Roles are clouded,
partners have problems with communication and performance of duty
Women try to behave as men,
losing their identity, they are not at fault
Many centuries of repression,
they have been held back in order to preserve mans' ever waning ego
Males using force, trying to cease their partners' ever growing desire
to break free of their bondage
Battered feeling trapped the women continue to strive,
if the men will not respect them as partners they will force the issue
As years pass many of them become more and more like men,
competing in a world where only men trifled
If they were not treated equally as women,
they would find other ways of gaining equality
Others still cower under the suppression of the men
being victims of the maleslow self esteem
Defeated they have lost their will for the struggle
and have become care givers having no identity
The male has problems that lay deep within,
they are taught not to show emotions
In this manner they themselves have become suppressed,
their ailment worsening as time passes
They react to the female rebellion, they do not know any better,
it goes against their training
Their self esteem being low,
they use domination to boost their fragile ego
The males are experiencing crisis, roles are changing,
they can either look within themselves or keep on fighting it
Those that want to change discover a part of themselves where they are vulnerable,
yet there is much strength also
New sensations help many along there path to recovery,
however many more will give in to fear
Man must discover his own role,
before he will find a partner that is secure in theirs'
Once inner growth has occurred the men become awe-inspiring,
powerful and regal, yet tender and loving
The women are drawn, proud to take their place at their side
as equal partners
They will find that neither sex is superior,
just different, neither threatens the other
Each will have their role to play in lifes' passage,
none being more important than the other
Women will rediscover their purpose,
they will be given the space they need to grow
And both of them as partners can take their place
in Gods purpose and know contentment
