You may have seen the Manifesto for Conscious Men, by professors Gay Hendricks and Arjuna Ardagh. Many women felt it wonderful. Folks, I feel shame for others, and shame of women also. Imagine a manifesto by two blacks men in the favela Rocinha, in Rio de Janeiro, saying things like "we black people are almost lazybones", "we black people turn in drug dealers to get woman" or "we black people do not have competence to enter college with no quotas". Or two Jews in Nazist Germany doing an open letter of support for Nazism. This manifesto is the same for men. It could have been written by any scoundel snack or any psychotic lesbian feminazist, but was written by two men. We have seen several texts of cajolerism of panties of a man alone, but were TWO MEN. Half a dozen of times speaking ill of women, for things that we feel angry, some people suspect including that we are men. Do you see how woman is above criticism?

But I'm not writing here just to say that I translated this shame to humanity to Brazilian Portuguese and Spanish. I am also here to say that there were the change. First, the Manifesto for Conscious Men, if you do not know. Then see the Manifesto of Women Conscious of Feminine Mediocrity, by professor Marilene Melo da Cruz

Facepalm. When words fail to describe the dismay, there is always Facepalm

A Manifesto for Conscious Men

Gay Hendricks and Arjuna Ardagh

Dear Woman:

I come to you today as a man committed to becoming more conscious in every way. I feel deep love, great respect and a growing sense of worship for the gifts of the feminine. I also feel deep sorrow about the destructive actions of the unconscious masculine in the past and present. I want to apologize to you and make amends for those actions, in order to bring forth a new era of co-creation with you.

As I become more conscious, I grow more aware of the play of masculine and feminine energies: within me, within you and in all of life. I know that we all have access to the full spectrum of these energies. I also have a growing awakening to the dimension beyond all dualities, free and open as the sky.

I commit to owning and stewarding a masculinity that honors and celebrates us as equals. I know that in order to truly honor you as a multi-dimensional woman, I must stand fully present in myself, and own the gifts I have to share with you. We can create great miracles together by nurturing each other in a conscious way, by treating each other with reverence and respect, and by worshiping the divinity expressed in both masculine and feminine energy.

As men, our relationship to the feminine has often been unconscious. I feel sorrow that women and feminine energy have been for so long subjugated and oppressed. Throughout history, men have raped and abused you, burned you at the stake, bought and sold your bodies for sexual pleasure, barred you from religious and political office, relegated you to subservient chores, forced you to hide your faces and even cut off your organs of sexual pleasure.

I may not have done these things myself, but I am aware of the forces in the unconscious masculine psyche that feel threatened by and then seek to dominate the feminine. Many of the men who have oppressed or abused you are no longer alive. Among the living, many men may be unable to apologize because they remain shackled in a prison of anger, fear and shame. On behalf of my gender, I apologize to you for our unconscious actions when we were angry, scared and in the grip of destructive forces in our psyche. I choose no longer to contribute to those forces, nor to be run by them in my own life. I offer you this apology in hopes that we can make a fresh start in a spirit of co-creation.

I acknowledge that the religions of the past several thousand years have been mainly founded by and propagated by men. We have often acted as if we have the last word on God and the spiritual life, when all we have really known is the masculine expression of those things. As a result, we have suppressed more heartfelt, connective and inclusive spiritualities. I commit now to also honoring the spirituality of the divine feminine.

I honor your deep connection to the earth. As men, our relationship to our planet and its resources has often been motivated by competition, acquisition and domination. We mistakenly believed that expansion would protect us from encroachment, and in the process we violated the sanctity of the Earth and disturbed its natural rhythms. I commit to listening to the intuitive sense you have of how to heal our planet and make it thrive.

I honor your intuition and your profound capacity for feeling. As men, we have often devalued feeling and intuition in favor of a view dominated by data and logic. This way of being seemed necessary to move humanity beyond superstition and animalism, but in the process we lost much of the heart of life. I commit to respecting the arts of feeling, intuition and wisdom of the feminine heart, so that together we can integrate them into a balanced view of life, that honors and includes all wisdoms.

