Yes this is true. Many women don't admit the importance of males to male sons. *BUT* those same women don't admit the importance of *THEMSELVES* to forming the mature male. They figure "Hey I am female, what do I know about being male, I will let the males teach my son how to be a male, and let nature run its course." Anything to abandon responsibility for men. >It's not handing off full responsibility, but saying there's something >that only men can give to each other, or that men can give to their sons >and other boys. This is true, there is something that ONLY men can give men, but there is something that ONLY woman can give men, and *THAT* happens to be more important to the final maturity level of the man than what men give men. Men can not teach men how to take their place in the cosmos AS MEN, only woman can do that. This is because men don't NEED men as much as woman NEED men. It is the proper operation of that need IN woman OF man, and the training BY woman OF man to provide that need, that makes a man mature into BEING ABLE to provide that need, namely a safe environment for women. Women who don't 'need' men, or who resent needing men, or who dramatize jealousy of men through criticism and trying to make women out of men, raise men who can't fulfill that need and create a dangerous environment instead. Men merely teach other men how to become what they have become, monsters in the hands of women who couldn't deal with men. Men who mistreat women or civilization *HATE* WOMEN. Men hate women because women dramatize refusal to operate in man what fulfills their need for men, specifically mother dramatizes this on her son. The son may be guilty of same in a past life AS a woman, particularly if he is vulnerable to this kind of abuse. Homer
