I am certainly no fan of Bill and Hillary Clinton. If either of them were to pass me in public I would not shake their hand or acknowledge them in any way aside from anyone else. They are both disgraces to America for many reasons. It does not surprise me that Bill’s mistress Gennifer Flowers claimed that Hillary was a bisexual. It would not surprise me if the Clinton household regularly participated in three-way sex and that Hillary actually found it appealing to learn of her husband’s multiple sexual liaisons with other women. Hillary obviously has a kind of voyeuristic lust for her husband’s sexual recklessness that is more common among women from her generation than many people care to admit. But what does surprise me is that Gennifer Flowers said she would support Hillary for president in spite of all the hard public relation battles that went on over the years between them, for the one all-powerful reason………………because Hillary is a woman.
This statement reminded me of the stupidity of the levy supporters at Lakota that tried to make me out to be a “sexist” because I called levy supporters “latté sipping prostitutes with asses the size of car tires and diamond rings to match.” My political opponents believed that all the women of my community would join their band-wagon against me for the one solitary reason, because they were all women. The suggestion was that being a woman trumped all logic and individual thought and that as a demographic group, they all stood together.
Several years ago there was a very distinguished family member who came to my home while I was at work to take my wife out to lunch—to supposedly touch base and see how things were going—to talk “girl talk.” I have discussed that my wife has never worked in a career and has been a housewife for most of our 25 years of marriage. It’s an arrangement that we mutually support and believe very passionately in. We rejected the social concerns of the 60s, of feminism, and diluted family relationships early in our marriage, and maintained that position even to the present. I even spent a considerable amount of time explaining that position in my novel Tail of the Dragon released last year, staying sold out during four fiscal quarters. My wife and I have always been staunch supporters of traditional families, and rejected many of the arguments made by feminists. At events, particularly where this family member was present, the first question they’d ask my wife is, “do you have a job yet?” Or, “you never want to be in a position where you have to depend on a man, after all, what if something were to happen to Rich.” This went on for many, many years, and we casually brushed off the comments after each engagement out of politeness. All the other women in the family however buckled under these types of elder statesman, and they were diminished greatly in my eyes by the influence of the bra burning exploits of the family feminists. Over the years, my wife began to stick out like a sore thumb at Holiday dinners and this really made some of the women mad, especially the aforementioned woman. This prompted the luncheon she invited my wife on out-of-the-blue, which naturally drew my suspicion. But I do not tell my wife where to go and where not to go. She is free to do what she pleases when she pleases to do it-which is my gift to her for being the centerpiece of our family, so my wife agreed to meet with the family feminist to…………..”touch base.”
The luncheon went the way I expected and over the next two hours migrated from small talk centering on all the family’s children to an all-out assault against my wife’s chosen way of life. The meeting ended by this family member telling my wife that “we’re going to get you if you don’t listen,” meaning that my wife was making the other women in the family question feminism, and that my wife needed to get on board with the collectivism of womanhood—otherwise there would be consequences.
Well, I don’t take threats well—in fact, I don’t take them at all—ever. Never have, and I never will. As close as that family member was to us, we have never spoken since, and that was over a decade ago. There are of course the casual hellos, and good-byes out of politeness, but never any discussions of a personal matter. But as angry as I was, I didn’t tell my wife how to feel and think about the situation—she arrived at her own conclusions, which were of course very similar to mine. After that event it left us both wondering who “WE” was. After a lot of time passed it became more clear who the “WE” were in reference. My wife was expected to surrender her loyalty to our family in favor of the collective whole of the family member’s suggestion. If she didn’t, there was a threat of action—either social castigation, or possible physical violence.
The result dramatically backfired. My wife and I haven’t been married for a quarter of a century because we don’t get along. She may not be as violent, and display such a vicious temper as I do at times, but she is every bit as vindictive when threatened maybe more so. A rift formed in our family from that point on that never recovered, and is why I can talk about the things I do here at Overmanwarrior’s Wisdom knowing full well that everybody reads it. That is because my life is aligned with my thoughts, and what I have said here in writing, I have said in person to many people to their faces. My wife was made to feel badly by other women for many years because she stayed home with our children and baked cakes for their birthdays personally instead of buying one from Kroger. When my kids wanted a drink, my wife was there. When they wanted help with their homework, my wife was there. When my kids wanted someone to drive them someplace, my wife was ALWAYS there. My wife was there every single day of their growing up years to cook them fresh food for every meal and teach them values as question arose. Because of my wife, my kids never had to rely on a third-party for instruction.
