he doesn't have a hope in hell of actually doing the job wellhe doesn't have a hope in hell of actually doing the job well

 

this is bollocks that a father cannot be a pretty good father, at least compared to a 'mediocre' mother.

 

Astrology (for those who can accept a part of it) underlines this by bringing forth female/mother/motherhood qualities in men and male/father/fatherhood qualitites in females.

 

So a male with bold Cancer birth chart is gonna be pretty good at being a father, while a woman with a bold Capricorn birth chart is gonna have lots of father qualities, and she's gonna be probably less warm and sensitive as a mother than say, a range of other signs.

 

Regarding the objectivity of astrology, Darklight, I cannot accept lessons of objectivity from someone who is of the mentality :

"why can't we just live together"

"why are there inequalities"

 

and the like.

 

Besides, you should have confronted astrology in the appropriate thread, but I remember you believe in the stars, so the smartass comment about the monolithic objectivity of mine got smashed on the monolith. :)

 

If you can though, I urge you to challenge my objectivity using any of my written stuff here.

 

 

If I recall correctly my reply was to your statement where you suggested that another member here should just get over a DV issue

No translation issue, yeah I was being ironic

 

You brought it up, DV, I just said that sexism is usually / probably stemming from butt-hurt males . Some female hurt them sometime and they decided to hate all women.

 

Plus yeah I did not understand your comment "worse justification for DV"  , which is total shit, cause this aint no justification, nothing justifies a man beating his wife, apart from the very nature of humans + social conditioning of a sexist and crypto-misogynistic society. Maybe we can agree on something ? 

 

But for sure, being hurt from a lady in the past, is no justification for no violent act.

Mutant, you made me laugh when you suggested that homosexuality was abnormal and you were against it. I'm coming out (ha) on a limb here to ask why you call yourself mutant if not to celebrate chromosome changes that make people different?

 

I never said I was against it. Not very nice of you. :crux:

 

But yeah I thought it was abnormal AKA man-made, I thought it's simply a kind of neurosis, and in a way it really is!

 

At least you give me credit for doing research and finding out this is 100% natural and pretty widespread too :blush: 

 

So in my mind it's important whether a phenomenon is natural, AKA happens in the wild, compared to a clearly man/civilisation based phenonomenon.

 

But it's not that I am "against" the un-natural, because then I would be against myself communicating through a computer. ALso check comments about my nick.

 

But because I am a naturalist (AKA nature is the law) , it really helps the categorisation of why we do what we do, it really helps explain the behaviour of the human animal, by dividing our acts in instinctive/natural and other types.

 

You're asking why I have the name mutant, then.  Well its not about the natural evolution mutations.

 

The name is coming from my and also other peoples state, but I will explain it for me. Its mutant as a hybrid of the natural and the mechanic, the technology, you name it. Its a hybrid like Robocop, that kind of mutant I mean.

 

I love nature and all natural. And I love synthersizer sounds, electronics, I learn through computers and I am very curious about why is this and why is that and how this functions and shit..

 

So its a concept of bonding between worshipping nature and using lots of technology , and being able to still feel a natural hybrid of this world at the end of the day, where the natural becomes one with the un-natural.

 

Or something like that....

I often find there's not a lot between men and women and it's certainly variable across the ranges,

 

I find there are a lot. but yeah certainly variable.

 

I got some male friends that indeed have strong female quality. My own father too.

 

not the norm though....

 

so, can I see you natal (birth) chart?

Not the norm?  I don't even know what normal is, so I'm not going there.

 

Unfortunately, you can't see my chart as my mum refuses to give my time of birth, just so I can't do one.

 

Would love to have one though...

I'm genuinely not sure if you're just trolling at this point or not, but I'll respond to this anyway in case it was a genuine misunderstanding. A surrogate mother is a woman who physically carries another woman's child in her womb until term and then delivers it. AFAIK, this is not possible for a man to do with today's medical technology, and if it is, it certainly isn't easy.
A wank, I think!

^ ^ ^

lol, sorry yep it seems should have looked up surrogate in the lexicon, sorry for that!

 

 

 

I also want to add that despite the heat, I agree with lots of stuff you're saying. Mainly the anti-pc stuffs. 

 

Whitewind,

 

there's a contradiction in what I say, as there is life actually.

 

I am saying male and female are different animals, with pretty disctinct characteristics, more or less. This is deternimed by the biological realities of gender.

 

On the same time, I am saying a male can bare female traits in his personality and vice versa, which is why some fathers are better "mothers" than some mothers and vice versa.

 

And of course it can get even more complicated.

 

PC and left wing / anarchist  point of views seem to regard the gener roles more or less a society thing.

