In
previous discussions, we have examined the causes, positives, and negatives of a feminized society. It is
time to give a final, overarching assessment of a feminized society.
Men and
women are biologically designed to think and act in different and complementary
ways. They have different strengths and weaknesses, and complete and complement
each other.
An ideal
society should strike a balance between male and female principles, reflecting
the complementary natures of men and women.
In an
ideal society, men and women would work together, so that both they and those
of the opposite gender might be happy. But the natural unity that should
exist between both sexes is transformed into competition by
fallen humans, who seek their OWN pleasure and their OWN happiness. Both men and
women accordingly attempt to control rather than assist one another.
Women and men attempt to assert control over
the other sex in different ways. Men attempt to assert control over women
through greater physical strength and aggressive temperament, and women attempt
to assert control over men through their bodies.
In modern society, men’s sexual desires are effectively
inflamed to the point of obsession by pornography, contraception, and other
evils. By contrast, in a modern, technological age men’s greater physical
strength becomes unnecessary (except in isolated places like sports fields),
and an aggressive temperament is often a liability.
The result is that modern women are often
able to easily control men with their bodies, shifting society in the
direction of feminization.
Ironically, the weaknesses of women become
more pronounced in a world where women dominate, while even the strengths of
women are poisoned by the lack of a male counterbalance. For example, the
woman’s greater capacity for communication in a feminized society manifests
into a slavish devotion to electronic “connecting” outlets that facilitate
isolation rather than authentic communication. (An over-masculinized society
suffers from these problems in reverse. For example, the directness of man easily
devolves into cruelty.)
Simply
put, an overly feminized society is a society in peril, just as an overly
masculinized society is a suffering society. A society which balances the
strengths of men and women, and values the contributions of each, is a healthy
society.
