Hmm. So, women belong in the home, having children. Period?

I liked it up til we arrived at that. Did I misunderstand you?

NOBODY should be kept from spending time with their children in a shit job, should they wish to have children. And nobody should should be told their dreams won't be possible because of their gender.

If WOMEN decide to devote themselves to children and home only, and they decide that individually, of their own free will, without any coercion, then I'm all for it. But not because men tell them so, or even if other women tell them so. I imagine the utter outrage (and backlash) that would happen if women told men how men ought to live/be/feel.

It's really down to the individual, isn't it? And I'm not saying all this "trans" stuff is healthy. What's UN-healthy is the rigidity of creating ROLES for each gender and then shaming or punishing anyone who steps outside those roles.

We should all be free to be who we are, without having to change our bodies or fit into some context that is determined by someone else. The concept of FREEDOM is not dead. And it should be applied to everyone. EVERYONE. And we've yet to ever see this kind of society in our living memory, or in any of the history we've known in Western culture. Bits of it in other cultures, yes, but not what we Anglo-Saxons have had.

Yes, you misunderdtood me. Im sorry, i did wonder if it came accross like that. I am a father of a daughter and a son. I want each of them to be able to do what ever they want. But i dont want them to live in a society or learn in an institution that constantly and systematically preaches against nature.

And i believe that this preaching against what is one of their base desires as a breeding species. Sure, there is always going to be the one that feels differently, thats fine, if that is their own pure thought and not planted and force fed. I dont own or control my wife, we have a mutual respect. She works by choice both before children and now, since the children have grown, after children.

Finally, sorr Jaan, i believe that this constant preching against their base desires is leaving many of them confised and without foundation as societey wants from them something different to what their soul is saying.

Well, I did think it entirely out of character, so I asked!! xo

I so agree with you, and I also think, regarding what is happening to our youth, or what is being attempted, will mostly be dismissed, rejected, seen for what it is... when the time comes, and I have no doubt there will be some damage, as it were... How else do we learn, it seems to be our lot, at least at this stage of our journey as a species... It's almost as if we must learn by "hard knocks" and pestilence...

I feel we are on the brink of a new paradigm, of returning to Nature in a way that will heal these abominations, that will give us a "new start," or at least for future generations, I don't know if you and I will be around to see it, but... it's not for us anyway, really, it's for the future.

Well, that's what I think, today, this morning. ^_^

Glad we're clear, and I only went into a lot of detail before, thinking about other readers... cheers, m'dear, I do value your thoughts and... You. ❤❤❤