I honor the beauty and integrity of your body. When we nurture each other through our bodies with awareness and devotion, there are no boundaries to the love that we can generate. I feel sorrow that men have used your beauty as a form of commerce in prostitution and pornography. In the grip of lust we have often lacked the skills to ask gracefully for intimacy or to take ‘No’ for an answer. I take a stand against any form of enforced or soulless commercialization of woman’s beauty, and I respect that your body belongs to you.

I honor your capacity for peaceful resolution of conflicts, your ability to apologize effectively and forgive with grace. We men have waged endless wars over our disagreements. In the act of defending our lands and protecting our families, we became addicted to the fight itself. By contrast, it is rare to find an invasion or war instigated by a woman. I apologize for dragging you into these wars, and for the rape, murder, broken hearts and damaged families that resulted from them. We welcome your wisdom in creating a world that can get along without resorting to destruction.

I honor your capacity to listen to your body and its needs for food, rest and playtime. I celebrate your ability to pay attention to what is here, right now. As men, our preoccupation with goals and results often has burnt us out and made us unavailable for relationship. I know we have drawn you into this imbalance as well, so often frustrating your longing to connect. The time for a process-centred way of being is now upon us. I welcome your wisdom to maintain balance in our bodies, and in our ways of meeting.

I honor your sense of compassionate justice. In our justice system, men have dominated as judges and police, build prisons and revered the principle of punishment. I welcome you to work with us in bringing the return of the heart to our system of justice.

I also know that global economics have been dominated by the unconscious masculine, often living in a sense of lack and greed. As a result, many people have been left impoverished and disempowered. With your natural sense of nurturing and abundance, I know we can work together to create a truly caring global economics.

In apologizing to you for the hurts we men have caused you, I acknowledge that I and many of my brothers have also felt hurt by our mothers, our sisters, our partners and ex-partners. As a conscious man I am willing to feel those hurts fully within myself and release them. I forgive you for any ways you may have acted unconsciously, as I forgive myself and my gender for our own waking sleep.

From this day, moving forward, I vow to treat your heart as the sacred temple it is, and I commit to honoring the feminine in you and me and in my relationship to all life. I know that by leaving the past behind and joining hands in the present, we can create a synergy of our strengths. Together, there is nothing we cannot do.

Together, we can make miracles.

Manifesto of Women Conscious of Feminine Mediocrity

Dear noble-minded man:

  1. We have a lot to be ashamed of. I also feel deep sorrow about the destructive actions of the unconscious feminine in the past and present. We want to repair what can be repaired, and stop these actions, in order to bring a new era of co-creation with you.

  2. We do not know who created the first religion, if some men or some women. But the religions survived because of us, mediocre women in the past and in the present. Why do we ourselves educate our children this garbage? Do you really believe or have believed that there have been a Goddess who was overthrown by a bunch of idiot males upset, and they shoved down our throats the gods they themselves invented? (Incidentally, what Goddess was that who has not finished with this, to begin with?) And did you really believe that women who have always been half of humanity tolerated for thousands of years a religious and social system where they have never received anything good?

  3. We educate you men to exalt us the just for being women. If you search, you'll find, at any macho time, when we should be subject to parents and husband, without the right to vote, no right even to go out alone on the street, men calling us wise, moral forts, loving mothers, strong, fair, sweet, angelic just for being women. And see how it's funny: we call machismo a system in which you have NEVER done what you wanted, but what we wanted you to do for us. Masters did not use to pull the chair to their slaves to sit, right?

  4. We do not know who was the first person to be ruler over his group, but at worst there would not be the second if we didn't love boasting, humiliation of others, rudeness, vulgar display of power and if we were not three, five, ten women giving sex to the same leading man, each one knowing the others, while to the just, wise, skilled, polite, but non-leading man, we do not give a chance to touch us without dozens of requirements and without the lack of better options. We are not to blame for lack of character and intelligence of some men, but we are to blame for turning a man of character and intelligence in almost a synonym for insignificant clown.

