Why Women Should Run the World

NOW MORE THAN EVER

The global peril of a pandemic provided an unparalleled opportunity for we humans to take stock of our situation, and then take control of our emissions, and then awaken into something better and stronger for having done so. 

It didn’t happen. Yet. But it is happening. And this conscious evolutionary leap forward in our species’ history is being led by women. And because we find ourselves up against some mightily determined status quo forces, with a thousand fracking wells on our necks, it’s taking longer than it should have. It is no small task this, this species rebirthing  

But Women are Earth’s and Humanity’s natural born leaders for many reasons. Because only women give birth, only women are continuous and thus hardwired for compassion and empathy. Men do not have this physically innate connection to his offspring.

It seems a more feminine paradigm of leadership must become the guiding energy of our local and global governments. 

This was the objective Bucky suggested we adopt: 

“To make the world work for 100% of all humanity, through spontaneous cooperation, without ecological harm or to the disadvantage of anyone.”

To help make this happen, more women must find the courage to speak up and become the leaders you were meant to be.

Buckminster Fuller wrote in McCall’s Magazine in 1968 that woman’s rightful places was as leader, and that indeed a feminine paradigm of leadership was essential to humanity’s future.

Read Bucky’s ambitiously drawn portrait from fifty years ago about where we must go, and then prepare yourself to be part of a delightful and transformative evolutionary leap. Start talking. Start writing. Start telling anyone who will listen that better days are coming.

PS This will require dismantling outdated industries that are fighting for their right to put profits ahead of human welfare. Buckle up. Rough roads ahead.

Humans are evolving. Quickly. Our choice is between oblivion and utopia. A middle road isn’t likely.

I love speaking about ideas for achieving humanity’s success, which were passed on to me in 1982 by American genius Buckminster Fuller. Bucky’s ideas and integrities reflect subtle shifts in thinking necessary to help humanity find a more sustainable path to the future. Or at least to know we were leaning in the right direction.

    1. I wholeheartedly agree, Michael, but I do wish things were moving a bit faster. This race to the finish is crazy, isn’t it? Real life beating all fiction ever written. You can’t make this stuff up. Bucky would be hopeful now, I think. He’d say we were in the emergency that was going to produce our emergence as a new species. And that women, and all those who think like women, were going to be the ones to make it happen. Unfortunately, as you can see above, I did something stupid and accidentally deleted the full post. More to come. Thanks for your comments. Hope you are well.
