Book Cover & Preview Text
Role models are essential to a young child’s development of self. A vicious cycle is perpetuated in an established system concerning problems that develop with individuals as a result of the system. Certainly, there is no utopian or perfect system that can be totally fair to all people at all times. The problem is a result of the imperfect status of men and women. Men and Women have many fallacies and due to their imperfect nature tend to be subjective in most areas of their life. For Example: From a realistic practical standpoint people identify with others with whom they share something in common. It may be the same profession, career goals, hobby…etc… This is viewed as being completely acceptable based on the acculturation process within the system. If we agree that it is only natural and right to deal with others with whom a common interest is established, then a large segment of the general population is automatically eliminated due to past historical factors. The problems that develop from this concept are part of a vicious cycle that is sustained on a daily basis through tradition, culture, environment and media. The manipulation of people is inevitable in any system. This is true primarily due to the acculturation process that is inherent in all systems. Men and Women are social animals and from that perspective/basis, he and she seek confirmation from other men and women. Rules and regulations provide an orderly fashion of doing things and they are subjective to the extent that patterns of behavior can directly be attributed to certain rules and regulations. The problems previously mentioned, when viewed from an objective perspective/basis is a natural phenomenon under any situation where men and women govern men and women.
