This document discusses several topics related to understanding humanity, including masculinity, femininity, and the relationship between men and women. It notes that while science has provided explanations for many phenomena, people still struggle to understand fundamental human issues like life, death, leadership and sexuality. The document analyzes why men and women have difficulty understanding each other, and suggests they are drifting further apart. It provides historical examples of how women have often been viewed as inferior or excluded throughout much of the world.

ONE OF THE most intriguing-if not the most rewarding-fields of observation for the student of personality is the failure of mankind to deal with the problems of mas- culinity and femininity. The human species has solved many problems and, in spite of being a very inferior animal, by the ability to eliminate a number of natural obstacles, has arrived at the apex of the evolutionary pyramid, through the process of what PBre Teilhard de Chardin calls horninisation. We are becoming ever more confident that increased technological know-how in all as- pects of human endeavor, including B.F. Skinner's pet preoccupation, the controll- ing of man, will eventually lead to an un- precedented security in everyday life. Yet, wehave not solved problems issuing from the very essence of human existence. The problem we understand least is Man himself. The distinguished philosopher, Eliseo Vivas has written eloquently on be- half of the intrinsic value of man as a per- son? Man is not a thing, he asserts, and pleads for the scientific recognition of the unique nature of man. Ashley Montagu sees the problem from a different angle: from the point of relationships between persons.2 C.G. J ung maintained in one of his last works: that man is in dire need of discov- ering an integrated Self. I contend that we spend a lifetime in search of ourselves with more or less success4 and that mankind *does not even begin to understand the es- sence of human existence, the four great issues: life, death, leadership, and sexuality. We have created a chaos by not facing these issues squarely. This contention usual- ly meets with a resistant gunfire of learned objections which run something like this: "Ah, but science has answered most of the important questions connected with life, death, leadership, and sexuality. If people would only think about these issues in terms of scientific analysis, most of our problems would not exist." I beg to reply to these objections (smack- ing of wishful utopianism) that the trouble with living, pulsating people, existing out- side of laboratories seems to be that they prefer to live life instead of analyzing it. The fact that we seem to have scientific ex- planations of the phenomena of life does not make a whit of difference in our attitudes toward them. I agree with Ashley Montagu that (for example) we are quite inept in dealing with human relations, in spite of our democratic institutions and legislations.8 Modern Age 83 LICENSED TO UNZ.ORG ELECTRONIC REPRODUCTION PROHIBITED The attitude of scientism has spawned many an astounding statement from some very important (if not very wise) people. Only twenty-five years ago Stalin said: A single death is an incident of conse- qiience and pathos: death of a million is a matter of statistics.* One of the leaders of twentieth-century humanity hath spoken. We did not deal any more successfully with the issue of sexuality, or, more precise- I?, with the questions of masculinity and femininity. For we are just beginning to re- alize that, as far as the totality of human experience goes, masculinity and femininity encompass more than sex life. he history of man and his attitudes toward this simple fact shows pendulum-like fluctuations. Worn- en have been disdained, feared, wor- shipped, adored, avoided, fought and died for, detested, oppressed, emancipated-but ncver understood. The recent trend in our own culture to equalize women, i.e. to deny the differences between masculinity and temininity, has led only to more confusion, more artificiality and more anguish. Here, I a m trying to examine this confu- sion, the factors contributing to it, and com- pare my conclusions with those of the erni- nent Canadian psychiatrist, Dr. Karl Stern, whose book analyzes the same basic ques- tion: Why is i t that man and woman can- not understand each other as they should? Is there or is there not a feminine mystique, Mrs. Friedan notwithstanding? It is not that we need more and more scien- tific explanations. New sex surveys and marriage manuals are published al- most every month, dealing mostly with the technology of sexual relationships. On the one hand, many of us believe that never be- fore in history was there such a degree of sexual libertinism so widespread as in our times; on the other hand we read more and more animated, desperate pleas for more sexuaI enlightenment and freedom, more sexual rights. (What a delusion!) A finan- cially successful, aggressive, young editor- ~~~ ~ *As quoted by Lord Mornn in his diaries on Churchill, 1966. publisher has written his magnum opus, his Playboy philosophy, on this subject. He gives US nothing new beyond crying for more sexual liberation, as so many oth- er youngsters do, and a concomitant prosti- tution of the word philosophy. Frankly, I