“A woman who was a virgin had vanquished the Devil through her purity, which was unassailable in its perfection. We were made to understand that the evil over which she stood in triumph, and for which she was exalted, was the evil of the flesh, of lust, the desire to commit unmentionable acts.”

Human society is constructed based on men’s emotions.

“The most we can hope for, in Celtic society at any rate, is evidence of a more balanced relationship between the sexes. Misogyny will show that this balance was lost with the rise of Greece and Rome,…”

I know that I am not a man because I don’t feel a man inside, but  I also don’t feel aligned with images of women that society portrays. I am not submissive, dedicated, tender, sexy, cute, etc.. I have no intention to give any pleasure to men. I know I was born as a girl, I have lived in women’s circles, and I feel comfortable being with women, but I feel unconfortable when I am forced into any category of the female image that men expect. I just don’t fit in any of them. I cook because I like to eat and am interested in food. I like to stay home because I am a homebody. I feel very wrong when my traits are considered as a dedicating mother. I am very opposite. I always struggle to put others first. I feel so lucky that I have the capacity to adore my kids, otherwise I could have run away from responsibilities. I can’t be what I don’t feel even though society expects me to become one unless I become hollow inside, which men expect of  all women. But men feel the women worthless even though they wanted women to be that way so badly. How ridiculous that is. How pitiful men are. I feel men’s fear toward women. They are afraid of what we have. Our chaos? Anyway, only what’s clear is that we have power to make men feel threatened.
