Thanks for the invite, and yes I am enjoying listening in to this conversation. On my mind a lot as I was steeped as a younger adult in a Christian patriarchy. I saw Apollo 11 last night (the new documentary) and was surprised and a little shocked to notice how comforting it was to see all those guys working together on a mission, with all the women on the sidelines. That’s so not my world now and I’m glad its not but it was telling, that response I had. And I concur with Elle that we tend very much to underestimate the impact of our culture on our own views, emotions, desires. We are highly mimetic creatures and yet we live in a culture that pretends otherwise. Sorry if I’m oversharing.
