Acharya Prashant: What if you were never, never trained in womanhood? How would you live? You can’t even think because right now, every bit of you is a trained bit. How do you know that a woman must have long hair? How do you know? That’s how it is! Nine out of ten do have long hair. And it has now, as I said, percolated right into the instincts. So, it becomes instinctive for a little girl to have long hair. So much so that it appears that it’s a part of her genetic code, that it’s written somewhere in her genes that she must have long hair. Left to herself, with no social intervention or occupation upon her mind, would she still prefer to have long hair? Maybe only as much as a boy would prefer to have long hair, maybe she would! But then boys too would probably prefer to have long hair, to an equal, more or less equal extent. But see how binary it has become. You can look at somebody's back and tell his or her gender. The hair! Not even the back is needed, just the bust from the behind.
Men and women are different. Their biology makes them different. But what we have is a hyper-genderization. What we have is a hyper-sexualization. The differences are there, but little. Society has hyper-inflated those differences. The woman has been turned into a hyper-woman and a man has been turned into a hyper-man. And you must know why, because when the differences are great, then the attraction is also great. And that gives more carnal pleasure. If there is not much difference, then sexuality is natural, healthy, not overblown, not hyped up, not very spicy. But when you create a huge difference between man and woman, then you know the extent of titillation it offers.
Now for the man, the woman is totally an unknown thing. She is so different as if she is from another galaxy and for the woman, man too is a very, very different thing. She has no idea of being what she is, being turned into what she has been. She just cannot know what the man- thing is all about because now the man is doing all the stuff that is outside the province of her idea. The result is a great attraction. Great attraction, and that gives you hyper-tantalization.
