just because women prefer to do their fighting delicately does not make
us any less dangerous
in fact, if you talk to the homeopathists, they'll tell you that the
less visible, the more subtle, the power, the more deeply its influence
will be felt. after all, who benefits from the system as it is, the so-called
patriarchal system?
surely not the mass of men who are born to work and slave, who are sent
to wars to die, barely aware of the political and economic machinations
that control the hopelessness of their existence
perhaps it's easier to think that kingly chaps, bombasts and industrial
leaders, and oh-so-commanding types are benefiting
but they die like flies, work and worry themselves to death while their
queen bee wives linger at the hair dresser, beat the servants, have sex
with their chauffeurs and their sons
ok, ok, some priviledged wives do the meek queen bee thing of being the
doormat beat-machine so the man can release his tensions before continuing
his berserk viciousness
certainly the stance surrounding the rich woman's victimization has lasted
long enough, the stance of ignoring their plight that is, but there are
many women who benefit greatly in luxury undreamed of by most of the rest
of us
