Comments on: The Word "Husband" http://theartofmanhood.com/blog/2009/12/the-word-husband/ Passion, Presence and Purpose for the Modern Warrior Sat, 02 Oct 2010 16:42:33 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 By: Jeff Navarro http://theartofmanhood.com/blog/2009/12/the-word-husband/comment-page-1/#comment-6 Jeff Navarro Fri, 07 May 2010 01:03:55 +0000 http://theartofmanhood.com/blog/?p=18#comment-6 Hi Rosie, Thanks so much for reading! I agree with you, that modern culture has, in many ways, programmed women to avoid like the plague anything that smacks of subservience or weakness. I believe that's just one manifestation...one symptom...of the de-polarization of masculinity and femininity. Women have been oppressed in so many ways and for so long, that it's refreshing and empowering for them to say "I can do anything a man can do!" Certainly, as human beings, we <em>all</em> have unlimited potential. However, as men and women, we have unique things to offer <em>each other</em>. Realizing that can only come when mutually respecting each other on the level of human beings is achieved. So...that brings me to your question...what do women have to offer men? The answer to that is something I've been thinking about and clarifying for myself a <em>lot</em> lately, and I'll be posting about it soon! Hi Rosie,

Thanks so much for reading!

I agree with you, that modern culture has, in many ways, programmed women to avoid like the plague anything that smacks of subservience or weakness. I believe that’s just one manifestation…one symptom…of the de-polarization of masculinity and femininity.

Women have been oppressed in so many ways and for so long, that it’s refreshing and empowering for them to say “I can do anything a man can do!” Certainly, as human beings, we all have unlimited potential. However, as men and women, we have unique things to offer each other. Realizing that can only come when mutually respecting each other on the level of human beings is achieved.

So…that brings me to your question…what do women have to offer men? The answer to that is something I’ve been thinking about and clarifying for myself a lot lately, and I’ll be posting about it soon!

I like what you said about husbanding. I think there are many women out there who don't want to be 'husbanded' cos they see it a sign of weakness. I am husbanded well NOW. We have been together 22 years (unmarried) but, in your terms have a husband (and wife?) relationship. He supported me far more strongly than I supported myself initially, to get into art. So, I'd be interested to know what your take is on the 'wifely" role? What do you think it might be and could it grow in a man?