am confused. What can be meant by more liberation? In the days of miniskirts wom- en reveal as much of themselves and their underwear as the beholder can take in. Magazines, ladies journals, Sunday supple- ments are treating of sex openly and gush- ingly. Sex, sex everywhere-in cars, on college campuses, and even in churches. One of the deleterious effects of such con- trived freedom of discussion is that, like the miniskirt, they leave very little or noth- ing to the imagination. Yet, imagination and fantasy are very necessary ingredients for successful and satisfying sexual experi- ences. This mania of talking everything out, making everything completely reason- able and leaving nothing to the intricacies of fantasy but converting even our most in- timate feelings and emotions into public property is, of course, only a part of a ma- jor pattern that I call the sterilization of our psychic life.s Whatever the overall picture may be. the student of personality is still in search of the contributing faclors: What makes per- sons, individually or in the aggregate, think, feel, behave in this pattern? And we find that our earlier question, Why is it that man and woman cannot understand each other as they should? is compounded by a frightening realization, namely that, in addition to a lack of understanding, they are drifting apart, taking flight from each other. Alas, there is nothing new about it. The female was always held at arms length by the male (when not in her em- brace). Women were, and still are in some Oriental countries, considered inferior. On the Indian subcontinent women are se- cluded from the mainstream of life, from the really serious affairs of general male interest. The only difference between the Moslem and Hindu attitudes toward women is that in a Moslem culture women 84 Winter 1966-67 LICENSED TO UNZ.ORG ELECTRONIC REPRODUCTION PROHIBITED are both secluded and excluded, while in India they are secluded but not excluded. I n the classical Greek world Penel- ow was considered an outstanding femi- nine personality because of her fidelity and wifely virtue, and not because of her intel- lectual competence or physical prowess. Omnipotence was an exclusively male characteristic: Zeus needed no female to bear his favorite daughter, Pallas Athena. She, in turn, needed no maternal nurture to get her through a cumbersome and dependent childhood: she appeared fully grown, fully equipped, complete with her Aegis. Creation was the act of a male god in all mythologies, theologies, and primitive cosmogonies. Psychologically, these archetypal symbols convey not SO much the inferiority of woman as her na- ture, different from the males and there- fore mysterious to men of all ages and cultures. All attempts in history to equalize woman have resulted in neutralization, consequently in failure, because the aim of woman is inferior to man. Ashley Montagu, however, insists that women are the bio- logically more valuable part of the species capital for reasons that should be obvious. We should acknowledge that woman is dif- ferent, not inferior. Differences are not quantitative concepts, superiority and iyfe- riority are. Differences are qualitative val- ue concepts. The history of mankind indicates that the male mind cannot deal adequately with values. Over the centuries we have been taught the original badness of man, and aggression, competition, destruc- tion, and conquest have become distinguish- ing hallmarks of masculinity. We rejoice when our little boy shows aggression on the ballfield, and egg him on when he is in a competitive situation. Should our eight- year-old he-man turn out to be less aggres- sive and more docile than our preconceived idea of maleness would warrant, we berate him for being a sissy. We forget, of course, that true masculinity consists of the integra- tion of strength and tenderness. I I equalization was based on the delusion that Ambivalence toward women is not only proverbial, it is archetypal. Even where women were not despised or avoided, they were at least held in suspicion, not to be trusted. Motherly, understanding, allur- ing, forgiving perhaps, but potentially dan- gerous and destructive. From ancient or contemporary goddesses with whimsical, unpredictable natures, to Rider Haggards She or Keats La Belle Dame S m Merci, they all express this archetype of ambiv- alent feelings toward women. The Hun- garian proverb: Mans fate is woman and the French hint: Cherck lu femme, along with the concept of ;femme fatale constantly remind us how formidable woman may be. At the same time, we may reflect that of all spoken languages it is on- ly in Hungalrian that we find the equivalent of wife to be, in literal translation, my other half (fezeskg). I t @ves us food for thought. Fright leads to either fight or flight. The war between the sexes may be a threadbare cliche but a reality, nevertheless. The se- clusion, exclusion, and outright oppression of women are one outcome of this war, with the victorioue male brooking no nonsense. Some educated Pakistani explained to me why they keep their women in purdah (be- hind walls or curtains) and excluded from public life. I was puzzled by this during the seven years of my living in that country. Since I found no explanation in the Koran, I had interviewed a great number of intelli- gent males and their answers