I mean, there are some men who stay at home with the children while their wives go out to work in high powered jobs...and then, there are still women like myself who were happy to stay at home. In fact, when my son was small, I gave up my career in the Civil Service, in order to educate him myself at home!<br />But, in doing so, I did receive a lot of criticism from other women who believe that a woman's role in life is to go out into the workplace and "beat men at their own game!"<br />In this part of the world, it seems women are expected to be "tough" and "independent"...and I really dislike it. I am a woman. I want to remain intuitive, nurturing and a peacemaker. I guess I am regarded as old fashioned...but, hey, at least I'm not hiding behind all those peculiar, gender-superiority masks!😉<br />Thank you for this wonderful thought provoking post, dearest Baili!😊😊<br /><br />Stay safe and happy my beautiful friend!<br /><br />Lots of love and hugs ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Ygrainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00300519608303898969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4309826816742200785.post-30667524754006907122020-05-06T08:18:45.568-07:002020-05-06T08:18:45.568-07:00Always two sides of the coin.

I think only rain can soften the heat because air conditioning keeps indoors cool but emission from it makes the outside temperature higher.<br /><br />I agree what your son said in the tenth paragraph. Being kind, dominant, or cruel depends on each person not on gender. But men and women are different; we were made so that we make up for each other. In ancient Japan, a woman was the “sun”, could be a ruler, but gradually the society became men-dominant as decision-making was done by men. Thanks for the food for thought.

I also look for evidence. It is great that your son thinks like this. <br /><br />Across every society in every time, on average, women have been less violent then men. It is important to remember that this is an average and cannot be use to determine how individuals might be. But it seems clear that if only women were around, they would be less violent. Of course, there would still be violence. <br /><br />Stay safe!
