Wow, I really need to make a point to look at people's bios instead of just going by what I read in their comments. I had no idea Andra was a NYT bestselling author! 🤦 Probably a good thing actually or I might have been more intimidated in interacting. Idk we're all equals here I guess (but some animals are more equal than others? 🤷 :) Yes I just tried to kind of identify the pieces and then see how they seemed to fit together. I'm sure there are other ways they fit together too. When you figure out whatever that is then you have a map, and you just fill in the details. Fatherhood was something that only really occurred to me at the end, when I realized that men were absent (or at least optional) in the new paradigm. And in my opinion whenever males of any species aren't given something productive to do they are very dangerous. Showing what matrilineal cultures do would be a perfect antidote. It really isn't that hard to give men a purpose; they just need to be willing to do it and that means shelve the ego!