were almost verbatim unanimous, as if by conspiracy: We believe in decent life. We want to deal with temptation thoroughly and pre- ventively. If you do not see the women, YOU do not get indecent impulses toward them. That is why we hide them. They are our property and we guard our property: The second half of the statement took care of the question of exclusion. Western man, however, should not cast stones at Orientals for such an attitude. Not SO long ago our women had no voting right, no property right, could not hold public of- fice or enter certain professions. Milady Modern Am 85 LICENSED TO UNZ.ORG ELECTRONIC REPRODUCTION PROHIBITED wore long and heavy dresses to conceal her figure, and any decent Victorian woman would categorically deny possessing thighs, legs or knees or that she perspired. As late as World War 11, Lady Churchill (then Mrs. C.) remarked wistfully that men may seem eager to light a ladys ciga- rette but they never listen to what women have to say.* On the other side the war of the sexes has produced the emancipated, phallic woman. Industrial, scientific, psychological, and political revolutions inevitably effected the liberation of women. One of the ear- liest, most militant promises toward the equalization of women may be read in the Communist Manifesto (1848). The whole- sale liberation of women occurred early in the Soviet Union and more recently in China in a truly masculine fashion. Now women in those countries are free to bear not only children but also arms, to shovel snow in city streets and to do heavy labor in factories. Only in comparatively old-fashioned, outlying kolchoses, though, do women pull the plows, with the men holding the reins. I hold that the emancipation or equaliza- tion of women has led to their masculiniza- tion, with a more or less complete concur- rent emasculation of men. Comic strips like Blondie and shows like Ozzie and Harriet are not only catering to public taste: they are the creations of public taste. Most tele- vision advertising reveal femina trium- phans placing her dainty foot on the just- felled stone-age brute: most husbands are Flintstones, shown as bumbling idiots who can be knocked over with just a dash of fe- male supremacy. It is the omniscient mother or wife who knows not only the right bleach but who can select, on scientific basis, the correct toothpaste (uniting the family again) ; the husband is incompetent, he in- variably selects brand X. Yes, all this may be fantasy on the screen. But it is modern woman who is parading her equality in the I , *As mentioned by Lord Moran in his diaries on Churchill, 1966. trousers stolen from man. No healthy male ever appears at a supermarket in skirts (al- though the fad or long hair is catching!). Are the emancipated women who now even shed the feminine mystique happier, healthier, and more stable ; are they enjoy- ing their independence and their denuded femininity more than their enslaved sis- ters were able to? Are men and wom- en closer to each other, more comfortable?s The reader may answer these questions for himself, bearing in mind that the over- whelming majority of the more than 500, 000 Americans currently treated in mental hospitals are women. Two-thirds of old-age home residents are lonely women, females surviving men 3 to 1. The divorce rate is still increasing and the chorus of discontent is heard all over the land. The effects of psychological enlighten- ment run parallel to the political upheavals of socialism in statu nuscendi. Freud, who had a generally pessimistic view of human- ity, has given the world a model of feminin- ity that strikes many of us as a malignant caricature. Some of his theories concerning female sexuality are museum-pieces now, in the merciless light of recent re- search. They are at best fatuous and repre- sent the Achilles-heel of orthodox physcho- analytic theory (like the two kinds of fe- male orgasm, etc.). All said and done, Freuds portrait of woman is that of a hos- tile, frustrated creature, bereft of manhood, hence forever envious. Her relationship to man is that of constant hostility and compe- tition: her revolt is inevitable. Helene Deutsch, a Freudian and a woman, has on- ly slightly mitigated the dismal picture with her statement that the essence of woman- hood is passivity in contrast to the stormy activism of the male. The first medical psychologist who has attempted to illuminate the mysteries of femininity was C. G. J ung. With help from his wife, Emma, herself an eminent psychologist, he did not bog down in the mere physiology of female sexuality but explored the psychological differentiation of male and female. He did not pretend to 86 Winter 1966-67 LICENSED TO UNZ.ORG ELECTRONIC REPRODUCTION PROHIBITED understand the mystery. He, of all people, had a healthy respect for the mysteri- ous and knew very well that mysteries are not understood by the rational mind: that is why they are mysteries. But he had the honesty and courage, i n addition to an inquiring mind, to study rather than sweep under the rug the two kinds of knowledge: rational and i nt~i ti ve.