Читать книгу This Incredible Creation Called Woman - David Medley - Страница 3

I am a fan of the 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene. It is unfortunate that I didn't find this book when I was in college. I think things would have been a lot different for me if I had. Though I don't go by every law stated in the book (because most of them could turn you into a deceptive, slimy type of person), some of them speak directly to women. And if we're going to have a serious talk about women's empowerment, this is a good place to start.

I think young girls, starting at 18, should read more about the laws of power. At the very least, they should understand them, especially those girls who will be entering the real world or the corporate world at some point in the future. If you're not at least aware of the power plays that are going on all around you, you're more likely to fall victim to them.

Not to mention, heterosexual girls 18 and over are in "the snakepit." Many are vulnerable to meeting the wrong men, who only want to use and abuse a naive young girl.

Even women 40 and older can benefit from learning the laws of power. But for now, in this series, I'm just going to point out a few of the laws that I think women of all ages should know. Some of it may seem obvious, but a lot of women don't act like they know!

Greene's 5th law is "So Much Depends on Reputation - Guard it With Your Life."
