is symbolically associated with the feminine. This is partly because all the things we have come to know were born, originally, of the unknown, just as all beings we encounter were born of mothers.
This is an exceptionally weak connection. I can forgive Plato for making straw man arguments as he wrote non-literally and 2000 years ago. My biggest problem with Peterson is his insistence of distinguishing masculine and feminine in this way. Not say there are not differences, but making these odd claims is simple reductive.
