Unhidden Faces of Woman

There are faces of woman that are getting lost to a modern world where declining fertility and femininity, as well as cancers of the reproductive system, threaten to expose what Western woman has really become--a decorated Barbie doll without true confidence or actual woman power! The first three chapters of this book deal with the “Barbie doll syndrome” and the matriarchal and tyrannical forces that no longer allow a man to live authentically as a man; that dispossess good fathers and force males to build man-caves just to behave naturally once in a while. The initial chapters also begin to sketch a new vision of feminism that would not only ask for equal rights but strive for equal authenticity, for equal self-responsibility and self-development as women who respect themselves, and who prefer to respectfully work with men instead of against. The face of western woman is revealed as a mask, a "make-up" for the insecurities of the Barbie doll. In order to arrive at a realistic version of feminism, women need to recognize where they went wrong, and that the pretenses and decorations, the tearing out of body-hair, and their obsession with clothes and body-weight is not what makes a woman happy, strong, attractive or respectable to anyone.
What can a man do, where no woman listens to his muffled screams for unperfumed air, when he loses his kids on separation, or when his sperm count drops by fifty percent from sheer emasculation?
This account is based on the author’s personal experience with tribal Filipino women who have not yet lost any of their femininity, or their competence, to narcissistic vanity and self-delusion; it introduces a portrait of woman that like the smile of Mona Lisa hints at a mysterious knowledge of being female.
The extraordinarily beautiful city of Dumaguete, where tribal people from all over Negros flow to sell their produce at the market, or to study, is the hub of an experience with that kind of woman that can restore all lost faith in womanhood and allow a man in his fifties to feel young and sexy again. Where an older and wiser man is still attractive to young women, and where he can feel respected enough as a male to be sexually authentic--a more soulful and playful quality of sex not only facilitates the transition from suppressed and apologetic male into a free and empowered man in his prime, but also opens a first door to truly know what is essentially female beyond all culture. It helps reading those faces that still speak the mysteries of the Goddess…
This story, which is unashamedly a love story, can be enjoyed by women who have the courage and humility to look at what men really think and who do not mind facing painful truths and higher standards on their path to self-knowledge. True feminists will love the honesty of a fresh and culturally comparative perspective, but controversy is assured by all those females who prefer to think of themselves as perfect princesses. For older men, this story is a beam of hope, as it promises light at the end of a very dark and lonely tunnel, and men of every age will enjoy this read, and feel understood and encouraged to accept themselves as legitimately alive. This account, which gives valuable practical insights into Dumaguete, one of the most spectacular places on earth, invites a respect for that kind of woman that most men don’t suspect can even exist--the fully authentic woman; the Goddess!
The quickly disappearing faces of the Goddess are the central focus of this spiritually sensitive guide to the soul of authentic woman, which could be a men’s bible to liberation and happiness, as much as it can structure a more enlightened version of feminism that would seek to recover some of the femininity and actual woman power lost in consumer societies. This book will be of interest to the gay/lesbian community as much as to the woman who seeks to recover her lost femininity.
