Leia is The Hearth

Leia is The Hearth

That Boy is Our Last Hope...

No. There is Another.

No -  Not Leia : Leia's Son
When She Has One.

A Man's Gotta Do 

What a Man's Gotta Do.

But here’s The Problem. 

This is something My Wife 

has pointed out, too -- She said, 

‘Well, Men are going to have 

to stand up for themselves.’ 

But here’s The Problem --

I know How to Stand Up to A Man 

who’s unfairly trespassing against me. 

And the reason I know that is because 

the parameters for my resistance 

are quite well defined, which is : 

we talk, we argue, we push, 

and then it becomes physical. 

If we move 

beyond the boundaries 

of civil discourse, 

we know what 

the next step is.

That’s forbidden in 

discourse with women. 

And so I don’t think 

that men can control 

Crazy Women. 

Camile Paglia: 
Well I’ve seen - I don’t know if this crosses into other countries - that there’s a certain kind of taunting and teasing that men, that boys do with each other that toughens them, where they don’t take things seriously. 

But a girl’s feelings become extremely hurt if she hears something that’s very tough, sarcastic against her. 

So I do feel that there are profound differences between the sexes in terms of emotions, in terms of communication patterns. 


My Father used to say that he could never follow women’s conversations. 

He said 'Women don’t even finish sentences', 
[ Because they don't have to ]
that women understand immediately 

what the other woman is saying. 


And women tend to be more interested in 

- or have been traditionally 

more interested in - soap operas. 

It’s not just that the women were home without jobs. 

It’s that honestly, I believe that 

soap opera does reflect, does mirror, 

the way women talk to each other. 


These communication patterns have been built up through women - 

The World of Women, which. . . 

It made sense that there was 

a Division of Labor. 

It wasn’t sexism against women that there was a division of labor. 

The men went off to hunt and did the dangerous things. 

The women stayed around The Hearth because you had pregnant women, nursing women, older women, that were cooking and so on.

So I feel that these communication patterns that we’re talking about have been built up over the centuries. 


Men had to toughen 

each other to go out. 


The hunting parties of Native Americans. . .
 They could be gone for two weeks when the temperature was below zero. 

Many of them died. 

[ Just as a lot of the women died in childbirth, too - that's equally dangerous ]

The idea that somehow. . .  


‘Oh, any kind of separation of the sexes, or different spheres of the sexes, is inherently sexist’. . . 

That is wrong. 


Luckily we’ve been, what would you call, invaded by stupid terrorists instead of smart terrorists, because a smart terrorist could do an unbelievable amount of damage in a very short period of time. 

And it’s just God’s good graces 

that that hasn’t happened yet. 


Paglia: 
What will happen is that it’s The Men. . . 

The Men will reconstruct civilization 

while the women cower in the houses 

and have The Men go out and 

do all the dirty work. 

That’s what’s going to happen again. 

Only men will bring 

Civilization back again.
