The Power of a woman
"Stressful times result in hardier boys "
Staff and wire reports and I copied from my Yahoo Home Page. The report says:
"Male children born in stressful times enjoy an advantage their whole lives, living longer, on average, than males born in times of peace and prosperity, researchers find.
Based on an analysis of a database of birth, life and death information dating back to 1751, the study adds to earlier findings that pregnant women are more likely to miscarry male fetises than females fetises during times of stress.
Together, the research indicates that the tendency to miscarry males has a culling effect which makes populations "hardier because they lost the weak ones earlier," says Ralph Catalano of the School of Public Health at the University of California, Berkeley.
The findings, reported in this week's Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, solidify what biologists have long known all along: that males are the weaker sex, Catalano said. "Compared to men, (women) are biological fortresses."
So all along it is as I thought. Women are the powerhouses.
And there are good and bad years for children- especially males. Just like wine. As a teacher, I witnessed this phenomenon for years, as we remarked from one teacher to another about an incoming class. And it's women who have the upper hand and control it all.
Why and when then did women surrender their power to men? Was it in the nuturing and gathering stage? Did man flatter her into thinking that she alone could care for the household and that he would better serve the family unit by being spokesman and control for them? (Maybe the bow and arrow had something to do with it?) And then did man believe his own thoughts, and truly think that he was superior to his mate? Or was he fearful of his status and standing in the cave? Was that when he was able to convince woman to take the second place? And why has it continued from caveman times to the 21st century workplace?
Why do many men still bristle at a mate's suggestion, even when it's logical and good? I guess it's the male who doesn't truly understand the the gains that come from working as a team. And why do some intelligent women turn into needy, subservient beings in the company of preening males? Is it due to ages of conditioning or a result of recent elementary school experiences? Is it simply so terrifying for children to be the last one chosen for the classroom team? Conform or be excluded. Does that mark our behavior of female submission and male bravado throughout our lives?
Forget about one sex being more dominant, how about equal footing for the stronger and truly controlling sex? Isn't it time?
