Have a cupcake and high tea

I have written quite a number of things about women but I think it is time that I say something about women at least from my perspective. When I was younger, I used to have ambitions. I have ambitions about many things in my life- about wealth, status and power. But as I grow older, I began to realize that I have to make a lot of adjustments in my life in order to gain the above. The first thing to go is the ability to say anything I want and screwed up. The next thing to go is the ability to handle people whom are envious of you- which means you must learn to be prepared to be alone and lastly I learnt which I forgot a long time ago is humility- the ability to roll with the punches and criticisms from all corners.

Let me just said that I have reach a certain level in my life and I used to think that women have quite divergent views on the above. It is my belief that the order is 1) status 2) wealth 3) power. But I am constantly amazed at the ability of women to constantly come back from punches that I believed that they have more power and wish to have more power than I expected.

Call me a chauvinist and I believed that some people, and if not a lot of people will disagree that men will continue and will not dominating the arena insofar that the structures are always in their favour. All institutions are built according to men's ability to negotiate power relations and not the ability to demonstrate their strengths.

I have began to noticed that women's present hunger for power stems from a foolhardy wish to believe that there is no such thing as scarcity. No war, conflict and armed battles doesn't mean that there is too much to go around. We do not have a major war for last 50 years, does not mean that all is fine and dandy out in the political field.

Capitalism only solve the issue of scarcity but it does not mean that demand is simply generated by need. It can be generated by past experience, paranoia and deterrence. This means that the guns and butter issue is not solved simply by producing more butter for everyone so that people don't need to produce guns simply because disrupting it means having less butter.

Hence women our age have experienced an unprecedented age of prosperity, emancipation and status that they forgot that chemical weapons was just used in the 1970s. They have gone to their head that simply by producing more butter, they can increase the price of producing more guns. This means that they forgot all institutions are predicated on a negotiation of powers and not producing more of the same thing. All private and public entities are institutions with managing resources as their ultimate end and not production of any given good.

Governments can and will produce more guns especially if they have capability and need to do so regardless of whether they are more producing an enormous amount of butter via technology or other legal means.

This means that women whom lived in the Generation X onwards is at the belief that peace is a given and therefore that whoever can procure the most resources is the biggest winner. But they forget that labour market and economy is always built on the backs of well regulated and protected society and country.

There is a saying that goes: whatever you cannot protect is not your's. This means that even if you are the most prosperous country in the world, and the next door neighbor points the gun at you, you will have to give up the gold- and all of it.

This means that the women who walks the shopping malls, who walks the grade A offices and who grace society's magazine believes that just because you are doing so, you are in control of all aspects of societies. In order to produce these butter, the tower have to be earthquake proof, the airspace have to be cleared and the land below is privately held and protected by highest law of the land- the Constitution.

It is not the job of women, they often say- hence whatever said above is all load of bullocks, it is understood. Since the Constitution is equal between all citizens of the land, women hence have all the right to hold all positions of power.

This is not a matter of constitutional power nor rights of any given individual, it is the fact that all institutions are really organizations of war. This means that all organizations can and will be tilted towards conflict even if the private production of butter subsumed the production of guns. It is still on the curve and the produce produced is made into other forms of strategic resources. This is not just a matter of military hardware but at the same time, a matter of liberal relations ensuring a balance of power.

We are not at the point where war is not a given. Our institutions can and will be titled towards war simply pressing the button of a major power regardless of whether we give them lots of butter. The trains and buses that we sit on everyday is simply safe not because we take all necessary precautions- it is because someone have ensured that the guns are not pointing at us- and that is definitely not the one sitting on the train or on the bus.

I just like to tell all the women whom have across this article that even if you strip naked in front of the gun, we might still shoot you because, we are more interested in other things. That thing is greed. We can take you and the land that you are standing on simply by pointing the gun at you.

All institutions can and will be turned to this end- and that is why, do not watch the CNN anymore. You really don't know who owns and what drives CNN anymore.

Have a cupcake and high tea but just don't shove it in our face.
