Gender and cultural messages

by Lighten Up Meditation · Dec 12, 2013

We discussed some differences between men and women on the path in the Women’s Meditations that we had in November, and I posted about this recently too.

Related to that, this article I came across by a man who wears nail polish struck me.

The observation that women becoming more masculine is celebrated, while men becoming more feminine is ridiculed, is so true, and so disturbing. It’s such an obvious statement, and it’s not one I’d noticed before.

We’re kinda messed up, people.

Maybe when more women attain Enlightenment and are known for their power, these norms will change.

There is no gender in Eternity. You’re not one sex or the other. Explore that, on the inside, and see what you discover.

And be aware of your cultural conditioning; it can be very limiting. It’s how Maya, the illusion, the veil over what’s Real, is perpetuated. It hides Truth. Don’t let it get in your way!
