Because some readers of “7000 years” asked me for the references concerning the animal and human behavior I mentioned in this book, I’ve selected from the references sections the most important of them. In fact, the ideas and data in this book are based on much more sources. Dawkins, Richard, The Selfish Gene, Oxford University […]
Patriarchal words and translations
There are much more examples like that. The patriarchal vision on women, their actions, oriented the translations from old languages. Even Virgin Mary was a young woman, not a virgin. But patriarchy likes virginity in women. In Islam there are a lot of legends about other cases of immaculate conceptions, and not only about prophets […]
Honor killings and patriarchy
In patriarchal societies, women are a valuable merchandise (maybe the most valuable). They are raised by a family in order to be sold to another. And if a woman breaks this deal by falling in love with a man (or woman) and going with this person, she cancels an important contract between families the society […]
Necrophilia, patriarchy and BDSM
Andrea Dworkin, in “Woman hating”, treats the subject of necrophilia as an important trait of patriarchal sexual fantasies. Vivid women are not sexy, they are annoying, boring, stressful. A woman should shut up and listen or shut up and become a sexual object. Dworkin makes an analysis of some fairy tales and comes to the […]
The patriarchal deal
This is what patriarchy sells to women: protection. Women do anything, but men are very important, because they defend them. The fear against other men keep men in families, in fact keep women working for them. What we see in the movie below happens in Asia, not only in Africa and other cultures. This picture […]
A new feminist theory of culture
It is surprising how women can believe the nonsenses of evolutionary psychology and the nonsenses of the great misogynist named Charles Darwin. According to Darwin’s ideas, men created culture, even language and music in order to be attractive to women, who chose the best of them. The myths created by these misogynists reflects their vision, not nature. […]
What is worse: marriage or prostitution?
Radical feminism and the 2nd wave feminism consider prostitution and pornography (prostitution registered on film, tape or paper) crimes against women. In patriarchy, female sexuality is recommended as submissive, and women have to be submissive all the time, and their sexuality is simply a romantic reflection of their forced submission. Andrea Dworkin and other 2nd wave feminists tried to ban pornography, outlining […]
Patriarchy through the curious, sincere, and intelligent eyes of a former Muslim woman
Contrary to the western legends, Mohammed, the prophet, was a genius, not a mentally disabled man, I think. The western propaganda, many people believe in, says he was illiterate, retarded, with speech problems. He may have been illiterate, with speech disabilities, but certainly, a very intelligent person of his time. I don’t mean he was […]
A white woman as a savior of all women
We are living pretty weird times. We allegedly are crossing the feminism of the third wave, but apparently, it’s a wave that does nothing but washing the other ones. Everything seems to fall apart, to be deconstructed until being demolished or distorted, in the best case. On the other hand, some leftists and the cultural relativism dilute any clear message. Sometimes things really are black and white, no shades of gray. Sometimes you have to make precise spectral analyses. So in feminism sometimes things are clear. And painful. Patriarchy exists, destroy lives, minds, in every moment, even now. Women are taught to be slaves, to adapt as slaves, with more […]
Why human rights are not enough? Why do we need feminism?
There are people, especially males, who claim the concept of human rights is enough in order to protect women’s rights. If we apply these rights, women will be OK. Beating, rapping discriminating at the workplace, street harassment is against human rights. Yes, it’s true. But we should take into account that all the public institutions […]
