How We Can Win Our Culture

There were questions raised recently about womens', and especially feminists' role in ruining the traditional Western culture. I believe there is a good deal of misunderstanding among general public, as well as among feminists themselves, what they really want. I will try to look at the claims of feminists from a different point.

To start with, let's consider the famous feminists' thesis that all men are rapists. Since rape is intolerable, we are stuck in the situation which is impossible to resolve. What can we men do if we have such an inherited problem? Disappear? However, if we only dare to assume, that rape may be, in some fantasy, desirable, we get a clue. By saying that all men are rapists, feminists hint at that they want to be raped.

Assume that feminists as women who cannot have normal relations with men for some psychological reasons. But that does not mean that they don't want those relations. That means, that they actually desire to be forced into such relations. I spoke with several lonely women, and all said that what they really wanted was a procedure by which they could get married without active participation from their own. In other words, they would prefer a traditional patriarchal way of marriage over modern freedom. If we broadly define 'rape' as some sort of enforcement, the initial hypothesis seems justified. Feminists usually say regarding rapes: It’s about the “patriarchy”. That's it.

Recently I had a correspondence with a lady who called herself a feminist. Trying to find some sense in her seemingly illogical accusations of Men and Capitalism, it came to me that what she really wanted, was security. She wanted to have a reliable marriage, many children and financial protection, and she wanted the state to actually enforce all that. Of course, she wanted equality too, but... And if, only if a man deserts her she want financial support from the state and possibility to make abortion. But first of all, she wanted security. So my advice would be, if we want to win the hearts and minds of our women, we must drop that "freedom is a must" paradigm, and admit that what many women need is not equality but traditional and safe marriage. And if we can provide that option for them, and prove that they are safer with us than with others, they will inevitably choose us.

"A nation is never conquered until the hearts of its women are on the ground" - said some wise Native American. If our women can trust us, they will love us. And we will win our culture.
