#Anthropocene + #Ecocide (the killing of ecosystems) + "culture in the direction of competitive aggressiveness rather than social cooperation."... #Quote 

"Rosemary Radford Ruether (1936- ) wrote her wonderful ‘New Woman New Earth’ in 1975...

"Ruling class males preserve and extend a hunter and warrior mystique of maleness into the civilized era, when it should have become obsolete, biasing all the development of culture in the direction of competitive aggressiveness rather than social cooperation. It is perhaps not too much to say that the Achilles’ heal of human civilization, which today has reached global genocidal and ecocidal proportions, resides in this false development of maleness through repression of the female."

(Rosemary Radford Ruether 1975).

There is a politics, especially a sexual politics, to ecocide as well its cultural and emotional dimensions."
