Too Much Yin
JHK: The Yin and Yang of It
A few weeks ago, podcaster Dave Rubin had “spiritual teacher” Eckhart Tolle on for a chat, and Mr. Tolle made the surprising remark that the current sorrows of the world were due to an excess of yin and not enough yang, meaning, he went on to explain, too much of the female principle in operation and not enough of the male principle. This crack made Dave Rubin blink a few times, especially coming from the most serene celebrity on the planet, a fellow far less excitable than the Dalai Lama, and a demigod to the yoga pants and Chai tea crowd. Too much yin! He said that? Really?
Nationalism as a Form of Statism
Postliberal Thought: What The Nationalists Get Wrong: A Defense of the Particular and the Universal

More Feminist Lecturing
Because patriarchy is real!
Apparently Caroline Paul doesn't acknowledge in public that feminism has won in the public square. Why should an atypical high-T woman get to dictate what feminine virtue is for the average woman? I should check her

Ballistic: Freaks of Nature: The Guide to Cross-Eye Dominant Shooting By Sean Utley
Cross-eye dominant shooting can be a major headache or a blessing in disguise depending on how each shooter goes about correcting it.

Little Women
There is an element of feminism in the original novel, isn't there, though it is fixed? Will the new adaptation play it up?
Will the new movie be better than the recent Masterpiece Theater adaptation of last year?

This IS Not Misogynistic?
They would probably defend it as being an allegory about living under patriarchy or something.

An Example of Convergence Within the American Church
But schools have to advertise their success!
And in so doing, they show how they have accepted liberalism and feminism.