  5. We love it when a man is committing to "owning and stewarding a masculinity that honors and celebrates us as equals" when it means our feminism, of equality in what is convenient and hatred and disrespect for the men in the rest. We love it when some men use their character only to blame themselves for the errors of scoundrels men (which we value more than the feminist men) or to be subjects of our despotism.

  6. Throughout history, too many men have raped and abused women, burned women at the stake, bought and sold their bodies for sexual pleasure, barred women from religious and political office, relegated women to subservient chores, forced women to hide your faces and even cut off their organs of sexual pleasure. Of course, because we created the machismo and educate men to pursue and kill every woman who looked more beautiful, more intelligent, more ethical, more courageous and more balanced than we are. Did you really believe that if, for example, the Catholic Inquisition was a genocide of half the population against the other half that were us, we would have tolerated it for five centuries? Where do you think we were when a woman was being sentenced to death at the stake? In church, secure in the routine of "virtuous" wives-mothers, in house making plans for the money we make denouncing that cow or... in the court that condemned this unfortunate. This you have never been told, right?

  7. Were we who made sexuality be treated as something dirty. The macho men that we create can condemn women who have something that deserves to be called sex life, but even they do not lose the opportunity of extramarital sex and seek prostitutes and pornography. But how many are women who don't say another woman is a whore when she hasn't a "honorable" life? We never heard or read one woman saying that a woman is no worse or less worthy because they made a porn movie, but we could remember in 30 seconds at least four men who said that. Maybe you never noticed that you or your ancestors men were censored by their fathers and mothers not to touch us, look at us or speak to us anything that suggests sex because we don't like.

  8. And wasn't it wonder that we make men think that marriage and family exist for millennia because they, men, want and defend because they know the importance of it? Well, man of character, what a dominant makes when wants whatever is in his field? Is it not very different of you walk on eggshells just to speak to us? Of you go through the oblique looks from our parents and our brothers? Of you prove that you can support us? Of you give money and gifts for us and our parents? Of you dating us guarded by our father and even approaching us? Of you finally marrying us in exchange for horrible sex with woman who you cannot do nice things with and have nothing to talk with? Of a man give satisfaction in a society that he himself created? And even tolerating a band of brothers, cousins, uncles of ours who never had anything to do with that, doing financial agreement with the father-in-law's county, paying a new home for a brother-in-law? Not to say when he even don't know the bride before marriage? We took away sex, love and even affection for everyday life to, using against you, man of character, your nothing wrong liking for sex, can lead you to marriage and through it get status, display, or at least the deliverance of hard work.

  9. Men have used the beauty of women as a form of commerce in prostitution and pornography. Because asking gracefully for intimacy even to his wife, he can take ‘No’ for an answer. And with all the other women sex or even a smile can be very difficult to receive. We wanted to make sex a crime, the erect penis an insult for the woman and man victim of our horror of sex and our futile disinterest in a child that does not support hundreds of rejections that he often does not deserve. But men do not feel obliged to tolerate it. There would be no boundaries to the love that we can generate, if we ourselves, women, did not created them.

  10. We were the ones responsible for all dictatorships. We raised children usually submissive, unloved, traumatized, frustrated, fool and religious. In fact, every dictatorship has a religious side, many of them came in the name of preserving family, chastity and religion. And in some of them we were on the streets to defend it, or denounced our own husbands if they were not docile to the dictator. Besides, we also raised men to be beasts of burden providers. So even in today democracies the vast majority of men support the abuse of unpleasant companies and co-workers just to continue to earn the salary that pays our and our children's expenses.

  11. And we did also another kind of dictatorship: feminism. We can get out of a relationship with half of the assets of the man more plus pension for our children and this is justice; we can write that all men are criminals, rapists and miscreants and that's not like say that every black is a criminal; we can some of us defend absurd anti-male laws or even the mass extermination of men and the others say they have nothing to do with it; we can be rude as an animal with a man and this is PMS. But in academia, the media or in the day-by-day, a man can not say anything that offends our ego without, at least, adding explanations of what he is not saying.

