Feminism must ultimately fail if it ignores hormones

By Brian Holden - posted Wednesday, 4 August 2010


Feminists should notice that life in this country offers limitless ways to enjoy it without being the boss of anyone.

There is a male distrust of the female seeking the modern female’s interpretation of personal fulfillment. The cost to young women in general is a reluctance by their boyfriends of many years to commit. This is starkly different to the rapid commitment courting grandpa made to courting grandma and his life-long commitment to her after their marriage.

Women now dress-up as soldiers and police officers in boots and with guns. It is claimed that sexual harassment is rife throughout the armed forces. That is due to the males not seeing the females in uniform as the keystone of civilisation - but as desirable sexual objects. So, even the penalty of a ruined career is still not sufficient to keep males in check when females are in the wrong environment. That reality should deliver a message to the “progressives” and their political correctness.

Is the harassment in the armed forces (which is not only more common but apparently more aggressive than in the commercial world) due to a subconscious resentment of the women being in a traditional male environment - a way to strike out at the invader?

Today’s agitating feminists, living in prosperity, need to define their gains in the sobering context of history and science. They are deluding themselves into believing that:

  • the influence of hormones on male thinking can be permanently subdued - regardless of what the DNA instructions are; and that
  • what has been gained so far in prosperous times does not need a continuing prosperity to sustain them.

In their delusion they see the increasing number of single mothers and the increasing number of female executives as a reflection of women’s liberation to pursue happiness without sexist impediments. But fulfilment does not automatically follow from being equals in power or equals in wealth.

Salvation resides in bonding hormones

There is one male-female relationship that works well. It is the mother-son relationship. There is no clash of male and female hormones here as bonding hormones make the permanent peace between the brain of the mother and the brain of the son.

Nothing is as enriching to a life than is the receiving and giving of unconditional love. It is the environment of bonding hormones where women in general are most likely to find fulfillment and the unconditional love every single one of them earnestly desires.

Feminists who are counting the number of women sitting around boardroom tables where there are no bonding hormones at work, are on the wrong track and should not be followed.
