Why Mermaids are a Serious moncler outlet mall Issue
moncler outlet online moncler coats cheap Are moncler jackets canada Mermaid Myths And Legends, A Censored History Of Women?There was once a blog called “Mermaids are a Serious Issue”, that made fun of the mermaid myth. And Moncler Factory Outlet why not? After all, what most people may know about mermaids is what they have seen in the Disney films The Little https://www.hotmoncleroutlet.com Mermaid and Splash.
cheap moncler Or for those who are better educated. They might be taught at school that the origins moncler jackets cheap of the mermaid myth come from drunken or ignorant sailors in the past, who have mistaken sea cows for women in fish tails. So in the light of moncler outlet canada this scant knowledge, the whole mermaid myth is open to moncler jacket online ridicule.
monlcer moncler chicago down jackets Yet to me, mermaids are a serious issue, because in my research I have found that the mermaid legend conceals a hidden and censored history of women. I believe that mermaids were simply women divers like the Ama and Haenyo divers of Japan and Korea. At one time there were female breath holding divers moncler coats for women all over the world, who foraged underwater for marine food like seaweed, molluscs and crustaceans.
moncler outlet store It seems that in these traditional communities, the reason why women were discount moncler outlet the divers is because women have more subcutaneous fat around their bodies. This allows women to keep warmer in the water than what men do. If that is the case why are we not reading about this in our Discount Moncler Coats history books?
cheap moncler sale The reason it seems is that in the Ama and Haenyo communities in the recent past, women were the main breadwinners. While the women were diving, the men stayed at home and looked after the house and children. Unfortunately, patriarchal religions like Christianity, Islam and the philosophical system of Confucianism totally moncler jackets toronto disagreed with this way moncler jacket outlet of life. These patriarchal institutions were very clear that men should be the main breadwinner and not women
cheap moncler coats Witch HuntsFor this moncler jackets outlet online reason, many of the mermaids in Europe were killed in the Witch hunts of the middle ages, while in China female breath holding divers were completely banned.
Not only this, as these patriarchal religions and philosophies controlled the academic world at that time, they were able to write mermaids out of womens moncler jackets history. As the result we only know about mermaids today from the myth and legends, and the survival of Ama and Haenyo divers in Japan and Korea
Even modern science has problems with the mermaid legend as we see in the Aquatic Ape Theory. The official scientific theory of how we evolved from cheap moncler apes to humans is the “Killer Ape Theory”. In this theory, our ape ancestor came buy moncler jackets toronto out of the trees and lived on the African Savannah. In this very challenging environment it became a killer ape, hunting and killing animals to survive. Then through being a hunter, man learn to walk upright, moncler coats for kids lose his hair, learn to speak and developed a much larger brain. This theory was invented by male scientists who saw it all from a moncler jackets on sale purely masculine moncler outlets usa point of view
buy moncler jackets Aquatic Ape TheoryThen a feminist, Elaine Morgan in her book, “The Decent of Women”, challenged this view and asked the question. “While men were busy hunting what were women doing? How were they able to feed and care for their children on an open Savannah?”
moncler outlet After all, an ape is not a fast runner, moncler outlet store compared with most animals moncler outlet online living on the African plains, and normally climbs the nearest tree when chased by moncler jackets outlet a predator. cheap moncler jackets wholesale So how would a female ape carrying her young, escape predators, in moncler coats for cheap an environment where there are few trees? All she got was a deafening silence from male scientific establishment, who never considered this.
Elaine Morgan preferred another theory about human evolution called the Aquatic Ape Theory which far better explained why humans could walk upright, lost their moncler coats for men hair, could speak and had far moncler outlet kids larger brains than any other ape. In this theory, our ape ancestors also come down from the trees but found a moncler coats safe environment on the seashore
This is because moncler outlet location when approached by predators these apes could run into the sea. They also found on the beach, easy to obtain food like, shellfish, seaweed, crustaceans and even fish trapped in tidal pools. Over evolutionary time, they began to forage in the shallows for food, then duck their heads below the water, and finally learnt how to swim underwater.
The Killer ApeWading in the water to forage for food, taught humans how to walk upright. Hair doesn’t keep an ape warm in the water so it lost its fur.
While at the same moncler jackets men time gained subcutaneous fat like the blubber in marine animals that insulates them in water.
moncler mens jackets Marine animals have far larger brains than land animals because they eat brain food which is omega 3 fatty acids and iodine. This is abundant in the marine food but in short supply on land, and this is the food our aquatic ape ancestors would be eating. Even speaking has to do with conscious breath control which our aquatic ape ancestors had to learn to do, when swimming underwater.
Killer Ape V Aquatic ApeThis then is why we are so different from any moncler jackets other ape. But unfortunately in this theory moncler online the staring role of human evolution wasn’t given to men.
cheap moncler outlet In fact if we take mermaids seriously, then it seems that women played a more important role in our evolution than men. So for moncler jackets for women this reason male chauvinist scientists rejected moncler outlet woodbury it.
moncler cheap moncler jackets outlet outlet sale The problem is that if we believe we did evolve from killer apes, then this justifies violence, wars, genocide and aggression. It suggests we cannot stop wars or stop people using brutal force, because this is how we evolved. It also justifies patriarchy because according to the killer ape theory it was violent men who were the driving force in our evolution.
But if on the other hand we were to accept the Aquatic Ape Theory and the history of Mermaids, then it suggests we are not naturally violent and moncler outlet uk we do not have moncler outlet online store to go to war to settle our differences. Also it is not inevitable that men will always rule our world.
