Venus Envy

A recent article I read regarding gender transitional situations put forth the idea that more males are wanting to be more female than at any other time in history. I did a double take on that last bit, considering that not many centuries ago, men wore lace and frills, make-up, wigs and high heels, silks and satins to flounce about royal courts. Today men are sneaking in facials and elaborate clothing and hair styles as well as scent, and I think that's wonderful. It says that freedom of sexual preference and expression contributes to a better world, one that has no emotional brick walls. The adage that men love women who are pink and pretty is fading into the past, and women are stepping up to the plate to help bat those ideas into left field and beyond. In doing so, women are also saying, move over fella, I am up to bat next. They are making it clear that dinosaur men who regard women as toys, are no longer going to be able to hold that view safely even among their peers. More women are out in the working world as single parents and taking over top positions very successfully. Most intelligent males in the work force are also on-side when it comes to seeing gender as no requirement, but that all adult human beings, male and female, must enjoy equivalent rights and privileges without prejudice. Some societies are slower than others to understand the times, but change is inevitable and the future is coming on at an almost violent rate. Seeing the disappearance of gender inequality, makes a more accepting climate for progress, one that eliminates that high hurdle to conquer.  Choice is everywhere for both sexes, and women who are not accepted as equals, those who are pregnant with all of their natural abilities to provide care and progressive nurturing are just waiting to birth their talents and rights and enter into formerly male dominated spheres. Those who can't accept this fact are those who lag behind in society. In the animal world where females are the hunters they cue us to see the useful natural drive that females have to protect and nurture that is unique in women but that is also available to men should they wish to grasp it. It seems, now, that more males are becoming wise enough to want to do so. I congratulate them.
