I'm sorry guys... as much as I just ought to stop and count my
blessings......It's hard for me to stand by and have men tell me how
much better it is now for women.
    
As a woman, I am concerned daily with the lack of equality, not only
in the schools, but in society in general. Our world needs a WAKE UP CALL to
the dire straights it's in relative to inequity, emotional dysfunction and
corporate control of what it is to be a human in the modern age. Daily,
oppression lives a nasty life towards all oppressed people.
    
It is these moments which are being stolen away....regardless of
gains made, which are to be seen as vitally important to the building of healthy
tomorrows. The ill affects of such oppression and suppression cannot be
underestimated. All around the world, growing girls lack their identities,their
voices and their power, while the whole world losses because of this fact.
    
Female energy, yin chi, is the singular force of human dignity and
integrity which must be held above us and called into the light of leadership
beyond the Domination Paradigm which aggressively controls us all. It is
basically not so much a "fight" as it is a NEED to develop
emotional intelligence and affective cognition.