  12. It is rare to find an invasion or war instigated by a woman, or even a common crime committed by a woman. And is it needed? The bandits have stolen the wages of a worker or millions of taxpayer money to impress the more beautiful and more poor of values women. And how many times we ourselves order crimes? If all else fails, they will be injured, arrested or die. We are not to blame for lack of character and intelligence of some men, but we are to blame for turning a man of character and intelligence in almost a synonym for insignificant clown.

  13. Men of greatness and courage, we honor you for giving us atheism. Or rather, for having defended the obvious fact that the gods do not exist, at social of even life peril, even today, countering the myth that one day someone invented to aggrandize his own ego, eat the labor of others and dominate his fellow, myth supported and taught by us. Religions insult the intelligence of the wise and steal the dignity of those who follow them and the life of those who did not bow their heads.

  14. Men of greatness and courage, we honor you for giving us anarchy. Or rather, for having defended the obvious fact that only exhibitionist, egocentric, violent, unethical and self-serving people can not form a orderly and efficient social group moved by mutual cooperation and without hierarchies.

  15. We were profiteers of the contribution of men to humanity, not only did shamefully less than them but we cursed the peasants after the ripe fruit. Let the feminists name 5, 10 or 50 big women's names in History. Why there are dozens or hundreds of men with the same or greater importance to each one of them? Oh, we were oppressed by men, who would not let us go out of our houses? How could it be, if we are goddesses or almost goddesses, and men are not more than creeps who only think of beer and sex? Of course, we're not counting the last few decades, when any hypocrite blowjobber female may be a specialist with post-graduation, an influential person or at least a celebrity. In places that, especially for work of some men, have become the best in the country or the world, with enough fruit to be distributed to mediocres and crooks. But even when and where women are most at universities, usually we evade of Physics and Mathematics like the devil from the cross and poorly produced in years of graduation and postgraduation a technical text that is even known to exist. The men did a lot of junk, but have done many good things, and even feminism came about because the world has improved a lot, and not vice versa. Then, the better and freer a society became, the more we use the progress you men have achieved to aim that you have nothing than moral and intellectual junk in your head, only did us wrong and should vanish from before us to us ascend to power and each position that give us whatever we want.

  16. We should be ashamed of having created the machismo to control men and each other.

  17. We should be ashamed of we have taught machismo to our children.

  18. We should be ashamed to attribute all men our evils, especially machismo, which is larger in ourselves.

  19. Men of decency, we went so wrong to ask pardon is an offense to his dignity. Our relationship with you, nice men, was of rudeness, stupidity, psychopathy, hypocrisy, vanity, emotional instability, utilitarianism, ingratitude, deceit, slander, blackmail, contempt, disrespect, abuse and sadism. We always put you down even the poor men of worst character. Only the rudeness that we made to one single man who sought to treat us with respect over the years have taken him away health, gladness and above all reason to be kind and ethical. And we furthermore have to answer for even the lives of righteous people who we personally destroyed or delayed, for prison after anonymous denounce, causing their demission for being our rival or steal their career, throwing our rude and aggressive husbands and brothers against them and a thousand other ways. Even in a youth that lasted 100 years (theirs and ours) we wouldn't do anything that was larger than what they deserve or that we ourselves haven't done by men far less worthy. We want learn from you, good man, character, education, wisdom, respect, kindness and stop doing wrong. It's all we can do hereafter, at same time it's nothing beyond the minimum of the obligation that any bit of ethics and reasonability urges us. Use the power and talent that you have within yourself to advance in your life, but let the first to eat from your tree be yourself, and not your parasito wife, your ungrateful son, your insatiable relative or the man who exploits another man. We will not say you "go ahead in your life", because that would mean "damn you with the marks of our dirty fingernails", but we'll say "let us, men and women, build a new life".

  20. We could raise boys and girls who would bring Heaven to earth when they grow up if we had character and wisdom to do so. But we have not cared if 99% of humanity will kill one another or if 99% of the world will become uninhabitable ruins since our ego to be high, our vanities to be met, we are pleased and we not have to know what is working hard to our own support. Together, we can make miracles, but to this day we have used you to create hell.
