There is a critical flaw in our world that was born from a twisted view of biologies, and then furthered by (from top to bottom) organisations, papacies, club-houses, and very generally, men. Every moment in our history has been a well-placed blow to women, and set in stone is the nature of our relationships with women.
There is a fine gift that was wrought unto us; we have the ability to be Godlike, to endeavour to create, mold, and shift our surroundings to better suit our needs. Let's remember how incredibly important it is for this to not be a PERSONAL mission, but a collective one.
Perseus held the head of the gorgon Medusa, but imagine if it had been the other way around.