 

Sure society oppresses us with all kinds of roles, not only related to our gender. But I suggest, many of these "roles" and insticts are biologically determined, so even though I do not underestimate social conditioning, I am saying there still exist strong in us the archetypal gender tendencies.

 

Exceptions only underline the rule, IMO

People who bitch about women not being in high corporate positions, perhaps now need to leave that question alone and start asking different ones.  There are now rules in place to allow women to achieve equality when it comes to men's positions in the workplace, and how they run their lives, but the same rules do not apply to all the things many women seem to achieve regularly and effortlessly but men don't.

 

I aspire to be a stay at home parent, looking after my child more than I work.  I aspire to spend some of my time doing volunteer work, and art, maybe music.  But I need a nice woman to support my decisions, and I haven't found one yet.  Yet a lot of women seem to be able to achieve what I want, so what's going on?

 

Biological determinsim?  Or women choosing?

 

We've had many years of discussion about how women can achieve equality with men, perhaps it's now time to discuss the ways women lead better lives than men and how we can achieve equality with them.  I'll be honest with you, I haven't met many women who are willing to engage with me when I bring this subject up, so perhaps it's up to men to rise up and, metaphorically speaking, "burn our bras" (if anyone can come up with a suitable analogy to this, I'd love to hear it.  "Burn our Tools" perhaps?  LOL).

^^^^^^

awesomely honest post

like I said, its pretty complicated on each occasion, its pretty easy to draw the general lines, but not for a certain case

I dont really know you nor have access to yr chart so... 

home = cancer  , volunteer work = aquarium , art / music is Pisces    , PERHAPS just guessin

none of the three give a male this specific matcho/dominant/opressive mentality , typical of conservative males, on the contrary

 

Note: interesting here is that many males that socially pose as dominant and matcho alpha-males are in reality opressed by more dynamic female personalities at home. Because of this , they might behave nastily to all women. These men are rats , victims of their own gender roles, but at the same time they are the source of the problem : they maintain a sexist mentality out of a neurosis.

 

I like what you're saying about burning our male bras! 

 

I am into it. I like to bring awkward ideas that challenge matcho male mentality when I know there is someone present that has conservative ideas about genders and sexuality, like saying "male bisexuals , lucky bastards, they get to score twice as much than us normal heteros"  Or " I would love to be a bisexual "  or " I think I would be a pretty good homosexual, I might get on better with a male partner than a woman one "

 

because truth is I am rather difficult character in the sense of mating and staying together.

 

and stuff like this.

 

On the other side, when the PC crowd is involved, and because I really feel hetero and male inside, I also love to underline the differences between sexes, just to tease the PC's into my thoughts.

 

I  am a man of freedom and I like to challenge all dogmas, and the basis for this is everything flows/evolves.  I am a situationist , at least theoretically.

 

I truly believe people should do awkward things breaking the expected roles for the sole reason of fucking up with other people's [read sheep] brains. Doing and saying unexpected things is awesome!

 

I believe men should behave womanly and passively as far as they like to, and woman should become more male, socially stronger and more determined if they feel to.

 

This kind of stuff should scare the shit off conservatives .

 

many already think the male gender is vanishing.

Hey maybe this is good news after all!

 

I got another fucked up idea about gender evolution. I am not so pessimist about males, I rather think we got a third gender or another organ coming.

 

But we stupid humans do not realise it completely. Homosexuality and bisexuality is already the answer to lots of mankinds problems.

 

By realising and intergrating into the collective consciousness of the species that homophobia is only a form of latent homosexuality we might just archieve what we did not through leftish/anrchist/autonomist/libertarian ideologies.

Definitely an issue with a lot of complicated layers. The idea of men staying at home is something most women would find uncomfortable. There is also the issue with shared custody of children when divorce is involved, and the lack of fairness in sharing said time with children.

i luv home

 

home is essential. especially if it's the core of a relatively happy and 'nice' family.

 

but I love to be hunter gatherer and the woman 'plays' traditionally , but I also love to cook for others, and care for the loved one

 

also love to play the shaman/  charlatan / situationist /  philosopher for the team.

 

yes its complicated

 

tonight I am checking out whther sagittarians tend to be more fascist than other signs. Scorpios and Aries were better candidates in my mind, from own speculations

 

perhaps I was wrong.

lol says who? you dont even know your ascedant!

 

dont forget that sagi and scorpio are next to each other, so the fascist elements you might have seen in sagis might be coming from scorpio elements. or Capricorn.

 

people who judge from solar signs of people they know are pretty heavily misinformed about what each sign really is. In fact this is the majority of what people think about signs: bullshit.

