This is an interesting essay from American Thinker.

The argument made here is that women in the West are in a position that women through history and around the world couldn't even dare dream about in terms of power and wealth and prestige yet young women today blame men for every piece of unhappiness in their lives and complain about "patriarchy" when in fact we are living more in a world of matriarchy, where women have the best of both worlds; they can be bosses and cops and anything else they want while at the same time have special protections that have held over from the old days where women were protected by society. But it isn't enough for them.

I would add that this thinking is essentially what little girls indulge. We all remember the way many little girls acted, running to parents or teachers of anybody else and tattling when things didn't go their way. Not all, surely, but it was the way they operated because little girls were treated with greater care by their parents and by society in general than were boys and essentially they learned early on how to take advantage of the fact (when in truth little girls are about as strong as little boys when very young; it is only later the boys suddenly grow bigger and get stronger physically). That is part of why girls become liberals; they learned not to stand up for themselves, to be strong, but rather to turn to authorities, to the flock, and in this way they found they had power because they could get someone with power to side with them. That thinking is perfect for the conversion of someone to the Left as an adult.

Again, not all. My wife was not like that, nor is Dana's wife. But there always was a certain class of girl you knew in school who WAS that way, who ran to the teacher to tattle on any behavior she deemed improper.

These crazy white women of today are essentially channeling their inner bratty schoolgirl. It's the expression of a basic instinct that women used to learn to repress.

And the flip side is that men are now cowed by such women as they were by the teachers who punished them for something for which the little tattler ratted them out. Men are half the problem and have been for a long time; instead of just saying no and perhaps facing a life of ostricism by these gals men gave in to humor them and they ran roughshod over our whole civilization. Feminism was always powerless without the men playing along. It was like a girl demanding her little brother play house or some other girlie game he didn't want to play.

So now they are "all grown up" but still behaving like the bratty little girls that reside inside of them.

Being an adult means taking responsibility for you life and your actions. There is a sizable chunk of our women who refuse to grow up, a kind of reverse Peter Pan where Peter grew up and Wendy stayed in Neverland. Eternal childhood makes one very unhappy; our purpose on this Earth is to grow and to learn how to be a whole human being. You cannot grow if you expect others to be the source of your happiness and to blame others for your problems.

That's why we see so many times when a woman does something terrible and the feminists immediately spring to her defense, a reflex action by them. A woman who murders her three kids, for instance, should be condemned by everyone yet the feminists instead try to blame the poor husband for her murders. It's staggering. But it's the kind of reasoning we expect from children, and that's what these women essentially are.

Time for Wendy to leave Neverland.
