My idea of feminism...

I've read so many perceptions on feminism that are all about supposed female power. But this power is talked about to make women equal to, or sometimes better than, men. It is about equal rights, independence, and acceptance. The old adage of women can do anything men can do backwards and with heels on. Women think other women who choose to stay home and raise their children are weak because of these attitudes. We fought our way out of the home, out of the kitchen, why would we choose to be back there?

I don't see feminism in this way. To me, feminine power isn't about voting, equal pay, power positions, and business meetings. Feminism is about exactly that: the feminine. The possession of a womb. The power of giving life.

Women are the only ones who possess that ability. Men were afraid of that, the mystery of the womb they didn't understand. The place in our bodies that cultivates life. The empty space that gives way to a man's greatest pleasure: our cunts. They didn't understand these spaces. They didn't understand the processes that in our bodies miracously take place month in and out. This unknown, this fear, is what forced us into the home. This is why we had to fight our way out.

Long, long ago; long before our societies were formed; women were in power. We were revered. Our cunts were literally worshipped and we were the leaders. Women taught spiritual matters, which were interwoven with sexual matters. Girl power had a whole new meaning.

I love being a women. I am thankful for a Creator who chose to instill those abilities of the feminine with us. It is this version of feminism I wish more of us could accept. Rather than seek out acceptance in spite of not owning a penis, demand respect because of our cunts. Demand that soctiety and doctors and husbands and fathers revere us BECAUSE we can give life. Whether we choose to use that ability, or for whatever reason that ability is no longer ours, we are feminine. That feminism means the ability is ours, all of ours, innately. And the power that comes with it is inalienable. As long as we don't allow it to be alienated.
