The Ascent of the Working Woman Jr James R Fisher

THE ASCENT OF THE WORKING WOMAN is not new. Indeed, it is as old as time, as women have always been the measure of the health and well-being of society, not men. Women have led without power using their guile to influence men when men were often otherwise occupied to the point of walking off the cliff and into the abyss. Women have been forced by social protocol to be mainly obliging listeners and supportive partners to men, who traditionally have held the power. This has forced women to traditionally assume a passive role to men to realize a significant economic and social advantage. When women have acquired power, however, and this is increasingly the case, they have been less inclined to "strut their stuff" in mocking imitation of male self-aggrandizement. Instead, they have been more disposed to husband their resources in the clearly difficult climb to financial equity giving rather than taking credit along the way. That said the working woman is as capable of rational thinking and timely decision-making as is the working man, while making no apologies for complementing her thinking with insight from instinct and intuition. The paradoxical reality of the times is that she finds herself married to the same machine that now dominates the working man.
