If the masculine-feminine duality is the root of all war, it may be because it is the root of all fear. What is the original fear if not the fear of the Other? And because the Other is what is real, is it not the fear of reality? To be free of fear of the Other—in this case, the other sex—demands a return to original trust, which is more ancient than original fear. It means a return to Paradise, a return to the real in preference to the ideal and our ideas and representations of the Other.
War between the sexes.
Wonderful line of reasoning.
