Women

I've noticed this for 30 years, and I'm going to comment upon it right now for the first time...



Women, in general, are not "well-suited" to the Work of Thinking. They are, however, extremely well suited, to the Work of Feeling. Thinking and Feeling are the two realms of existence which lower forms of Life (that we know about - animals, plants, etc.) are incapable of experiencing to the degree possible by a Human (with a capital H).



I've subscribed to email lists and usenet for 12 years. In general, they are populated 90% or more by men, and participated 90% or more by men. Women have much less patience dealing with the vagaries of thought than men. That's why technology and science are, primarily, the domains of men. Technology and science are, first and foremost, the ordinary work of thinking.



On most lists, one will be very hard-pressed to even name more than one or two women posters - of course there are exceptions.



Women need to overcome their chief feature of lazymind, and start thinking more. And Men need to overcome their chief feature of crazymind, and start thinking better.



There are two halves to the brain - the left and right hemispheres. These are the male and female parts of the brain - speech on the left, emotions on the right. Everybody needs to develop their rightbrain, and there's a way to do this by concentrating on the left. Believe it or not.



ps- Think, marriage, union, and the present-day flak being generated over "same sex" unions...



pps- Are you thinking???
