Consider the Western culture today. A major part of a man or a woman’s time is spent trying to draw everyone’s attention to issues related to women, beauty, make-up, fashion, female attractiveness, and the issue of the lust that exists between men and women. These things take up much of people’s time. It is obvious that a woman is unable to make use of all of her talents in a system like that, which is misdirected, evil, and dangerous.
