Flash: Men and women are different!
Posted By Joshua Charles On 09/19/2014 @ 7:41 pm

I really shudder to think (the impossibility aside) what this world would be like without any women in it. How unlivable! How drab! How barbarous! And worst of all, how BORING! You can’t help but read literature, read history, and engage in the rather menial task of opening one’s eyes without recognizing the utter charm women so often bring to human existence in ways men are just not capable of doing.

Unfortunately, the modern tendency is to act as if the sexes are really not substantively different, the consequence of which is to completely shut out the possibilities available to human existence by the concurrent existence of very different but equally important categories of people. If men and women are really not different, then the world has just gotten infinitely less interesting, and the boundary beyond which dullness is the necessary consequence has just been breached. As a result, a whole series of myths have arisen concerning men and women, as well as the history of how they have related.

Imagine my surprise when reading the Founders and discovering that what they actually had to say about women was a lot different than the stereotypes we are so often indoctrinated with today. It is true that men and women were seen as having different roles, a concept that is simply not compatible with our modern ideas. However, women were seen as absolutely essential the health of families, societies and, by extension, the country as a whole.

...........................................................

So those today who are trying to erase the differences between the sexes; those who contend that men and women are basically the same; those who contend that relationships between men and men and women and women are thereby no different than those between men and women, while they do so in the name of “diversity” and “tolerance,” they are actually helping to create a world that is less of both.

But the fact is, men and women are different, and what a far more interesting and nuanced world we live in because of it! The fact that men and women are different leads to the very diversity those who seek to obliterate this distinction claim to be defending, not just because of the differences between the sexes, but because by the combination of those differences through the bonds of marriage and procreation, all the multitudinous variety we see in the world, all the various different types of people and personalities we behold in our daily lives, are made possible.

That is true diversity. If men and women aren’t different, and men and men or women and women are the same as men and women, then the results are simple: less diversity, and no life.

I’ll take more diversity and more life, thanks.

I would add that political correctness has 'feminized' society as a whole in that it has replaced reason with feelings and denigrates the traditional males attributes of physical strength and protectiveness with brutality.