~ His concept of the archetype of femininity, the Anima, sym- bolizes the intuitive, while in women the corresponding Animus, or rational part of the personality, is in a more or less de- veloped state of awareness. J ung conceives of masculinity and femininity as opposites, or polarities, but he insists that the relation- ship of the opposites is not necessarily hos- tile but potentially cooperative and cre- ative. Neither represents completeness with- out the other? Relations become hostile if the male represses the feminine princi- ple (in females the reverse applies) too long or too consistently. Then the pent-up unconscious components, symbolized by the Anima or Animus, assert themselves in the most embarrassing way, hostile to the ego, and produce moody, unreliable, hysterical males and the stiff, frigid, opinionated fe- males whom the Freudians as well as pulp magazines call the phallic woman. Thus J ung has called attention to the age-old simple truth that woman is different from man but not inferior to him: they comple- ment each other. I quote his most beautiful statement from memory: Man takes the world by storm. Woman becomes conscious of the world by awakening. More subtle and refined than the crude assertion that woman is either envious and hostile or exclusively passive and humble-as if hu- mility were a crime or at least a mis- demeanor. Vivas, Montagu, J ung, and many others have at least one endeavor in common: the search for a satisfactory theory of man as a person and not a thing. This, however, is not possible without recognizing the validity of poetic-intuitive modes of knowledge, rep- resented by the feminine principle as an in- tegral part of the human personality. Now Karl Stem has joined the ranks of these dis- tinguished thinkers by virtue of his message in The Flight from Woman. He presents a number of original theses, hard facts and arguments not so much on behalf of or in defense of women as in quest of an integrated view of the human person- ality (which is not a sex-linked concept). Dr. Stems work, in my view, contributes much toward the clearing of the jungle of present-day behavioral sciences which Pro- fessor Vivas so justly criticizes? More than that: this work helps us to reflect and clari- fy our thinking on the four great issues of life, death, leadership, and sexuality. Sterns book is an example of clear, quiet style, based on sound medical princi- ples without being annoyingly clinical-a rare gift for a psychiatrist. The psychiatric connoisseur no less than the lover of belles lettres or biographies may find delight in this book, provided he keeps an open mind to accommodate a number of original ideas. Even the amplification of some theories of J ung is the product of a discerning mind in a personality who has gone through unique experiences during and after World War 11. These have given him a singularly deep insight into his own nature as well as into the nature of his fel- low humans. We know this from Dr. Sterns earlier writings such as The Pillar of Fire and Through Dooms of Love. Many critics may say many things about Stern and his work; they may raise some objections to his views and theories and the way he presents them (such as that he is mystic, sentimen- tal, and a mentalist, etc.) but none can say that he is not genuine. He shows the characteristic that I consider to be the only legitimate excuse for human authori- ty: authenticity. Stern postulates a polarity between man and woman and insists that this polarity is not hostile but complementary, thus re- inforcing and amplifying some of Jungs theories which, fifty years ago, represented a sharp departure from the Freudian dog ma of woman. The polarity exists with- in the phenomenological and ontological Modem Age 87 LICENSED TO UNZ.ORG ELECTRONIC REPRODUCTION PROHIBITED unit wecall Man, is inherent in his person- ality and is a conditio sine qua non of inte- gral completeness. The idea has solid scien- tific grounding in the inevitable biological fact of sexual differentiation, which, the au- thor says, has been more or less deliberately overlooked or ignored in psychology. He takes issue with the second sex attitude of very antithesis of her writings because, con- trary to Mlle. de Beauvoir, he argues that the differences between male and female are real, biologically as well as psycholog- social conditioning. He assures us that contrary to what George Sand or Simone de Beauvoir believes, biology is not a mat- ter of an instrumentarium of circumscribed purpose. Sterns purpose here is not to defend women. He feels they do not need defend- ing. What they need is recognition of the feminine principle in a world that has al- most succeeded in sterilizing modern life of anything that is beautiful, poetic and in ap- parent contradiction to pure reason, what- ever that may be. Sterns thesis is germane to the issues we touched upon earlier in this review: that we cannot even begin to under- stand the persistent problems of human ex- istence until we acknowledge the polarity of the sexes as reflected in the conflict of the two modes of knowledge: scientific or rational and poetic or intuitive. He suggests that the continuous human predicament is aggravated by a lopsided, rationalistic, ag- gressively activist attitude. It is as if femi- ninity did not exist, or if it does, it is non- sensical and inimical to rationality and technicality, therefore useless. Freud, Ad- ler, Sand, and de Beauvoir all fall into this trap, their sincere endeavors to understand woman notwithstanding. Contemplation, lis- tening to the inner voice, is regarded as a