Our World Of Mini-Worlds That We Live In

[Digging4Truth]

I'm going to present a thought and just see what others think about it.

I think that some of the problems in our society could possibly come from the world we have now that allows each different group their own little "world".

Don't tell anybody that the "Ladies Tea" thread got my mind moving on this... but it has been brewing for years for other reasons.

The first thing is this...

Why don't kids grow up? Why are young people so defiant (although this is not the word I am looking for). Does any of it come from the fact that we provide them their own "world" growing up and they see themselves as whole and complete in their setting rather than having a desire to grow up and begin to have things of their own?

There are kids styles
There are kids shows that show the kids as wise and elders as unaccomplished nitwits.
There are many elements like this that make kids feel like they are somehow experiencing life when all they are experiencing is a microcasm of life that has been funded by those unaccomplished nitwits they call adults.

When we grow older there are "womens worlds" & "mens worlds".

Women have teas and other frilly estrogen laiden get togethers (which are probably alright from time to time as long as we realize that this isn't "Finally" real life... but an aside from the same).

Men have their man caves and focus on everything sports etc.

So we all live in our different little worlds. What does that do? That makes each of us unsatisfied with the real world and causes us all to seek for release from the conglomerate world that contains the whole of humanity and seek out our little microchasms that support the one part of humanity that we are.

Of course the existence of our individual microchasms of who we are is what intensifies the "others" desire to seek out a world where just "who I am" is in existence for a few hours. Ie... a Ladies Tea will make a man want to seek out a man cave somewhere etc because the concentrated presence of estrogen is uncomfortable so he seeks a concentrated presence of testosterone which then only causes desire for yet another "tea"

Now... I'm not knocking anything. I'm just saying that I sometimes wonder if a world of multiple microchasms that cater to specific genre's serve to divide us more and more.

This goes back to the hunter/gatherers, when the men and older boys would head off for the hunt and the women and girls would scour the woods for edible plants.

Or the men would guard the paraments of the camp, while the women would cook and nurse their babies.

I think this grouping off is embedded in psyche.

I see it differently than that... but that doesn't count for much.

We all have differing "jobs" in life... we always have. Women do this... men do that... kids do the other. That is, absolutely, the way it has been for all of time.

But the thing I see that is different is that we now have an ability for the three groups (men, women & children) to get together with their "own kind" and experience an environment that consists of and builds and increased need/desire for all things equal to their own makeup.

It would seem that this concept is probably one which I have not yet put enough though into to properly be able to explain and engage in discussion about. Of course... discussion would facilitate better understanding as well...
