It has been a pleasure to reading your writing. I greatly appreciate pagan view of the world, although I am a Christian. I do note that wether you are right, other religions are right, or I am right; any god worthy of worship should not care wether anyone worships him (or her if you think), as long as we act with compassion with each other. And if the atheists are right, then it does not matter; except for what your conscience dictates.
But I digress from my question/concern. Why do you feel if is important to use the word ‘male’ when referring to human males, a term that can be applied to all of the animal kingdom as well; but use the word women when referring a human female, a term exclusively used to denote a human female. I feel it is much more appropriate to use the word man when referring to Human male, as this properly denotes our dignity in the human species, as it is appropriate to use the woman for human females. What do you thing?

Yes! 'You do this thing for a while, and then you never get lonely again.'
Exactly. So beautiful to hear this put so clearly.
