by centuries of searching for better productivity, more profit, hence more consumption, which is what men do. Women instead have capacities that are of help in capturing seeds of change that are still alive such as:
a) capacity to grasp the wholeness of a situation other than the details, such as the feeling ill or well of a family:
b) capacity to act rapidly after rapidly grasping whole situations, such as stopping a child from falling out of a window;
c) capacity to change from one interest to others almost at the same time, ironing, reading, watching the child at play;
d) capacity to sacrifice herself for the good of others. This capacity has very often been ill used.
from René Wadlow: 8 March International Women's Day
