"ALL WOMEN ARE WITCHES?

Witch Hunt
Worldwide there is so much fear as a fascination with witches.
From small, we are fascinated by tales with witches, terrible and powerful women are able to turn a man into a toad with a spell. Where does this terror by witches?
The first suspicions about the existence of witches were born in the eleventh century, when Europe was obsessed with sending crusaders to the Holy Land to be killing Muslims on the road. Almost all orders of Christian warriors asked these gentlemen celibacy, because if they fell in love and had children wanted to stay in the comfort of your home, and the Holy Order lounging husbands should say goodbye to the idea of \u200b\u200ba Christian epic long trips in the name of Christ. Be crossed or Knight of the Order of the Cross of Malta was an activity of enormous prestige. The boys wore their hair shaved, long beards, white coats, armed with spears and swords and motaban spirited horses. By the way, took possession of the lands they took away from the infidels. It went really well, except for the temptations of the flesh, which had always existed and hardly resist.
To ensure that the priests were devoted only to the priesthood, the Christian church (like many pagan beliefs) required celibacy for priests, bishops and popes, saying that everything that has to do with sex is a temptation to evil that corrupts the soul. For priests forced to celibacy the mere presence of women was harmful, because they were thinking about sex, separating them from their prayers and religious fervor. Some orders of monks, like the Greek monks of the Monastery of Meteora, even prohibiting the entrance to the monastery of anything female. So if you go into a chicken before eating raped.

. Other religions do the same, such as Islam that prevents women from entering mosques. And if they come, should do so in hidden places where you watch everything spying without being observed. This means that for many centuries, the hierarchy of different religions that women prefer to hide as if there were, not to infuse sexual desires men to be devoted to think only in a God-man with a beard. Opt Children then use to evade the guilt of "I have not been, it has been" blaming women put their souls libidinous thoughts. They are the devil, but with tits. Since
religion, shame and guilt are an inextricable part of female sexuality. The Bible says that woman was created from the rib of man to accompany him as a sex slave. The Bible tells us that man is a woman's mind and body. Since the woman was made for procreation, the woman's body was an invitation to lust. The woman's body was guilty of producing in men unspiritual feelings that filled guilt and shame. Therefore, the woman was dark and sinful man ... a poor victim of her charms.
Women were condemned to ignorance and illiteracy, thus inherited from the men all male beliefs through religion, for centuries and until today. Since ancient times were the men who drew the lines of what is normal and what is not, what is beautiful and what is not, what is foul and what not.
Because men rule the society if all people work and think alike all the time, women who do not work the same all the time are abnormal. Therefore, the period should be assumed - as men - an abnormal pathology .. And
as they are in charge, we believe them.
Luckily we do not live in Europe in the thirteenth century, when this misogyny was at its peak maximum.
in the eleventh century some monks tried to write books on how to detect heretics, Jews as wicked and punish them, detailing the fiendish ability of women to provoke lustful desires in men. None was successful, and several lawyers and church officials considered them all illegal.
But in the fateful year of 1486 two Dominican monks - Heinrich Kramer and Jacob Sprenger - Inquisitors eager achacarlesus misogynist sinful thought all women in the world, achieved convince the Church to publish the Malleus Maleficarum (The Hammer of Witches), which was a death sentence more than 130,000 women worldwide. The best seller was printed in the heart of Europe, just 30 years after the invention of printing, which allowed for fast 36 editions between 1487 and 1669, all endorsed by the Church.
Divided into three parts, the book proved in the first that the Devil exists and has more power over women, because the devil's power is greater where there sexuality and "women are more sexual than men." Quoting: "All witchcraft comes from carnal lust, which the women are insatiable." In the second account as identifying witches and in the third explains how to end them.
What began as an action of the church against heresy ended up being a genocide against women product of mass hysteria that persecuted for centuries.
Of course, the first of which the accused was sexually enticing to men, sexual promiscuity, and repulsive activities as infanticide and cannibalism child. The book convinced all Europe and its colonies that Christianity was threatened by witches. And said to not believe in witches was a crime equivalent to heresy, the fearsome slogan that "hairesis est maxima opera non credere Maleficarum "(" The greatest heresy is not believing in the work of witches. ")
accusing What women? Seven
"damage to the men" committed by witches, or "seven methods by which infect with witchcraft the venereal act and the conception in the womb." In other words, were accused of practicing contraception seven
"First , to incline the minds of men irregular passions, and second, by blocking the generative force, third, by removing members arranged for such acts; room transforming men into beasts by their magic arts, fifth, by destroying the generative force in women sixth, with the abortion; seventh, the offering of children to the devil. "
These seven methods would be translated into modern language:
adulteriosin for fornication and having children (which tend to prevent procreation), making men impotent,
castration of male homosexuality
cause that brings no procreation, birth control
,
cause abortions and killing newborn born.