 

sagittarians are surely the 'fascists' of speech and ideas,

so enthousiastic talkers they are that they can be fascist only because they exclude less good talkers from any conversation they participate, and this without them realising it. 

 

sagittarius is by far the least oppressive sign of the fire signs. it loves liberty for self and others, so it's definately not in its qualities to be very fascist. he is not a jealous lover and not jealous in general.

 

scorpio is by far the strongest and most oppressive and jealous sign from the water signs. Given water signs are pretty weak, scorpio is considerably more powerful than any of the other two, but he still is very sensitive [good receiver of emotional / body language stuff].

 

despite this, fire signs have very strong and evident egoism, while scorpio is strong by managing to keep the sensitivity hidden . but in the end of the day this prooves a strong ego on scorpio part too

 

another element that supports scoprio with fascist tendencies: people with weaknesses, usually hidden, become awesome fascists. scorpio have a sensitive sensualism that has to be protected from being hurt. Remind you something of fascist mechanics?

 

scorpio as mates can be very oppressive, they can have really difficulty seeing their mistakes and/or admitting them , and they might be too obsessed with sex. Scorpions have a strange relationship with death and horror, and bad aspected scorpios can have really horrific thoughts.

 

things I like in scorpio is that they have strong opinions, they're intelligent, they're good investigators and pretty cood conversationists, as long as you dont insult them, as they can understand and follow up greatly a deep idea and also care about deep / sold ideas.

 

but whereas these are the general characteristics of the two signs compared

 

the bad aspects of Sagi governor, Jupiter, are a walk in the park compared to the bad aspects of Pluto [governor of scorpio]

 

in general, scorpio and pluto, are somewhat related to racism and hatred, especially through the 8th house [house of scorpio] and bad aspecting of Pluto.

 

sagitarian is the happy sign! so fucking optimistic. sagis do not hate not take revenges. sagis are full of lust for life, and they dont want to take it offf anyone else, just don't try to opress them, their freedom is vital.

 

But they can annoy a scorpio to death. Actually they can annoy anyone to death. It only one of the things we do well.

 

Fascism doesn't talk well. Fascism hates well. Well Sagis talk well. We are not good at hating. I had always trouble to dislike people for lots of time, even if they deserved it .

 

Scorpio can hate pretty well, is known to be revengeful and is known to have absolute, strong, fixed ideas.

In fact scorpios are the best at hating : I cannot even think a sign being capable of hating with such passion and [the most important] with duration. 

 

 

Last but not least Scorpio is by far the most revengeful of all signs, and this is really related with racial / fascist hatred.

 

Scorpio also brings the poison.

 

BTW

 

I have 2 quite strong scorpio positions on my chart, so I can talk also as informed explorer of astrology and also a person who feel the two elements/sign simultaneously in the character

 

PS

 

You are not a Scorpio man! Nobody is a scorpio!

 

PS2:

 

scoprio mother is very good and supportive mother, but might be overprotective to her child and even attack an agressor of her child, which is a wrong parental move in general .

 

another element of why  scorpio and not sagi are better candidates for fascism.

 

PS3: x-girlfriend with which we lived together the last 2 years was a Scorpio w sagi  ascedant :P

How is attacking an aggressor of your child a wrong parental move? Sounds kinda natural to me. I believe you could observe that pretty much across the animal kingdom.

god damn scorpios. like I said, always obsessed with sex :P

 

How is attacking an aggressor of your child a wrong parental move?

 

 

I meant another child agressor f.e.  Children should not be overprotected or else = neurosis.

 

overprotection = wrong parental move. scorpions [specially mother scorpio] are supposed to overprotective parents

 

children should face the evil and harshness of our world, they should not live in their little cloud, nor should they feel that their bitchy mother is gonna tear to pieces anyone that dares to mess with her boy for eva.

 

basics.

 

still, overprotection might be better than neglect, at least it feels preferable, for the first years. At least you feel loved not unwanted.

 

I believe you could observe that pretty much across the animal kingdom.

 

yeah

 

the best example of this is when a foreigner lion comes to the lion herd [the male is scared and old, so he flees] , then the new male kills [and some times eats] the lionesses cubs, all cubs, and after half an hour he sits submissively for him to come and fuck her.

 

So revengeful is the mother lion to the killer of her cubs, that she accepts to become the aggressors new mate in just half an hour!!

 

Talk about female mentality! :P

 

I can explain any of the astrological/psychological ideas presented shortly here. Just ask me.

 

And before you bring on naturalistist [physiokratie] arguements, remember I am an avid natural history documentary fan, nature lover, nature enthousiast.

 

nature is the law and taxonomy is the name of the game

 

Venus in Capricorn. Peace
