THE HISTORY OF SEXUAL IMBALANCE
In the beginning, there was one. Balanced yin and yang. The decision was made to individuate these two vectors and house each in its own vehicle. and As in all games, one side ascended and the other declined. The ascendant was the feminine. With the advanced knowledge of science, it was established that the physical could continue without the need for the male energy. Artificial insemination would replace the need of the male for the furtherance of the race. The male could be kept around for amusement if necessary but he was not needed. Great civilizations arose of Amazon women. The battle of the sexes was won and the male became as significant as the male Black Widow spider to be eaten or discarded after his y chromosome was extracted. If there was any need it was to replenish the sperm banks from time to time and thus was tolerated. As in all games of Yin and Yang, like the game of Go, cabals, and conspiracies grew in the dark corners and power shifted to the Yang element. The Yin had to be suppressed. Patriarchies developed. The feminine was suppressed. Murder and mayhem were dealt with the Amazons. Every center of feminine power was crushed. This suppression has continued throughout most remembered history. Contemporary Religions or codified agreements of action are a testament to the male ascendancy.
We are seeing with the near extinction of the species with potential nuclear war and contemporary war, the rise of Corporations, international and local violence, the potential enslavement of the rest of the planet by small groups that the male dominating energy is not the answer either. We are in a new age. The species has gone through adolescence. Each energy has had a chance to dominate and both have proven to be unworkable.
What near extinction are we seeing? 7.5 billion humans is hardly near extinction.
You aren't in any new age, there just hasn't been a war for 50 years. Men will be suddenly back in fashion when war returns.
The biosphere of planet Earth is undergoing it's sixth extinction event, this being a time when biodiversity decreases to such a level that the climax ecosystem dynamics of stability are no longer in equilibrium. Humans becoming extinct altogether, unless through an antibiotic resistant, genetically modified superbug type scenario, I find unlikely, but then you don't need to travel very far back in time to find a time when other closely related Hominids went extinct (Neanderthals etc.).
Also, there has always been a war going on somewhere for at least the last 2000 years. And furthermore, we are entering a new astrological age as the solar system orbits the galactic core. Get with the program!
Right on Martain 25. This is a new age. Water dissolves stuff and mixes their particles. Balance, yin and yang.
Hi upgrade(41). I don't see a near extinction. Not having been there and never having read a book on the subject I had to take a look at my filtered access to the Akashic record and that is what I saw. Mythology and some archeological records report to us that very early on society was matriarchal. This era is clearly patriarchal. something did happen and what I wrote is my version. Remember what Mark Twain said; "history is a Mississippi of lies".
Hi again[@]upgrade (41), Your point is well taken on the population but we have been in war pretty much continually? Korea, Viet Nam, Afganistan, middle east. Men are not out of fashion, in fact, my point was that we are still in the midst of male domination.
There is a purpose for each of the male and female energies. Each compliments the other. Balance is what works best on the individual level and should give us the best wisdom when we can achieve it in the future. That would be a more adult period of civilization. Don't ya think?

I believe in equal treatment for men and woman and all genders outside and in between. We need more women in power that much is certain!
Yep!
