So as not to hijack another thread, I'm going off on my rantangent here.
In the other thread I posted a 1960s wt quote about women having puny brains, being incapable of leading or making decisions, being ruled by their menstrual constitution and weak musculature. Blahbety blah blah blah. If you want more gems, just google "watchtower quotes women" and read to your heart's content.
I got to thinking, who is this broad they quoted as a source, Dr. Marie N. Robinson? WTH?
(The URL for the following link is purely coincidental--I have nothing to do with that site!)
Sexual Frigidity Is Caused by Feminism
Quotes from this critique: (ROFL)
"her sexual satisfaction and spiritual fecundity depend on self-surrender."
They "tend to lose their essential womanliness if they stay [in the marketplace] by choice."
For a profound vaginal orgasm, Robinson writes, "the excitement comes from the act of surrender. There is a tremendous surging physical ecstasy in the yielding itself, in the feeling of being the passive instrument of another person..."
Robinson regards the clitoris as a masculine vestige.
The conclusion of the critique is quite the treat. Posted about a month ago, critiquing a book that's 40 years old and by all accounts totally obsolute and ridiculous? Again ROFL. He'd make a good dub!
CONCLUSION
"I encourage women to have careers if they want to, but if they also want marriage and family, career should be secondary. Naturally men and women should be treated equally in the work force.
Robinson's book confirms my thesis that woman wants love and man wants power. Heterosexual marriage is based on the exchange of female worldly power for male love.
A woman who seeks power is neutering herself and her husband. She will not receive love from a man whose identity is based on power. She cannot love someone she competes with. He cannot love her. This is the dilemma of feminists today.
As Marie N. Robinson confirms, woman loves by entrusting her power to the right man, her husband. He uses it to champion her interests. Thus she both empowers him and channels male power in a socially constructive direction. A woman's real power is love, the power of self surrender.
So anyways, the kind of authorities quoted in wt publications are either total whack jobs themselves, or they are normal and wt misquotes them.
