially White Men [as if patriarchy doesn't exist in other races, which is what really just gets me because women have more damn rights in Western society than in Africa and the Middle East combined],

anyway, the attacks then go towards the woman with children, how dare you fuck a man and bear children, why don't you know, you are contributing to the whole male stratification?

How stupid, seriously, seriously think about it,

for one thing, I've yet to see men bash each other over the choices of men having children,

so to bash women for having children is not emancipation from male power, its just a form of demonization. Pure and simple,

and, isn't that what patriarchy has done all these years? Demonized women for having the capability for bearing children? As if its some curse put on humanity by women,

isn't that the same damn logic that says, Women are from Eve and Eve is evil and therefore women are evil and should be demonized and crucified because of?

I think it is,

I think, demonizing women for sleeping with men and having children is the same damn thing as religious misogynists and political misogynists and individual misogynists when they crucify women and call women the Witch.

When they point the finger of judgment on women and say, Hear Hear Evil One, you deserve death because of your uterus and your ability to love and nuture you have perpetuated the woes and ills on mankind, that Sin, and therefore you should pay,

its the same type of damn hateful logic.

What would happen, if women, all of a sudden never had anything to do with men or ever had one child? Ever again?

I'll tell you what would happen,

PERFECT GENOCIDE OF THE HUMAN RACE [ALL RACES].

The end,

thats what would happen, oh, sure, we could have borgs and machines that would give birth or maybe clones,

people with no souls, we could play God and create humans [I would bet they wouldn't be humans though, they'd be monsters],

etc, etc, etc, and well, gee, that all sounds familiar doesn't it? Isn't that after all what every MALE despot ever wanted, the ability to rip the power of birth and love away from Woman and to become GOD ALMIGHTY themselves and create the perfect human being,

that animal, that monster, the Frankenstein that would do their bidding at their every demand and command?

One woman said, she didn't appreciate the terms forced lesbianism and so forth,

well, I ask, what the hell do you call it?

IF that isn't the agenda, then why harp, and I do mean harp, on women and why BLAME WOMEN for the ills and behaviors of MEN because they Chose, yes Chose, to love,

emphasis on LOVE,

if IT ISN'T ABOUT FORCING SEPARATION,

THEN WHY THE NEED TO CRUCIFY WOMEN?

My point is, women get enough crucification from men, systems, religions around the world, some horribly so and YES, it is petty, to complain about cooking meals for men here,

whether it perpetuates servant status or not, to complain about that when we see 8 year old girls FORCED TO MARRY 50 YEAR OLD MEN IN SO MANY COUNTRIES WITH FORCED FGMS AND FORCED SLAVERY, MIND YOU,

NO CHOICE IN WHO THEY MARRY, LOVE, SLEEP WITH,

if you want to BITCH about servitude and slavery then take a damn good look at the lives of THOSE WOMEN/GIRLS

who would give an arm to have the ABILITY TO CHOOSE, WHO THEY SLEEP WITH, WHO THEY COOK FOR, WHO THEY CLEAN FOR,

choices that Yes, WE TAKE FOR GRANTED HERE.

And on that note, what Is so wrong with taking care of people, of kids, of yes, a husband [or a wife for that matter]?

Some women make it sound that its only women who cook, clean, care for the Man, so to speak,

let me tell you, there is an old man with gout across the street from me who has been COOKING, CLEANING, CARING FOR, STAYING UP ALL HOURS OF NIGHT, CARING FOR HIS WIFE,

who is very sick, bedridden, there isn't children caring for her, oh no, its him and only Him,

and he can barely walk most days and you want to know something, I've yet, in the four years I've known him, ever heard him bitch or complain about how horrid it is, the system how he is enslaved to his wife,

and not ONE man would ever say, by his Choosing to care for her, he is somehow contributing to the evils of male oppression.

It would be unthought of,

but now, if He was a She and that wife was a Husband,

why, oh, lets get out the nails and the wooden cross and by golly lets hang her because that bitch is perpetuating the whole patriarchal framework,

and oh, we'll do this in the name and glory of Radical Feminism because by golly we are out to free women,

BULLSHIT!

No, mentality like that, isn't out to free anyone,

they just want to place blame, blame and hatred.

Their views are DISTORTED, and I don't mind saying so.

God help us, seriously, the day we don't have any who want to nuture or care,

does this mean that the scales aren't unbalanced and men don't benefit from the gender roles of caring and so forth?

No, of course the roles are Unbalanced, of course there is abuse of that, I won't deny it,

but I can tell you, the answer isn't ripping women away from men, and forming some borg society where no one does a damn thing for anyone,

no, the Answer is teaching our Sons to be giving and fair--that ALL HUMANS SERVE ONE ANOTHER,

its really so damn easy of an answer,

and you won't ever have that kind of a world when you Demonize men or demonize women. Nor will we have that kind of world when we try to FORCE be it by physical force or PSYCHOLOGICAL GUILT TRIPS/THAT MENTAL CRUCIFYING on people,

Women don't need to hear anymore garbage about how their sacrifices and giving and love is contributing to the Evil of patriarchy,

no, you want to know what I think--take a damn good look at the millions of street children who are Dying and being exploited in the world,

THATS what you will get when you rip away all the nuturing and caring from the world, and the FACT that yes, it is women, who do the majority of this care and love,

says something GOOD ABOUT WOMEN,

a LOT of good,

not something to Destroy, oh no, turning them into callous unfeeling men or into that whole male patriarchal psychology [that power ego thing],

instead of Demonizing those traits we should be holding them up for praise and virtue as they rightfully deserve and we should be ENCOURAGING ALL HUMANS, MALE AND FEMALE

TO TAKE THOSE AS EXAMPLES AND LIVE THOSE ACTS OF KINDNESS EVERY DAY TO EVERYONE,

whether those receiving deserve it or not.

Keep pushing for a cold, uncaring, self absorbed world and you'll get just that,

and when you get to be about ninety years old and there are no children and there are no men or women/daughters to care for you because hey, we can't have that servitude now can we,

don't bitch, when you die alone in bedsores and your own vomit.

There is something to be said about SERVING ANOTHER,

no, it should not be forced, granted,

but God help us, the day we live in a world, that has rejected serving one another, and yes, that includes,

serving men.
