Description

"We have met the enemy and she is us." to paraphrase Garfield (Walt Kelly). This current surge for women's recognition, support and respect, will fade away the same as all the other women's attempts at reform, an awakening, clear thinking, intelligent discourse and common sense. For every woman who understands that "equality" does not mean "control," "oppression," "hatred" and "rejection," many other women think we're bitter man haters, lesbians, unfulfilled, frigid, deranged and socially warped. When the President of the United States can stand in front of hundreds of women, ridicule one of "us," make a fool of one of "us," (Dr. Ford) and the women in the audience, applaud, cheer him on - what does that tell you about our opinion of women! Our selves! You! Our covert opinion of our own worth! When a woman complains about a man annoying her, a common response - from other women is, "You just don't understand him..." Meaning, women aren't "fair" to the men; we need to try to understand them... sacrifice ourselves...be nice...be sweet...in other words talk down to men. When you talk "down" to someone, you talk "down" to yourself. How does that gain us respect? But, if, as a woman, you believe you're not getting the respect you deserve, let's find out what you may be doing "wrong." It's possible you are your own problem. As we go through this book let's count the ways we women could improve, and by default, lift up society - respect ourselves.
