> I equate giving with feminine energy and recieving as a masculine energy

> thus, the confusion. Can someone clarify this for me?

 

I suggest considering the masculine as " penetrating " , and the feminine as

" engulfing " .* Both can be active functions. This makes a more neutral context,

similar to the psychological concept of broad focus/ narrow focus. We are all

capable of both styles of organizing reality.

 

* " engulfing " is Starhawk's term. I don't remember who coined the broad/narrow

terms, which I think were meant as an adddition to the Myers-Briggs work.

 

Thanks, Dan
