Shadow is right.
Thinker does indeed see things thru' her own special lenses, from her own perspective.

Men and women are not equal. It's a fact of life, a fact of God's creation, and a fact we all have, and should accept if we have a healthy understanding of ourselves.

Women attorney's become the perfect example of what not to do.

They study male attorney's and conclude that they are ... "Chauvinist", which they interpret to be obnoxious and pushy. So these women, thinking that's what they need to do to become a successful attorney. They don't become men. They can't. Not even the butch ones. And it's not all women attorneys. Some retain their feminine charm, their womanhood, their grace and elegance, and do a job equal to any man.

But some adopt this obnoxious and pushy attitude in response to this perceived "Chauvanism" and just get it all wrong.

To me it even broke down to a great extent to political lines. The Republican women were the latter. Equal on the job, but still 100% woman at it.

The Democrat women were the ones over reacting. And thus getting it all wrong. Again, not all, just a larger percent.

The basic rule I always gave was, just be yourself. Don't paint others into a caricature and then over react. Don't try to put on a toughness that didn't fit you. Just be yourself.

David,
I notice you joining in on the mob mentality in pointing fingers at me.
This is why I don’t trust you or others who are so quick to turn on another.
I am not a feminist. I believe women should raise their kids rather than pay for day-orphanages (day care). I despise the mass killings of children based on age discrimination (abortion). All I’ve been saying is that God should be worshipped in whole, not just half.

And fyi, God being male and female is in scripture:

“So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.” -Genesis 1:27

You have come a long ways Thinker, I for one am proud of you.

We've already mentioned her in an official proclamation to the world: "ALL HUMAN BEINGS—male and female—are created in the image of God. Each is a beloved spirit son or daughter of heavenly parents, and, as such, each has a divine nature and destiny. Gender is an essential characteristic of individual premortal, mortal, and eternal identity and purpose." I think we're moving in the direction of speaking and teaching more openly about Heavenly Mother.

She's also got her own Gospel Topic entry on LDS.org:

And a pretty good Wikipedia article, too:

The cat is out of the bag, so to speak. I expect Her go get more and more press. Isn't the Age of Information wonderful? I love it!
