Hey Maria - apologies for the long gap - the Festive Season intervened.
Two points:
- In response to my comment you stated \'love and religion have their own essence of presence.\' Sounds poetical, and as i\'m not a poet of metaphysics or metaphor, could you explain in more detail?
- A response to L.B. would be good; Perhaps he over complicates sometimes, but he always has valid points to make in there somewhere...
(Sorry L.B. I hope no offense)

more equity than equality, because truth be said in almost all things that truly matter: woman are indeed the \'fairer sex\' (look up its true meaning, before reacting - please),
in the words of Macklemore:
\'No freedom till we\'re (all) equal
damn right I support it!\',
an impassioned write jampacked with reasoned argument and fervent belief: more power to you,
although I\'ll just add: just try to remember, there\'s a few decent samples of the opposite sex that have and continue-to support woman,
let\'s try to ease away from that corrosive \'all hate\' mentality, that\'s becoming a catalyst for those worryingly polarising mindsets within society, find a path that will allow us to fight from the same trenches: I beg...

I too agree with your words Maria, equality should be the norm in all societies.
Being of an age where the patriarchy was strong I have seen it gradually change throughout my life but it is taking such a long time but it will happen and strong people like yourself will make it so.

Hang in there, Maria. The patriarchy exists here, there, everywhere. How to change? Perhaps “the inevitability of gradualness“ will be the process , but how to move that along? Only such as yourself, who brings issues to the fore, seeks political change will achieve it.

You\'ve got my support but sadly it\'ll take a long time to achieve equality globally as we have first to change entire cultures before we start on the day to day issues - speaking of which I was aware of this when I addressed a card Mr and Mrs - the Mr coming first. Not sure how to \'address\' this one 🤔
A fine write thoiugh and keep up the good fight.
