Woman Aware: Could Eliminating Religious Creeds Emancipate Women? (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781491824511)

To be AWARE of the unconscious motivations impinging on our senses is the heart of this book. While the near universal belief that women are the inferior gender is refuted by contemporary empirical scientific evidence, this prejudice, while not restricted to Temple, Church or Mosque, has been conceived, nurtured and promoted by select religious dogmas of 'The Big Three' religions. The unconscious influences, guided by such tenets, have resulted in slavery, violence, forced prostitution, genital mutilation and national laws that omit rape as a crime. Historically 'The Big Three' attributed their bias to a Higher Authority, and this allegation provided the excuse for the deprivation of women's rights around the world for centuries. Unconscious discriminatory thinking lies behind the gender gap in almost every area of modern civilized life. Why do women accept second-class status in their homes, jobs and communities? Why are there are so few women in public office in the enlightened climate of the United States? The root of this prejudice lies deep in our historical past but its unconscious impact is felt to this day. It is self-defeating for any society to discriminate against half its population. It is not only the females who suffer. It is damaging to any culture. Individuals need to challenge these biases and practices. World cultures need to make the unconscious - conscious and choose ways to promote gender equality in order to positively and productively utilize a vast, largely untapped resource -Woman Aware.
