The Fall of MAN
Wow,
I think this thread is officially longer than "War and Peace".......Many good thoughts offered here......Some dysfunctional ones as well....But the issue does have merit.......
The idea that a Man must always please a Women in bed is just the tip of the Iceberg.....It really is indicative of a much larger social issue......Liberation.......The word in itself implies rebellion....in this case against the natural order......I am not pointing fingers here I don't blame women for wanting more rights in this modern social strata in which we live.....It was bound to happen....that’s obviously why it did.....But every time u mess with the natural order you inherit man made problems......Hence this profoundly long age old argument….Men vs. Women……So how did this mess set started……?
In the days of old Men, through there God given instincts were sworn to Protect and Provide for there Women and there families against a cruel natural world where human life itself was constantly on the verge of extinction……This was a noble sacrifice….A Woman needed a man to protect her and provision for the family that they would make together, needless to say Women respected Men for there abilities….and freely gave themselves to there Men in gratitude. This is the way God intended it to be….It’s what I call natural equality…..…..The rewards in such a harsh reality was that the Man not the Women were the authority, and all responsibility fell on a Mans shoulders to oversee the well being of his Wife and siblings…..This naturally gave Men all the rights in the outward world in which they built. Women stayed imbedded in there communities and families caring for the children this was there domain. The men left the nest each day to fetch food and or war against invaders who might other wise claim or destroy there land, women and children …….
Our human reality is a progressive one…..constantly refining our lives and further removing ourselves form the animal world from which we came, we embarked on a quest for a utopian world. We continued to design highly complex societies in which law and order would prevail in an attempt to Protect the society itself and it’s members……As the social arena evolved into being, Men were no longer needed to build a home , protect the land it was on and yield it’s harvest. These basic life necessities where now provided by the social Mecca WE had created……In essence we done put ourselves out of a job!….. as a result we assumed new less potent roles. Many problems arose for the new breed of men which followed. Now lost in this modern social strata looking to redefine manhood itself……hence the invention of Team Sports, and modern body building which are just some of the vehicles in which healthy men seek to display there virility and feel rewarded as they once did feeding there families……Still another breed of men choose a more unhealthy means to express there manliness….hence Street Gangs, Rock Stars, Porn addicts, Womanizers and the like……
While Women has endured a steady rise to power Men have been socially castrated……And no one seems to care …..Women are not privy to a Mans reality, his suffering and loss. This is because Men have not exhibited the self awareness needed to get the message out…..self awareness is by definition a feminine trait that Men in the past have had little need for….. But as the hammer of time forges on Men are now coming into there own in this new era and are learning to express themselves……The presence of this thread is a prime example of Man’s awareness of his dissatisfaction with the inequalities which now exist between Men and Women……As time goes on we can only hope that there will be a natural solution to all the power struggles that exist between the sexes….Perhaps our Children will show us the way……but as far as I can tell as long as Women don’t need a Man to live ….and Men continue to be dependant on Women for sexual satisfaction Men will always be at the beck and call of a Women……Just remember ….it was not always this way, there was a time when Women respected and needed Men just to live……and now the table has turned…..and the Women are in power…..only pointing to a need for Men to become sexually liberated…… It is hard for me to conceive a sexually repressed Christian based world moving in that direction…..But I see big changes on the horizon for Men and there roles in society sexually……Already the number of Homosexuals in our society has risen to astounding numbers…..and I am sure the number of closet Bi Sexual and Homosexual Men is probably 20 X that…….If Women keep pushing the envelope with there power over Men sexually they’ll simply have to fight amongst themselves for the few Men willing to be in Heterosexual relationships……Nature has a way of dealing with shifts in power……So like the old saying goes …"Be careful of what you ask for in life…..You just might get it”………….and then have to pray for its removal!
