- tle harder on our side. Telling
- people who've grown up in a patriarchal society to celebrate all values
- won't work; their minds are still locked in. You have to smack them
- over the head with alternative possiblities. You have two millenia's
- worth of garbage to haul out -- it must be EXPLICITLY STATED that women
- have been devalued and that women and the values that have been
- associated with them must be paid more attention.

- Ultimately, I want more than just
- "attention" paid; I want the entire
- culture oriented around those values.
- I too, could use "matristic", or one
- of Daniel's alternative terms, but
- they aren't as emotionally appealing
- to me.
-
- People may misunderstand what it is
- I mean when I advocate matriarchy,
- but hopefully, they'll just ask me.
