Godess


There is a curious phenomenon in the Femdom scene of men wanting to worship Women as Goddesses. And outside of this scene dominant Women also find men coming to them who want to devote their whole lives in serving and worshipping them.

So we have to ask the question; why? Why would men who have ruled and dominated society and Women want to suddenly worship, adore and serve Women? Logically it makes no sense. Men have had the upper hand in relationship between the sexes for thousand of years, so why should men then suddenly want to be Women's servants and slaves?

The only answer I have found about this is in Jungian psychology. Carl Jung put forward the concept of archetypes. So for instance many men tune into the hero archetype; of wanting to risk injury or even death to help and save others. But in the many archetypes, he discovered one of the most powerful archetypes was that of the Mother. He found that this archetype was very ancient going back to the Stone-Age where people then believed that the whole world was born from the body of a Creatrix they called, The Great Mother.

The idea of people worshipping a male god is very new. It seem this began about five thousand years ago at the end of the Stone-Age, when the first images of male deities were discovered. Before then, archaeologist and paleontologists have only discovered images of females. Now the Stone -Age goes back hundreds of thousands of years. Compared with just the five thousand years we began to worship gods. So would explain why the archetype of the Great Mother is so powerful. Because for hundreds of thousands of years human beings have accepted that the Creatrix was female. This in turn, meant, that people came to accept that Women represented the Great Mother on this Earth. This must of given Women great status and power in Stone- Age communities, and men learnt to worship and serve Women as Goddesses.

Then suddenly about five thousand years ago this suddenly stopped. Men took control of civilizations all over the world through violence. Why this happened we do not really know. But it could be that Women themselves may of undermined the power they had over men. They may of thought it unfair that men were worshipping them as Goddesses and began to teach men equality of the sexes.

A BAD MOVE....
