Yes, the man-women topic appears to be pretty hard to understand. We devotees should have an advantage, since we know the science of the spirit soul, and the subtle body, but are we using our advantage? I have read even feminists who think that women and men qualities are created by the parents. That men and women are born "equal". At least we, as devotees, know that is not a fact. That the difference is there from the first breath. > Just consider this: everything in the material world in dualistic: > Harmonisation, not manipulation, is the key to succeed, that means, both, > man and women are of the same importants, but they are playing a different > role. I think that is a very important point. And that there is no way we can create a "better" society, unless we can attain that harmony between the sexes. > > When there is to much focus on man´s power (which is the case since 5000 > years), there will be problems.

The western society is very top heavy in male dominance. But as like time want to correct that, the western women are getting more and more strong and independent, as time is passing, and is chipping away from the male dominance piece by piece. Maybe that will turn over to a completely female dominated society instead, which as you say probably will not be so good either. > > Women are generaly more loving, caring, healing, and expert matajis are > also better than man in transforming negative energies (in conflicts for > example) We are living in the age of quarrel.

The problem is that the men have put out guards against women. If a women is to get entrance into the "man's world" of power-play, she has to follow the rules of men, and adopt male mannerism. She even has to dress in a masculine way to get by. The typical business-women look. I don't think it is fair to blame women from taking on male mannerism. That is the men's fault, not the womens.