The eleventh chapter of Volume I say that the worst of witches are midwives who kill newborn children and offer them the devil. Also accused of giving women magic potions that prevents conception and cause abortion, and accused of devouring newborns misogynist
Another monk, the Italian Francesco Mario Guazzo wrote the Compendium Maleficarum (Witches' Handbook), where lists the diabolical methods of birth control. They are cause hatred between the couple, stay away, the man prevent an erection, make no access to contraceptives and sex with a man. So the dare tell the mariod "Not tonight, my head hurts," corríoa the risk of ending up in the fire. French economist Bodin
contributed their bit by saying that is obstructing the work of the devil which purpose of marriage was ordained by God, who is having children. And a woman seeking a divorce or causes infertility commits a sacrilege. "Nor can you deny that he committed murder: for he that prevents conception or birth of a child commits murder as he who cuts the throat of another."
Why so much suspicion against midwives?
Because the birth was embarazoy hands of wise women, midwives and healers, and at that time no doctor man was allowed to treat a woman. And the midwives were provided to these contraceptives to poor farmers who could no longer keep more children. But the church no quería que las pobres abortaran. De hecho, en estos libros la palabra “maleficium”se refiere al acto de causar un aborto o el producir esterilidad mediante medios mágicos (hierbas anticonceptivas), que para la iglesia era un acto diabólico…açun hoy en pleno siglo veinte , donde desaconsejan el uso del preservativo y prihiben el aborto..O sea que la persecución de las “brujas” fue iniciada por las autoridades eclesiásticas para exterminar el control de la natalidad.
¿Pero por qué razón quería la iglesia que naciera más gente?
Entre los años 1348 y1352 la Peste Negra atacó a Europa diezmando su población . La peste - y sus rebrotes adicionales in subsequent decades until 1385 - was the biggest catastrophe in the history of Europe, causing more deaths than the two World Wars of the twentieth century together. Bubonic Plague - transmitted by fleas from rats, killed a third of the population of Europe, from Portugal to Russia. So much death ended the easement for the estates of feudal landowners. Most of the land was owned by the church. In the thirteenth century the Roman Catholic Church in England received more than double the tax on receiving the king of England. The church was the biggest feudal Europe, owning 20% \u200b\u200bO30% of the fertile land as church property, against 5% who had the king. The African slaves left dead on the ground without work and the church was to repopulate their land with serfs urgently to make it pay. So it is not uncommon in 1360 began to run with the midwives in each village under the slogan "Nobody is more dangerous and pernicious to the Catholic faith than midwives." The midwives were older women, mothers of several children, and familiar with the natural processes and reproductive issues, so I had to remove them so they do not help girls to avoid becoming pregnant. Over time the plea was distorted and there was such a mess that any allegations of witchcraft to anyone for anything: by antipathy, being unmarried, having pets at home, having had a spontaneous abortion and for selling stale cheese ... The same astronomer Johannes Keppler passed a very bad shot trying to prevent a resentful neighbor sent his mother to the fire , accusing her of witchcraft, just because the garden of Mrs. Keppler gave better results than theirs.
The church, as now, women did not want birth control. Had to repopulate the land to have someone to work the land and collect more taxes. And even today, the anachronistic church still prohibits contraception ... in an overcrowded world.
She is responsible for giving life that decides whether or not the da da, which has a great power in their hands if they define it, or species, is playing or not.
And that terrifies men.
Menstruation is a living reminder of the feminine power to give (or deny) life. For them, almost a trailer for a horror movie.

"Women are all witches?

What is what is so shameful and unspeakable to the biological process that occurs in all women in the world?
Let's see ... When you remove an enemy of the way, what is the best you can say to neutralize? Anything that complexes, that makes you feel bad about yourself. Those words are self-conscious insults: a fast and effective way to neutralize the other referring to his insecurities, deep complex of inferiority and guilt feelings entrenched.