Of course over the years the roots planted in such times begin to yield fruit. The family member mentioned who threatened my wife found her existence plagued with social problems from her part of the line. All the women who bought into the feminist dialogue are suffering through various problems, such as financial stabilization, ethical conduct, and personal aptitude. My children have no such problems—zero and that is more than a proud father talking. It is everyone who meets them. The family member was wrong, and my wife was right. The implied threat backfired and caused rifts in our family that will last a lifetime because it is not the will of any group—even a group of women, to change the mind of a single individual. It was not my wife’s duty or task as a woman to yield to the pressure of a powerful family member who subscribed to the feminist arguments of her day. In my family, my wife and I agreed to reject those arguments in favor of tradition and the results are self-evident.
What Gennifer Flowers is talking about in reference to Hillary is virtually the same. She clearly resents that she is not married to Bill Clinton, and would love to have been the first lady of America if only she could have stayed with her lover. But she is willing to put personal issues aside in favor of Hillary for president not because she is a better person for the job, or has a proven track record as a politician. She stated that she would vote for Hillary only because they share womanhood in common, and that the sex or race of a candidate is the primary qualifier of their decision to vote for a so-called leader. Gennifer Flowers is talking about collectivism of the worst sort, and brings to light why Barack Obama is the current president not because of his skill as a politician, but because he is a man of color. People of color have voted for Obama nearly 100% of the time because of the color of the politician’s skin, not by the beliefs of the individual. Flowers is suggesting the same. Women should vote for Hillary forgetting the Benghazi debacle, the lies, the murders, he incredible deception projected by the Clintons over many years, because she is a women—and only for that reason.
The same ignorance has been seen in family politics, and even local politics where my opponents having no way to win an argument against me attempted to use feminism as a club to unify the women of all political types under common causes of sexuality—which is a dangerous assumption. It didn’t work of course, but did bring out the unusual amount of anxiety many men feel toward their wives fearful that they will turn against them and run toward the collectivist tendencies of group behavior, in this case feminism. The implied threat against my family seen many times is that if I or my wife did not yield to the power of the collective, then our individualities would be snuffed out. The same rational is being put forth by Gennifer Flowers toward Hillary Clinton, a rival for her affection toward the only man it sounds like she ever loved in Bill Clinton. Collective feminism takes higher value over individual desires, or as Spock would say in Star Trek, “The needs of the many would out-weigh the needs of the few.” Well, Spock is wrong, and so are the feminists. The many do not trump individual thought, yet those who allow for such possibilities find themselves in a life constantly in trouble seeking solace which never comes from the group. Women should vote for whom they think is the best person, they should not vote in a certain way because feminism demands it. So long as these elements exist in American culture, no amount of bright lights and academic progress can erase the fact that society is still functioning as a hunter and gather tribe stuck in a village mentality. So long as individuality is frowned upon and collectivism is championed, society will continue to be corrupt, stagnant, and morally lost. As far as presidential candidates who represent collectivism none is more positioned than Hillary Clinton who is a buffoon, and a woman of many secrets. Yet women will have to make the choice that is a hard one, one that my wife had to make many times over many years, to reject feminism for the thoughts of their own mind, and to be dedicated to themselves and their families and reject their collective associations for which they are members only because of their sexuality.
As to the next question many reading this will ask, what does my wife do with herself now that the children are grown? How does she fill her days? The answer is she is free to do whatever she pleases. She is a free woman. She is not in service to an institution, a social obligation, or any family member. She can do what she wants when she wants to do it. And lucky for her, she likes to read, because I do too. That is the key to a long marriage, and really nothing else, shared common interest, and making sure that outside influences do not end up in the bedroom. Ladies, forget about Hillary Clinton or Opera. Strive for freedom and drop the concerns for inclusion in any groups of collective endeavor. Be individuals and strive every day to be free. You will be a lot happier if you do.
