Far too many women are willing to believe that a role for a thinking woman already exists when ’his’-story shows that such a role does not exist, nor has it ever existed. American universities did not change their curriculums because large numbers of working-class females showed up in the mid-1960s. Consequently, women came out of ’state’ systems of higher education prepared to do our versions of white boys because that’s what everyone was taught to do. I can run with the big dogs because I have, but I want to make the case for a ’role’ worthy of an intelligent woman in the home where children grow. The ’role’ would give the Feminine a valid place in Western culture and everyone access to a new power source. But, I Don’t Want To Be A White Man When I Grow Up, speaks as frankly as possible about how such a ’role’ can be created, and what it could mean to America’s future in the global community.For the first time in the American experience half the women of childbearing age are unmarried and no one is contemplating what this means. Human procreation deserves no less than the attention given to disappearing polar bears and glaciers the size of Vermont falling in the ocean. We get bent out of shape about young women taking pregnancy out of the context of marriage without examining what might be wrong with 'marriage.' This writing endeavor is my best effort to address this situation from where I was standing in the circumstances that created it. I don’t pretend to have all the answers for what’s happening to our young people. I want to argue for coming together to examine the merits of the answers I do propose, and possibly come up with even better ones.
