Dissertation on a Testosterone Based Life Form

Well now, once again we are venturing into the psyche of a Superhero known as Mister Man, Daddy G., Book God, Jediwannabe, and Magical Mentor. Let's break down each character and their respective strengths and weaknesses.

Mister Man is the epitome of all that is stereotypically male. His superpower is the ability to do as little as possible and yet seem like he has done so much. This is an amazing feat because it manages to recharge and happen again and again at will. There is a never-ending supply of "honey-do" evasive techniques at his disposal. In complement to this technique, Mister Man comes with "delusions of grandeur" especially when it comes to the opposite sex. This natural delusion forces him to wonder just what services he could provide every estrogen based life form that comes into range. The depth of this "delusion" is infinite and stories of these services are shared frequently with other Testosterone Teammates. Finally, Mister Man is gifted with "Malady of Measure", this is the one shared trait of all Mister Mankind where somehow their perception of size doesn't quite mesh with standards of measure. The greatest weakness of Mister Man is his need to be desired and admired almost incessantly. Just a simple word or glance can distract him from any of his gifts/superpowers. He handles Moody Mom and Whiny Wife on a daily basis and frequently uses his "Selective Hearing" to ensure he is unscathed by their wrath.

Daddy G. has the best superpowers of all. The "Confidence Instiller" is utilized to ensure the future Mister Men are equipped to handle all the mental stresses of the future. "Requisite Repertoire" ensures the future Daddies are provided with testosterone appropriate reading materials, toys and clothing (usually not coordinating) when the time is right. Daddy G. frequently possesses "Childlike Display" where he emulates the children's jealousy of Mommy time. The "Form meets Function" is a male-only trained technique that makes bodily functions almost competitive. Also, it is well known that proper execution of this technique can cause "Emotional Exit" and "Harrumph Hostility" to happen in estrogen based life forms. This is a frequently used technique and underrated as well. Daddy G.'s weakness is his need to live out his own dreams through his children and the requirement to hide any disappointments where applicable so as not to deter the "Confidence Instiller".

Book God reads all that is science fiction, super heroic, fitness oriented or contains pictures of scantily clad women. Book God runs in a constant state of mental sponge, trying to soak up more and more information in hopes of defining why, how or even can I?. Book God contributes to all the other superpowers in that it can provide psychological stimulation, emotional outlet and even income. His useless trivia recollection technique is amazingly useful for social encounters and developing rapport.

Jediwannabe is the storage of all that is dreamed. A power over one's own world, an all-inclusive club of philosophical fortitude and the ability to evoke change in a positive manner. The key to this is the fact that they really have to do very little to accomplish such a great deal creates a perfect symbiosis with Mister Man. A necessary bit of fantastic faith that there could be such a thing is what keeps this character centered.

Magical Mentor enables testosterone based life forms to find magic in something and actually integrate it into their lives, both professional and personal. One thing that they feel absolute passion and conviction for and that they sacrifice in other areas to preserve. These range from family traditions, nicknames, make-believe, and a commitment to a philosophy of fun. Whereas estrogen will tend to take on burden and have the need occasionally to download, Magical Mentor downloads everyday and eliminates burden by perpetuating magic. If only we could infiltrate this power into EVERY Testosterone Teammate. Passion is contagious and if properly motivated...oh the changes in the world we could make.

All of the above characters are at risk of political emasculation due to our current need to make everything equal. Let's summarize here...things are NOT equal, are NOT MEANT to be equal and if everything ever IS "equal", how sad that we will have set into motion our own annihilation.The natural design of Estrogen based life forms to complement and support Testosterone based life forms is necessary to provide emotional balance and to ensure the future of the human race. Let us not forget "form and function", "cause and effect" and "all things in moderation".

Note: This dissertation was written by the super heroine previously documented, so any similarities to other individuals was graciously accepted in good humor (I hope.).

We will only see briefly if they do, before we slowly die off as a species. I am not anti feminism in theory, but I am anti dictatorial feminism in reality. The design of balance is there for a reason. We cannot disrupt that balance. Not saying females are not mentally equal, just not equal period.