What's the worst thing you can say to someone? To weaken the enemy will say "das shame", "You disgust me," stink "," are weak "," are sick "and you mention to the mother that bore him. Telling women that they suck, they are sick, they go for a week once a month disgusting, the complexes and neutralizes a very effective way. They feel so bad that even attempting to gain a place in society.
And what does the mother who bore him with personal insecurities of each? The mere mention of the mother that bore him mad with rage at anyone, but much more like a man. Imagine that every man carries a lifetime trying to separate from the mother who wanted to keep him at his side, perhaps by excessive amor.Aludiendo the Oedipus complex and the primary man in love with her mother (who never stops going ), the worst thing you can tell a man to return to the site that you worked so hard to leave: the womb of his mother. By God, not be reminded! It's like saying "Go back to jail!" Who just turned 40 years of doom!
In an identical manner, the insult "motherfucker" is an Oedipal interest of insulting the maternal genitalia, to which every man has the mandate to escape to grow.
Menstruation is the most evident and conclusive that the possessor is female, and fertile. A protest so strongly of fertility is a blatant reminder that menstruating man, besides being a woman, a mother is dormant.
Presumably, the ancestral male rejection of women has much to do with the difficulties of men detached from the mother in a non-traumatic. In a society of men raised by single mothers (parents do not contribute significantly in breeding, or in the presence or dedication), the little men tend to be more attached to mothers than they want and should. In our modern society we do not pass rites or ceremonies that indicate when a man ceases to be children and become men or have male figures in weight, and male models or mentors to imitate, so the launch of mothers is hard. And so any reference to "back with mom" is so terribly offensive and return to kick where it hurts. The aforementioned feels mocked: "I just got out of the bowels of my mother pulls ... and send me back there?".
When we are menstruating, for Men are more mothers suddenly reminded mesnrruación mujeres.La our potential Maternity And that bothers them greatly. The mothers gave them orders, they imposed punishments, rules and conditions, forced to do terrible things they did not want, such as brushing teeth, tying shoes and eating vegetables. Mothers are all wicked witches. Are to blame for everything. Dad was not there, so it's a saint. It is the very poor mothers who are to take revenge. In fact, scholars say archetypes all phallic mother is a witch, powerful, stirring a cauldron of mysterious potions (the kettle is always a metaphor of the uterus) that eats children and know magic spells that nobody else knows. A puts his potions ingredients such as frogs. Toads have been for centuries a symbol of the female reproductive system, viewed from above, your body is more like a womb, his legs are the fallopian tubes. Witches sometimes take owls, a symbol of female wisdom, inherited from the goddess Minerva or Pallas Athena. And moving on broomsticks, as mothers, always sweeping through the house. So in the collective imagination, the mothers are all witches, and in some countries the wife is "the witch." Mean that men all women are witches.
In modern society these powerful witches who are always right are encouraged to take Places of decision beyond the four walls of the house. If men can not tolerate the competition or their own peers ... imagine how they like the women's competition!
Why witches are scary?
The feminist scholar Camille Paglia says men mythologically identify women with nature at its most untamed condition. It depends on the survival of the species. To make matters worse, the pregnant woman "becomes an ontological entity, devilishly complete, that does not need anything or anyone." In the modern world, "strange things" that make women - such as menstruation and birth - before the became goddesses, have moved as "dirty deeds" or "animals." And it is expected to be a sex object whose standards of beauty are constantly reviewed. Paglia said that the beauty that is required of women is a commitment that is required to maintain their powerful attraction archetypal controlled and intellectualized, medicalized creams, beauty treatments and surgery, giving the man the comforting illusion of intellectual control over nature. If you send to the goddess to the hairdresser to make it more beautiful, certainly longer goddess and has to go through a complex process between rollers, scissors, curling irons or dyes, to attract the opposite sex. So for man, she no longer has a fascination with archetypal, but through complex processes, now, make it extremely attractive. See how easy it is collapsed to a god, you say you go to the hairdresser ... And if you still too powerful, it is thanks to the ongoing and a plate, not because of his power!
