Here's A Shock for Women

Screen 34 of 52

Where the Goddess女神 — a woman treated as divine archetype has had the greatest influence is in the individual relationships between women and men. In the 19th century it was normal for men in marriage to be the dominant partner and there was a strong social stigma against him if he wasn't. Legally he was entitled to beat his wife with a stick and have his "conjugal rights". This means his wife wasn't legally entitled to refuse her husband sex and he was allowed to use violence to get his way. At the beginning of the 21st century we now see a big change as woman can have her partner charged with rape or assault if he attempted to do this. Also it is now far more acceptable for men to no longer be the dominant partner, and among the younger generation it seems to be more common place that the women is more dominant. There is also now a increasingly number of househusbands家庭主夫 — a husband who keeps the house where the traditional roles of the sexes has been completely reversed.

So it seems that the Goddess女神 — a woman treated as divine archetype is influencing us all on the political, religious, social and sexual levels. There is now not a part of life that the Goddess女神 — a woman treated as divine archetype in not influencing and changing our world. Even ironically in fundamentalist Churches where you have strong dominant women upholding, "family values" and attacking the rights of women to have abortions.
