More yahooing sophistry! Social pleasentries!
The happiness of man is: I will.
The happiness of woman is: he wills.
Nietzsche did not understand the East or its complex
social systems. He says, "Man must conceive of women
as Orientials do: he must conceive of women as a
possession, as property that can be locked, as
something predestined for service and achieving her
perfection in that."

Most of what? More sophistry. He did make an attempt,
but he only fell into a deeper nihilism of domination.
You should spend more time reading the books and less
time on the interenet. Well, you have to read good
books and that seems to be something you're not able
to do or do well.
