Gender of Nature: Mother Earth

Natural sex: Mother Earth "Earth likes to feel bare feet, the hair is blowing for a long time" - The prophet Kahlil Gibran has no more gentle voice than his mother. In the womb we stopped at the warmth of warmth and heard every noise made by the mother. I just can not hear her voice. I feel the vibration and low humming throughout my ear and molded body. There is no doubt that this is the only voice that can comfort us with the suffering of our new small life.

Even though we have conquered the power of the earth over decades, American children have been taught to call the environment "the mother of nature". Because we insist that our idea is a satisfying example, the Earth is the image of the parent. However, we do not learn as children, usually we are not taught as older, harm caused by gender and sexist languages ​​exacerbates the stereotype and hierarchy of gender. Many traditional traditions such as Greek god Gaia and Inca goddess Paca mama respect women's spiritual incarnation, but most literature we heard about mother nature has no spiritual background . This word has been separated from the accompanying tradition and belief system, so ideologies that actually do not respect women and do not weight nature attract very meaningful terms.

And although the term "nature" is derived from a spiritually rich tradition, it represents the dual use of all people who are not as good as patriarchal society men. Therefore it is expected that both will be permanently used for them, will accept and fill their desires. As long as the cause of gender repression is rooted in the apparent intimacy of women and nature, this view is another reason why women and the earth are on different planes from men.

In myths of ancient and maternal clans, women are the origin of fertility and life, forgiveness and compassion. Women were the first farmers and seed collectors on the planet and the survival of the tribe depended on their activities, so the ancients bound the concept of women to the earth. Therefore, in addition to their natural role, human continuity is in the hands of women. And women worship this sex as a goddess and constantly seeks support from her. At that time, women had a social, political and economic position superior to men (21). Our predecessors believe that women are the source of life and the source of life because of their fertility. Therefore, in some ancient times, the generation of offspring was attributed to the mother. Even among Elamite, there is no maternity system, but people use their mother's or mother's name instead of their father's name to introduce themselves (20)
