To ask for love from a woman is to ask for something she does not have. Men are the ones who offer love, and the only thing a woman can give in return is respect. Respect is different, it is the appropriate response to authority.      Man's authority comes from his individual ability; he is capable of providing not only for himself but also for several others. For a woman to provide for even herself, requires the presence of man and the constructs of man. She is not independent, as such it is her responsibility to respect the man who chooses to sustain her, lest he cast her out for her ungrateful character.      Here lies the crux: women have chosen to steal their sustenance from the overabundance of man's constructs, and in stealing, disrespected him, loosing his love and his protection. She has emulated that folly which brought down lucifer (also a possessor of great beauty) from on high, she has asserted herself as the authority of her own destiny, and in doing so she has lowered herself to crawl in dust on her belly, striking at the heel of the upright who justly tread upon her.     What is the truth that is Supreme in all this? That those who attempt to raise themselves above mans head by way of disrespect, loose not only his love, but also his resources.    She then refuses all responsibility for her actions and cries "why does the man deny me? Why has he gone away from me?"      My brothers, do not reward with love the songbird who pilfers your fields. Do not endear the flowered weeds that choke life from your garden.
