Eve and Adam—out
Of the Garden of Paradise,
Adam by choice, Eve by clout,
She wanted to be wise.

Thacious, Oedipus, and others,
Heroes by choice and make.
Some also were mothers,
Homer, Aristotle and the fake.

The woman in the tent with a peg,
Cleopatra, Ahaz and Jezebel,
Esther, Mordekhai—for trial to beg,
Abraham had to dig another well.

Jacob, Rachel, Leah and Laban,
Potiphar’s wife—Joseph in jail.
Pharaoh and Israel’s haven.
Moses’ mother chose—didn’t fail.

Greeks made heroes, and wives for the home to keep.
Males named predators, to act.
Truth didn’t matter, therefore the writers had to leap.
Males and females labeled as fact.

Literature maintaining the myth
For the expecting audience:
The man as a mean smith
The woman as full of innocence.

My comment

It is amazing, when men murder their children, they are put in jail waiting trail; but when women murder their children, they are put in the hospital.

When was the last or first time a father was put in the hospital for killing for killing hi children? Is this bias? Please tell me.

Is The Telegraph helping or endangering lives in Egypt?

The Telegraph’s decision to credit America with democracy movements is great, but the timing may be uappropriate, in Egypt’s situation. After all, the democratic movement is not yet in power. According to the news, the very leader who was the supposed connection to the US embassy a few years ago, is under Egyption arrest.

Under the present conditions, the release of such information may put democracy leaders’ lives in jeopardy. At least torture is almost guaranteed.

Therefore, where is the editors’ wisdom about such publication at this time? It appears as anti-American. Or worse yet, it may cause difficulties for US intervention or help with communicating with Mubarak.

Is this Fox News bias?

My comment:

If it was the father, the headlines would probably say “Father kills children”. However, Officer’s wife, implies that it was not a mother. Is this a form of bias to protect the title “Mother?” Let me know if I am wrong. Feminism is very sneeky and clever in wording by their own definition of words.
