Bita, your suposition only works if you see power coming from an orgasm.... I see power comming from the barrel of a gun or blade of a sword.... Seeing that half of my mercinary teams were women and strong women at that I'd say that levels the playing field. Yet whilst the modern woman may well be able to build homes and run businesses, I'd question how many of them could survive in the wilderness and thrive. The way civilization is headed I'd hope to be aroiund when it screws its up totally and we revert to a tribal or feudal world (Long as I am a feudal as I was born to be and never a serf) I can not just survive but thrive in such conditions.
Interesting that you would question the ability of women to survive and thrive in the wilderness since we've been doing it since the dawn of man. Woman do what they have to do and as a weak woman will die in that wilderness, so will a weak man. I doubt the average man will be able to thrive better than myself if left to fend for themselves in the wilderness. I can start a fire, know how to purify water, can tie, virtually, every knot known to man, have a background in carpentry to build my shelter, can hunt, kill and prepare my food, I'm very healthy with no allergies, in good shape... strong like bull and have a longer expected lifespan, statistically speaking, than a man the same age as myself. I have tilled soil, worked on a 25K acre cattle ranch/farm, can ride a horse, bareback if needed. I know crop rotation, seeding, and what salt does to the Earth. Cavemen are gone, women are educated. The old days are no longer. A man may be physically stronger ::and I know many who are NOT:: and they may be quicker ::and again, I know many who are not:: but that doesn't make them supreme because there is nothing they can do which I can't.. and there are several things which I can do and they cannot.
As for power, it comes from many places, orgasms included for how is an orgasm achieved except from the most powerful tool, the human brain? I can 'think' myself an orgasm, that's a pretty powerful thing, but make no mistake it's the sole ability of my brain. It's just a perk. If you get the chance to read The Science of the Sexes, you'll see that when a woman is pregnant and the fetus is to be a male, so much testosterone is dumped into that little body that it severs, literal burns the neurons, in vitro, which connect the hemisphere's. I didn't make that up. The male brain is less efficient than the females. So, whilst tongue in cheek, the supreme power comes from the human brain, not the end of a sword. Since a woman has a layout which is more efficient, has more neurological connections, she must reign supreme.
I have absolutely no doubt I could both survive and thrive.. and more than that, I'm willing to share what I know with other women and help them survive and thrive as well and in turn, they too, will share with me, as we each utilize those skills, talents and abilities which we do best.
Now, all that said, if you believe that supremacy stems from the ability to survive in the wilderness, and the need for such has long since past, perhaps never to be seen again in your lifetime ::or your grandchildren's:: would you agree that by your criteria, that men do not reign supreme as the basis for that criteria does not hold true in modern times?
