The Gap:

We were born into a society that has been deficient in the feminine virtues. Our society stresses the aggressive, the impulsive, the competitive, the boorish, the external, and – most ominously of all, the equal – over what is passive, reserved, cooperative, sophisticated, internal, and irregular. Truly feminine societies, before they were Americanised, have all ways intuited this imbalance, for the second set of traits was woven intimately into the fabric of their cultures. Most ironic of course is the term “feminism”, for if any thing is alien to femininity it is this new form of patriarchal dogma. I mean: These chicks honestly presuppose that society has been patriarchal since the DAWN OF TIME, and yet they expect to attain “equality” (whatever that insane abstraction means on a case-by-case basis) within only two hundred years. How long did it take the earth to form? For Pangaea to split? For thumbs to appear? The only woman I’ve known to have any sense on the matter was M.L. von Franz, who pointed out that our society is much too hectic for the female body. Sure: women have given men a literal run for their money. But is this a token of bragging? Jungians like von Franz all ways knew that Nature would have her say. So if the statistics carry any merit whatsoever they simply reflect the bitter fact that Women Are Underperforming. And that is nothing new; von Franz intuited that women on average are more feminine than men, possessing more feminine traits both physically and psychically, and she made this proclamation towards the end of a very long career. So unless the life-long efforts of a female simply don’t MATTER, and we are much more concerned with filling our pockets with welfare checks under the PRESUPPOSITION that women are putting in “equal work” to men, rather than getting their asses kicked by the system that they ought not to have joined in the first place, then von Franz can be rendered a dinosaur. But yet even THAT reflects our one-sidedness: our tendency to prefer what is young and new to what is old. There is nothing “liberal” about feminism; the doctrine of equal work and equal pay is totally alien to the Marxist notion of giving according to need and performing according to the LIMITS OF ONE’S NATURAL ABILITY. There is no politically correct way of putting it: either the wage gap was invented to breed Fascism, alongside so many other cruel devices, or it is the long-awaited scientific evidence that women CANNOT perform in a male-dominated world, and that only by REFUSING to perform, by becoming feminine again, can they hope to restore balance TO this world. The next time a young girl complains about getting paid seventy-seven cents per dollar, give her a quarter, and tell her she can keep the two cents. She’s a penny-pincher anyhow. And if she doesn’t have the patience to start saving up every quarter that she feels entitled to, then let her continue to wait for the day that men and women are “equal” in whatever way she decides to define it. I guarantee you: it shall take her MUCH longer.
