This past week I started to think about the relationships
between people in committed relationships. And it made me wonder if someone in
the relationship has to be subordinate to the other. Does one have to be more
assertive or more logical rather than emotional? In all types of relationships
you see people trying to morph themselves into a mold of what they ought to be.
Could we have
relationships where there were no roles to be played? It seems like in our present
society that would be pretty far off. I don’t even know how we would get out of
this mind frame. But I guess it would start by having the conversation in the
first place. Which takes place in classes like the one we are taking now.
I think we are moving in the right direction in this
country. Now more than ever people are being able to be themselves without that
added pressure of being forced into a mold.
