I wrote that I trusted in the female wisdom, and that women haven't taken revenge. But that isn't all. We have directed our aggression and anger against ourselves and have identified ourselves with the aggressor. The destructivity of this shows itself in self hate, in guilt complexes, in depression, and in always putting oneself on the back seat.

The feminist movement of the last century was fired by anger and the attempt to become a better man. At the end of the 19th century there were 'scientific' debates on whether women could be considered as being human, and still today the Arabs say: "I have two children and one girl" and so on. Women had been dehumanised and so to be human was equalled to being a man. There was no female concept, and all feminine qualities, like surrender, empathy, making a home, caring for other, having children, being compassionate, being helpful, were looked down on, especially by feminists.

Réka posted a video of her Yoga teacher who said that going inside was the biggest revolution. I agree completely and want to add that loving ourselves, our bodies, respecting ourselves, putting ourselves first (yes! I mean it!) is not only revolutionary but of highest importance for humanity and its evolution. Now!

With love,