This is how society criticizes the woman chubby and wrinkles "because it has ceased to be, does not stain, does not use creams, makeup and is not fat," just as critical to that and removes stains wrinkles saying "it does not accept his young age, he did everything, which is frivolous." Women are blamed for ignoring the prevailing standards of beauty, and conform to them. Not to be sufficiently attractive to the man and for being too attractive. As a witch, is to blame for everything, whatever you do.
has been studied much the archetypal image of the witch tales: a woman who does not dress to please, who will not be pretty, you know too many mysterious things, and has long nose and a broomstick in hand two phallic symbols undoubtedly, if the club makes it fly, we can even assume that does not need a man to "fly" with pleasure. Therefore, any woman who does not worry about your appearance and not be afraid to become a witch, has more power than it is concerned to please. Every woman
be dedicated to beautiful and hide mensrruacion simultaneously lose tons of time on both, and thus lose time to grow, and lose power. This will make it attractive because most men are so insecure that they prefer weak and insecure. Note that the perfect woman is the one with full mouth, pink and shiny, rosy cheeks, big eyes with long eyelashes, small nose and thin hair and clear: the picture of a baby. Is for every woman to decide if he will devote his life to like insecure men or engage in what she likes.
But before he had time to panifique anything, it is best to neutralize women not want to compete with males. And what better way to insult all that is essentially female? On the other hand, what is more feminine than menstruation?. And look at the insults that we mentioned before, "das shame", "You disgust me," stink "," You're a moron "," are weak "," are sick "- are perfectly applied to the entire menstruating world view: "disgusting", "embarrassed," sucks "," you weak "and" ill will ". They want to show that the worst that can happen is menstruating, when in fact they worst that can happen is not menstruating. And what they do is give you ashamed of menstruating. That is almost the same as being ashamed of being female. Knowing
are always observed and critiqued, all watching live appearance to detail, thinking "I get that too ... not too little."
"We are taught to hide under the makeup that we want. And we hid ourselves voluntarily thinking that makes us free. Makeup is for us like the veil of Arab women: is our version of the chador, "says Erica Jong. So many centuries of misogyny
exacerbated, so much history of subjugation of women could only end with a revolution violent. But as you can not do, because it is illegal, it is the other way that makes all people subject: making himself the master discourse. As Erica Jong said, "when women have suffered so intensely sexism disease is the spread between them, we have a perfect machine for the sexism to continue. Unable to run our claims against men, we turn against each other " [1] . We assume the speech pattern and we neglect ourselves and our bodies. We believe with cellulite, wrinkles and blemishes. We get sick of bulimia and anorexia, you sissies diseases who refuse to have female bodies.
According to Erica Jong, we model living in the harem, all against all hoping that the Sultan will choose only to you. For men this is great, because if you have women competing with each other instead of supporting each other, they still reign quiet and subjecting women. What women do not mistreat or compete with each other? Question in any job: lots of smiles and stabbed in the back. Alliances are always strategic. Girls returning from school crying about the bad things they said her best friend. Heads giving you more room for the male of the group that a woman with the same capacity as the. Women who criticize or poor the first to be removed from the meeting. Wives of violent men who hate ex women against them, knowing that the ex-wives are so victims like them. Jong says "When we stop to punish ourselves and others, will be able to join hands to defeat those who abuse women and children," But how to create solidarity among women, when even we are reconciled with us and should not accept us as women? We live to fight the ghosts of the fat and old age, looking for impossible goals - eternal youth and beauty, and we disgusted by things that are essential, differential, single basic fact of being women: menstruation. This ends up being a talented American humorist and Jan King, type [2] a phrase like "Tell me about a woman who watches the approach of the period without sweating and I'll tell you one that enjoys if you make cuts with the razor blade." And speaking of menstruation as a punishment, curse and torment: "Menstruation is one of the hormonal functions of Mother Nature, famous for choosing the most inopportune times and actively sabotage even the slightest chance to enjoy life" and gives as the worst of the period that "if you do not have towels at hand, you spot your best dress of white silk"
Jan King, like many successful writers, has succumbed to the masculine discourse indicates that menstruation is a typical disaster women. As we all agree with this, who reads it, laughs, relieved that no one would put into question: "women are a disaster, horrible things happen without a solution, and are to blame for everything" However, women are victims of a perverse society that asks us to be forever young, because they despise the old. But there is no greater sign of youth who continue menstruating. However, the period is neglected. Then you hide it and hope that you will remove for ever. But when he finally retires, you're not young. Not having a period is the most blatant proof that you are not young.
So the woman is trapped in a place always undesirable, or be menstruating, or no longer menstruate. Fault, for being a woman.
