Calling my dialog "whining" is exactly what I'm talking about.... you
reify patriarchy by equating emotion with childlikeness and thus passive
femininity.. the same passive femininity that was the "dark side" of the
duality in Greek culture where both women and male children were regarded
in much the same light and the oppression and subjegation they endured
were intricately linked as if in a web. It is important for us to be
conscient of what we are saying when we talk to people don't you think or
else how will we get anything done? I'm not whining... I'm expressing
what is my reality and by belittling me in this way you accomplish the
opposite of your intention.
