He asserts that the " woman in process"... "at her worst"... "While she may act sexually responsive and aroused, hers is a fragile interest in sex that can easily be made a low priority. Being loved, not being sexually desired, is her motive". (p54)


Woman in process? What does that mean? And if she isn't in process? What is a 'woman in process' at her best like?

Quote:
"She is out-of-touch with her sexism, which is every bit as intense as men's objectification of women. Men are attractive, sexy and desirable to her to the degree that they are powerful and successful. A man is a success object, who is attractive to the extent that he can be a rescuer, a protector, and a provider. None of these necessarily have any connection to his qualities as a person-the thing that most women believe is the major priority."


I know women like that.

But to a greater or lesser degree, men and women do that to one another, on different levels, when looking for a mate. For example... I may love you, but I don't want to live in poverty. I may love you, but I don't want to marry a drunk. I may love you, but I don't want to marry a woman who hates children...

So I guess I'm a bit confused with the significance... ???
