ORIGINAL: Lordandmaster Yanno...if you find that readers constantly misunderstand what you're saying, one of the first things you have to ask yourself is whether you're expressing yourself in a misleading way. The second thing you have to ask yourself is whether everyone has a powerful subconscious agenda to misunderstand you. Possibly because they have been indoctrinated all their lives, every day and in every way, to believe that men are dominant over women due to some sort of superiority granted them by nature. No one escapes the influence of the culture in which he/she was raised without conscious effort. Over and over in these threads, I see people declaring that female supremacy is "scary", "bad", "wrong", etc.. Yet not once has one single person been able to connect the notion of female supremacy to actual, documented harm that has ever been done to a non-consenting person. When I want to declare that male supremacy is "scary", I can connect the patriarchal cultures of this planet to billions of lives lost, rapes, enslavement, and mutilation done to non-consenting women and girl children. When I want to declare that white supremacy is "scary", I can look to the history of slavery and the Holocaust. When I want to declare that any given religion's view of its own supremacy is scary, I have only to look at the way they have treated people of other religious faiths. Ditto with people who believe they belong to some particular "race". But, exactly what harm has any traditionally matriarchal society done to ANYONE lately? And exactly what harm has any female supremacist organization done, to anyone who wasn't turned on by it? I am sorry if people find the femme-supreme masturbatory material offered on the internet "offensive", but I think that at some point you really have to ask yourself why, if you are offended by someone else's sexual practices or lifestyle, you cannot just leave them alone. Female supremacy is not scary. What's scary is how terrified everyone is of female supremacy. And personally, after 10,000 years of partriarchal horseshit, I think it's about time that the human race learned to switch. --M
