i keep meeting women that claim to be in touch with their "inner goddess" or show some sort of devotion or reverrence to the "goddess" or some general "feminine spirituality".
can we, as men, actively boycott these women to prevent their dna from infiltrating future women?

OP, I'd be more concerned with your dna infiltrating the general gene pool. Rather presumptous of you to pass judgement on something you obviously don't understand. Not to mention assuming that what is true of a few pagans is true for all. Imagine if all christians were judged by the actions of Jerry Falwell or Jim Bakker.

In the meantime, know what you're talking about before making such sweeping and completely insulting statements. And give your head a shake.

Heave ho, I tune out when I hear these phrases.. It's feminism at it's most perversly grandiose.. . But aside from that, it's boring.

I don't care when girls go on about it but can't take it seriously...

Some male friends of mine gave me this really cool necklace that says "Goddess of Strength". I told them how sweet I thought it was but I was hardly a goddess. They then replied that to them, a goddess is a woman of great inner strength and grace.

I can't say that I'm in touch with my 'inner goddess' but if someone wishes to refer to me as a goddess, I guess I can live with that.

If you wish to keep future women from becoming strong and graceful, perhaps we can boycott men to prevent their dna from infiltrating men with stupidity and ignorance.

I think it's just some women are suddenly becoming aware that thier womanly wiles are strong and beneficial to who they are. That being a woman is a positive and powerful thing!

"By honouring the Feminine Divine, we reconnect with our inner goddess. We empower ourselves spiritually, psychologically, emotionally and physically so our true selves are set free."


I found this simply by googling "Inner Goddess". I didn't even look around. It was the first link that came up.

Don't be afraid, delgado, I think that your apparent lack of resourcefulness, open-mindedness, acceptance, and good faith will keep any remotely empowered woman far, far away from you.

May your breeding weakness project fail utterly and miserably...

You don't see guys going around saying, i'm a God

Egads ! The moment a guy hears a woman describe herself as "princess" or "goddess" , he runs in the opposite direction. It screams "It's all about me !" to a guy.

Maybe the ladies view it differently than most guys do but just as a little FYI , it's a good way to scare off Mr. Right. The connotations are simply too powerfully embedded with those terms when used self-descriptively. Sorry but that's just how most guys (at least, the ones I know) see things.

So that's the question then : are some of you fine ladies conscious of the impact these terms have on your potential dating life ?

I don't think guys should be knocking women for considering themselves to be goddesses, etc. At least it shows that they have self confidence which many guys say is a turn on for them. If it bugs you then scope out a 300 pound woman who thinks next to nothing about herself.

Women calling themselves goddesses are merely reminding themselves of their inner strength. The confidence that comes from recognizing and utilizing your inner goddess -- or inner feminine power -- is amazing.

And sexy.

Plus, it can refer to the Mother God, if one believes in her. Which I do. But I won't discuss Her further in this particular forum; it's best for the religion section.

Women have been forced into submission for ages. There is nothing wrong with recognizing our feminine power and utilizing it -- just as there is nothing wrong with men utilizing their masculine power.

It's located a few inches into the vagina, and located on the upper wall, just below and behind the pubic bone. It has a ridged texture like the roof of your mouth and becomes swollen when stimulated or aroused. That's what the G stands for.

Perhaps you're right!!! I have never called mine a "goddess" though

Spelly......Good thing we don't have to worry about your genes entering the gene pool! whew!! I find the statement only irritating to those who really identify with being a goddess. Maybe YOU? HA!

liv222...I have never been exposed to the kind of women you are. Your fixation with your vaginas as spiritually DEVINE is indeed amusing. About like us guys cosidering our phallus as the symbol of power, domination and dominion over women as our God given right that can be proven by reading the christian Bible, WAKE UP! They are just glans meant for reproducton. Some have to have the nest and some one has to fertilize the eggs and as a species that has managed to exist our drive to procreate is stronger than our need for food! Jusdan

Jusdan, you don't have to worry about my genes entering the pool because they can't thanks to a ped my mother once dated. His actions damaged me enough that I'm unable to bear children. Thanks for reminding me.

I for one don't have a fixation with my vagina, but as a proud pagan woman, I do identify the divine ~ please note that it's spelled DIVINE ~ as female. Mother Earth has been around a lot longer than God, thus it's not really trendy. To restate what I said earlier, you can't judge all by the actions of a few.

I admit I get a little suspicious of women who name themselves "goddess-this" or "goddess-that" for their sn's, but if a man calls you a goddess, I'd think it is a compliment. I agree though, a goddess is a woman of great inner strength and grace.

After Dan Brown's "Da Vinci Code," the word goddess got real popular.

Well, can't say the Da Vinci Code had anything to do with my interest in the spirituality of the Goddess.

Spirituality is very individual and when trying to explain one's belief system to another it can get muddled up in the process.

And what's wrong with something tapping into their inner Goddess/Warrior/God/Totem or whatever you prefer to tap into? If it helps one to find spiritual strength, beauty and confidence which they use to enrich their lives and those around them--what's wrong with that? The Goddess spirituality is a means by which women have been able to find the beauty of the feminine and the female form and for some people it is very enriching. What's so different between that and someone who finds their spiritual centre through their church/place of worship/family religious traditions, etc.

women who refer to them self as a princess or a godess are just lazy and want some poor shmuk to do everything for them and take care of them for the rest of their lives. usually these girls are very hot. I guess because you have looks you think you can get away with murder. I have dated some of these girls and it usually last about one date.

Don't know how many times I have heard " I don't do laundry, I don't cook and I don't clean"

Good for you....................explain to me again what good you are???????

I don't say that cuz I need someone to do those things for me, I say it cuz I don't want to be the only one doing them!!

You've got quite an interesting mind there....Physical aspects have nothing to do with our power, though I'm sure there are ways of harnessing sexual power...Some people believe the orgasm is very potent and pure energy in itself...Hmmm...maybe I am fixated on my vagina after all....*Lol* (Ummm...I was being sarcastic with the last sentence.)

And I don't believe in the Bible, any of the 26 (?) versions? It was written by men with the intent to gain control over the masses and it worked wonders...and lead to the death of countless men, women, and children.