feminine trait now, yet Stem says: Uniqueness and sanctity of the human person can be grasped only by contempla- tion. A good response to Vivas plea,12 I think. The alternative is defeminization, alienation and depersonalization of our I I Simone de Beauvoir, indeed, his work is the I ically determined and not the products of l I lives with an increase of programming of human affairs, so that we live in a world of slow and noiseless violence. He asserts that the concept of equality is in danger of becoming sameness and if that becomes complete, an immanent prin- ciple of order is lost. Oppugnancy will re- sult. He traces modem mans loss of his precious psychological faculties, namely faith and trust (pistis), to this attitude of oppugnancy. He treads his way deftly between the ex- tremes of the stainless steel world of mas- culinity and the gilded rococo ornamenta- tions of femininity when documenting the psychological differences between the sexes. To illustrate and amplify his points he scans centuries of world literature, cul- tural history, and symbolism with an ease of erudition that I thought had died out with J ung. One could take issue, I suppose, with Dr. Sterns interpretation of the English word helpmate. On p. 147 the author asserts that the phallic woman . . . cannot be a helpmate. He considers helpmate to be a beautiful expression. I t is, but it derives from a misreading of the English Bible (A.V.). The term used there is help meet (Genesis, 2:18). Meet, from O.E. gernrete, conveys the sense of fitting, suitable, appro- priate, somewhat different in meaning from Mate which is a M.E. word, derived from a different root, meaning an equal, counterpart, one of a pair, a constant associate or companion such as a spouse or the second-in-command of a ship. But whatever the derivations or interpretations, Sterns point is well taken: Woman, bereft of femininity, transformed into what the Freudians call the phallic woman, is not able to play her r61e as woman; indeed she loses her most powerful asset: feminine humility. In addition, she loses her man be- cause of direct or indirect emasculation. I call this the Delilah complex. Stern pre- sents the case of Descartes as the victim of Sterns method of supporting his con- tentions and propositions with psycho- castrating women. 66 88 Whter 196667 LICENSED TO UNZ.ORG ELECTRONIC REPRODUCTION PROHIBITED biographical studies is in the best tradition of the idiographic approach. In his psycho- graphs of Descartes, Schopenhauer, Sartre, Tolstoy, Kierkegaard, and Goethe, he spans centuries and traces a sorry, declining curve of mans spirit. The line begins with Descartes, continues downward to despair with Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, Hegel, Marx, Freud, and ends i n the here and now with Sartre. The common denominator of these lives is a tragic paradox: the flight from woman whom these +sons were constantly searching for. Their lives and some aspects of their work remind us of the folk song: Sometimes I feel like a mother- less child. Of all psycho-biographical sketches I enjoyed Goethes most, not only because the gigantic personality of this great polyhistor is brought out in vivid, art- ful detail, but because, through Goethe and his Paust, Dr. Stem supports his con- clusions most convincingly, namely that the essential aspects of personality resist ob- jectification-and I may add, defy quan- tification and reification. Personality means more than the sum of its component parts: the person is a historical being.13 Historical continuity is preserved only by the eternal feminine, that mysterious cement that binds the disparate particles of hard scientific facts together as one gestalt. Goethe wrote with the finality O true insight: Bas ewig Weibliche zieht uns hinan. Dr. Sterns book is not a work that dis- penses panacea. In the tradition of the true and seasoned physician he suggests rather than forces the solution on his patient hu- manity.

Shaw, in his essay on The Quintessence of Ibsenism (1913) re- gards Hedda Gabler as a typical ni ne teenth-century figure and tries to make political hay out of her character for the Fabian Socialists, Dr. Stern interprets her as one representative of the aggressive women of whom we have so much first-hand experience these days, both in fiction and in reality. Hedda Gabler is the female who, hogging the road in her gadg- et-ridden pseudo-sports car, her Medusa- head in giant curlers, is ready to im- pale anybody who crosses the path of her weapon-car. She is the phallic woman. I n our world of scientism, smartness rules and wisdom is neglected. Pallas Athena (or her early Eastern Christian counterpart, Sophia) is either dead or sleeping, We, the living, prefer to think with Dr. Stern that the heart open to infused wisdom remains the heart of immutable virginity and hope that this essential, eternal femininity is only sleeping behind the seemingly impenetrable thorny walls of aggressive intolerance, im- personal power struggle and poisonous in- difference. The question for us, the living, and for the future of humanity is this: Will the miracle recur? Will the mystery be re- enacted? Will Prince Charming come in the glory of his strength and tenderness and cut through the thicket to kiss Sophia, the sleeping beauty, into awakening? Will Kalokaguthia rise again? Reviewed by Z.
