When
you
fail
in
love
for
the
first
time,
it
’
s
a
very
serious
moment
in
your
life.
When
people
refer
to
early
romantic feelings with
such terms as
“
puppy
love
”
or
“
having a
crush
”
they have simply
forgotten
what
it
’
s
like
—
they are
failing to perceive
0
how
powerful and significant the
experience
are
. Not only does
your first love
change your life
forever
; it also reveals
patterns of romantic behavior that are likely
to
be
present in
all your
future love
relationships
as well.
If your
first experience of love filled you with energy
and gave you the
incentive
to explore new areas of life,
you
’
ll probably always seek
romantic partners who are both demanding and
giving.
If .on the
other
hand
, your first romance left you
feeling awkward and unable to express yourself,
you will most
likely
look
for
partners
with
whom
you
fool
safe
and
comfortable.
And
who
the
object
of
your
first
romantic
feeling was
can
also
be
revealing
.
Was
it
someone
nearby ,
your
own
age,
that
you
could
share
interests
and
activities with?
This
is a sign that you
expect love as a natural
consequence
of who you are.
If your first love was
someone remote
----a film star, for
example
—
you may always get
more satisfaction from
earning
0
love than from
receiving love. Or perhaps your first
romantic feelings were for
someone
“
in
between
”
: remote, but not
absent;
near
you,
but
not
like
you---
an
English
teacher,
for
instance.
This
is
a
sign
of
a
person
committed
to
self-improvement and so surely a
glorious
and rewarding
romantic future.

Real
feminists
can
tell
you
that
the
only
way
to
ensure
equality
is
through
genetic
engineering.
Women
everywhere still suffer
of
economic injustice, social
injustice and --- most significant --- physical
injustice. This is
where genetic
engineering is
urgent
to
feminism. The way things are now, too few women
feel truly sure of their
physical
safety. All that
protects
most women from
physical force
have
the so-called social
contract. This is not
enough. Why
should half the population enjoy physical safety
as a form of
charm
, while
the other half enjoys it as
a natural
instinct
? Men who argue that
laws can
compensate
for this
inequality can
’
t imagine
what it
’
s like to be
have
to defend yourself. This lifelong lack
of
instinct
in something as
basic as physical safety gives rise
to
major
psychological
barriers
in
equality. How can
a person feel equal when she lives
her
entire
life with the knowledge
of
stronger
creatures
are
in
control?
How
can
she
feel
truly
free
to
complete
with
them,
ignore
to
them
or
disagree with them, all
the time knowing they could suddenly
threaten
her if she
isn
’
t nice? Sure, women can
learn self-defense or carry guns, but
that
can
’
t
the same as trusting in your own safety.
What
women really need
is a breakthrough in genetic
engineering to ensure that both
males
are equal in physical
strength right from the
cradle.
3 If you want to develop
the senses of your mind, there are many simple and
enjoyable exercise that can help you.
The first step is to
arouse
your physical senses
so you can experience them
eventually
.
Let
’
s start with food
---either a food you
especially
like, or a food
you
’
ve grown
weary
of because you eat
it
too often. Begin
by
closing your
eyes and focusing on
its
smell. Breathe it in deeply, and imagine: if this
smell
were
a perfume, what
name would you give it? Now go on
to taste
the dish --- but not
as you usually do! Put a
small
amount
on the tip
of your tongue and notice how the taste
buds
there respond. More the
food
along
the side and back
of your
tongue and
ponder
the differences. Find
a word for each flavor you experience, but try to
refrain
0
from using
everyday
terms
like
“
sweet
”
or
“
salty
”
.
If
this
were
a
song
in
your
mouth,
what
kind
of
song
would
it
be?
Once
you know, you can go on
--- but don
’
t eat any more
yet! First pay attention
to
how
your mind is responding
to the food. Notice your
mood
----do you feel more
hopeful, relaxed or serious than before? Or just
hunger?
