I guess I'm not catching something because I fail to see the similarity between conquering nature and conquering a woman. Why does sex involve the man "conquering" the woman? Doesn't she want to as much as he does? "the hero-worship a woman has towards her man makes it possible for her to submit to him sexually." Wouldn't this hero-worship (if it means intense admiration) be what makes him also desire her sexually?

I'm trying to understand the independent qualities of masculinity and femininity, as well as how they relate. Could the same not be said for man/masculinity? That, just as a component of femininity is this "worship" of a man she loves, a component of his masculinity is the "worship" of a woman he loves? That "Intellectually and morally, i.e., as a human being," HE has to be HER equal "then the object of" his "worship is specifically" her femininity "not any human virtue" he "might lack"? If the same could not be said for both, why? If it can, why emphasize the female worship of man over the male worship of woman (if worship "means an intense kind of admiration"). I'm not trying to disagree about the existence of masculinity or femininity as much as understand their essential characteristics (independent of each other) and then their relationship. Are women to be admired less for their femininity than men for their masculinity (assuming all else is equal)? Are women to be less of their own heroes as men are to be their own heroes? Again, I'm not in disagreement, just trying to understand. How did she think a properly feminine woman was to treat men? What about how a properly masculine man was to treat women?

Thank you all for the advice. Thank you volco for the page breeze link. I don't know exactly what all the site would have, because I don't really know what's even possible (which is one reason why I want to learn how to program. To know how it works and what's possible) and if what I want could work. Because I don't know which of my ideas would work, or if they're good or bad, I'm a little hesitant discussing them in such a public environment. But I will PM you (Kevin and softwareNerd) with the basics I have in mind. Thanks again, Robert

Hello all. I've begun thinking about ideas I have for a web site and trying to figure out what I would have to do to make it. And I think I'll have to do some programming for it. But I know very very little about it. I've heard the names of a few languages and I've seen a few lines of code but that's about it. So I was wondering what the easiest way to start learning how to program was? Which language should I start with (even if I have to start with one to learn programming in general and then learn others to be able to make my site)? I also plan on learn html or css or both (or whatever else I need to), but I would also like to know what the easiest way to learn programming would be if I do end up having to program. Are different languages for different types of sites? What are the advantages or disadvantages of each and how do I know what would be the best one for me to learn in the beginning and eventually the best one for my web site? Thanks for your time and help. Robert

You hate when I start venting About the tantrums that you've thrown I will not treat you gently Not with the tactics that you've shown Your arguments are empty And your premises still roam Your certainty is plenty On how nothing can be known Your emotions are so vast With your sympathies bemoaned Your contempt for me is masked With a well-intentioned tone With your riddles not yet grasped You claim my mind hasn't grown But it's this mind that will last When your system is dethroaned Everyone can disagree I'll still stand this ground alone Try to hide the best in me My life you will still not own My word you can take to task You'll forever fetch the bone Though I may be an outcast You're still a ****ing drone
