Malcolm X once stated that the black community\u2019s greatest enemy was the white liberal.\u00a0 If he were living now, perhaps that perspective would change and narrow to white liberal women.\u00a0 Many of us recognize that white, educated, liberal women are becoming the enemy of any remnants of traditional culture.<\/p>\n
Over the last few years, these white, guilt-ridden women have become a force for promoting identity politics and the demonization of men.\u00a0 One does not see this more than in the professions of human behavior and mental health.\u00a0 As an East coast therapist, I have heard stories about microaggressions concerning race, sexual orientation, and sexual identity.\u00a0 For those of us who do not subscribe to this increasingly fanatical, Orwellian creed, we either self-isolate or are ostracized.\u00a0 The silence of dissenting voices is the mandate of these Left-wing females.<\/p>\n
A couple of years ago, I ended a friendship that was increasingly eroding over politics.\u00a0 This person, a therapist also and a once-upon-a-time uninformed moderate, would deny political discourse was the reason.\u00a0 Still, on a fateful day, she asked how I could have voted for Donald Trump being the moral person she thought I was.\u00a0 As the conversation unfolded, she emphasized to me that she was now quite knowledgeable about the political landscape.\u00a0 When I asked her thoughts about Kanye West\u2019s support for Donald Trump, it was evident she had not heard about this topic.\u00a0 She looked equally dumbfounded when I questioned if she knew who Valerie Jarrett was.\u00a0 After a frosty exchange about not including me in a gathering that would be dominated by her Democrat friends, we parted ways.\u00a0 Later, I confronted her about taking the moral high ground as she voted for a woman whose moral scruples had a great deal to be desired.\u00a0 Also, I wondered about her holier-than-thou attitude as she joined the Left\u2019s chorus in denying Barack Obama\u2019s follies.<\/p>\n
Since that time, most who are within the behavioral health disciplines have increasingly embraced the extreme language of the left.\u00a0 Although other enlightened diversity experts promote the narrative, female therapists are at the forefront signing their names with preferred nouns and pronouns such as She\/Her\/Her.\u00a0 Now, there are at least thirty-seven pronouns.\u00a0 Another friend of mine, a therapist who worked on a college campus, became so confused with some of the pronouns that she asked a student if she could just refer to them by name.\u00a0 Begrudgingly, the student said yes.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Therapists now often identify clients as cis-gendered, those who maintain their \u201dassigned\u201d birth sex.\u00a0 Straight, or gay, no longer suffices.\u00a0 Most therapists are women and are driving the narrative.\u00a0 A few months ago, one therapist courageously questioned the idea of people having casual sex in such realms as polyamory.\u00a0 She indicated how some viewed these behaviors as hurting them.\u00a0 Unfortunately, this therapist received pushback on this old-fashioned and judgmental position.\u00a0 At some point, she caved, thanking another therapist for enlightening her.<\/p>\n
Mental health professionals are less shy about expressing their social justice ideals, but these activities extend to other disciplines of education.\u00a0 Many well-degreed females from all professions are joining together as fair and just sisters to upend society.\u00a0 These purportedly illuminated women emphasize the significance of differences, but only involving those in agreement \u00a0with their standards.\u00a0 How about those between men and women?\u00a0 We can\u2019t say, never mind do.\u00a0 These so-called oppressed women often blame white men for the patriarchy inflicted on them.\u00a0 As in\u00a0other cultures, women often set the tone for societal norms.\u00a0 We could say that about societies where the women carry out Female Genital Mutilation to advanced countries where women insist they are no different than men.<\/p>\n
I have seen several older and young women who have acknowledged the emptiness of the hook-up culture, which arose out of being liberated to \u201cbe like men.\u201d Although there was no name for it, one of my long-term, over sixty-year clients acknowledged the pressure of the 1970s and 80s concerning these issues.\u00a0 Even back then, such behavior for women went from being pinned with a scarlet letter to being rewarded with a badge of honor.\u00a0 Did most of these women feel good about themselves?\u00a0 The answer to that is a resounding \u201cno.\u201d\u00a0 Will they admit that publicly?\u00a0 No, again.<\/p>\n
More recently, I heard two different examples of this kind of behavior.\u00a0 One of my lovely thirty-year-olds recently became engaged.\u00a0 This client felt a need to discuss some residual shame about chaotic behavior from long ago.\u00a0 These random activities occurred during a drunken haze.\u00a0 I reminded this woman that the culture had set the tone, but more importantly, the behavior had ceased.\u00a0 I also emphasized that like it or not, men and women are different, to which she agreed.<\/p>\n
A few months before COVID, a delightful client, a college student, was going out on the town with her friends.\u00a0 She told me they would probably drink and hook up.\u00a0 When I asked what the hook-up meant, kissing or more, including sex, she said rather sheepishly that it depends, because it is part of the culture.\u00a0 This Gen-Zer is a composite of many young women who succumb to this peer pressure.\u00a0 Most of them anesthetize themselves to endure the lack of connection with a stranger disguised as an intimate coming together.<\/p>\n
White, educated, liberal females are not retreating from their collective mantra any time soon.\u00a0 Under the guise of “white male oppression,” they continue to set the stage for increased moral relativism and cultural rot for all.\u00a0 These mama bears are allowing their children to be indoctrinated by this feel-good because it is a feel-right portrayal of history, literature, art, science, and politics.\u00a0 Until these formally educated women become truly enlightened about their vast freedom and power, society will continue to slide into a slow but steady decay.\u00a0 Ladies, wake up.\u00a0 It is time to get genuinely \u201dwoke.\u201d<\/p>\n
