UNPLUGGED 3 – Modern Women and Female Nature
The ancient Greek Philosopher Plato said we were once conjoined and very happy. But Zeus split us into male and female to punish us for our egoism, leaving us forever looking for our other half.
This soulmate myth has been used to advertise the finding of true love as a matter of destiny, and many novels and movies have been developed from this belief. Overpriced honeymoons, diamond rings, and other excessive accoutrements of romanticism have been developed from this myth, alongside cases of homicide when the expectations of the beloved are violated.
The Bible says in Genesis that God created woman to be a helper of man. Is female nature reflective of this, or was this a romantic fantasy fabricated by patriarchy to subjugate women into submitting to men? If pressure is meant for the shoulders, not for the hips, can hips help the shoulders?
Across many animals, including octopuses, some species of pythons, and the praying mantis, the female kills and often eats the male after mating. When circumstances force the man to depend on his wife for survival for a long time, does the wife support him or discard him?
With all the patriarchal structures removed and the modern woman empowered to do as she wishes, how does she handle relationships and her place in society? Why are women filing for divorce 70-80% of the time, and why does this rate go close to 90% when the woman is educated and has a career? Why does divorce have an appeal for the modern woman? Polled Gen Z women (born 1995-2012) rank marriage as their 7th priority behind travel, a career, buying a house, financial independence, etc. What does this portend for the institution of marriage?
In the face of unfettered female nature, we look at how women handle relationships, leadership, submission, money, and parenting. We delve into how competition anxiety affects fertility and desire in women.
The hot-button topic of single motherhood is tackled unflinchingly alongside the sins of the mothers and how, despite their best intentions, women raise weak men.
This book shines the light on the dark aspects of female nature and modern women in a manner not done before. It gets uncomfortable along the process, but we shrug off the discomfort, clinically excavate the features and lay them bare.
