Monthly TOEFL Outline #2: Minority rules

IN THE TWENTY FIRST CENTURY,
THE GENDER MINORITY GROUPS

WILL RISE TO BE THE MAJORITY GROUPS

Weird. Right? The major change I think this century will bring is a particular sort of social change: where the world turns over placing long long minority groups at the top of society. Who are these minority? I saw two evident groups that were marching right up to this metamorphosis. One is the gender-wise minority group; the other is really young people. They are going to rule the world. I think. Why oh why would I possibly think this?

WOMEN AND HOMOSEXUALS

1. Women's rights are improving: that has been the trend for the last several decades

• Everyone's heard of this. We all know that women were treated really bad and then they started being treated as humans, became enfranchised, and are now looked upon as equal to men by most people.

• So now women are equal. 

• But not so far in the 21st century, women aren't going to stop there. They will rise and become socially what men used to be in the past for hundreds of years; the lone dominant race of the planet for the most part. 

• I know it sounds radical, but it is not unlikely. 

• Ever heard of the term 'alpha girl'? It was sort of a fad a few years ago in the very beginning of the 21st century. It indicated a girl or a woman who could do multiple things at once, or one who excelled in activities beyond any man. It indicated a girl or a woman was generally expected to be inferior to males, but there were a few exceptions so exceptional they deserve a whole nice cute phrase to themselves. That's what people thought at the time. That's what women actually were at the time: it's only very recent so many females started getting out of the household more.

• That phrase disappeared. There are no 'alpha girl's. Every girl is exceptional, and no girl is expected to be naturally inferior to men. Even back then, women were thought to be 'equals', but that wasn't in the whole spirit of the word. Now people acknowledge that females should no longer be considered any different than men, though action doesn't always follow. People don't believe in 'alpha girl's anymore: they believe in 'alpha people'. Or at least they know they should. 

• That's how we are now equal. There were fights, there was media, there were individual alpha girls, there were stupid men, and there were brave women. There was 'equal'. 

• But will it stop there? 

• Men used to be the ruling species; they weren't equal, they were over women. They were at the top of societies, and they controlled. They were the only gender that ruled. The only. 

• So won't women become the only ones to rule as well? 

• They say the qualities required for this century are those of the feminine sort; empathy, sensitivity, carrying out tasks in a detailed manner, knowing how to subtle. Of course, not all women possess these qualities and not all men don't, but generally speaking, this is what society thinks 'feminine'. This is what higher jobs of the new era require, them being more about investment, management, and social relationships. Even if it isn't, that's what people have started thinking. Among 64,000 people surveyed in thirteen nations, two thirds feel the world would be a better place if men thought more like women. Women are wanted. They will be placed on the top, soon.

     2.  And then we have the homosexuals

• Feminine qualities are wanted, right? 

• Now we have gay men who have those feminine qualities. These are the next rulers in the 21C social hierarchy. 

• Now, there is another thing the society currently needs. That is less people. The Earth is overflowing with people. It's gross. People are using up everything. We all know about environmental issues, don't we? And guess what: it seems like people aren't going to change their style of living for at least quite some time. So what else can be changed? The number of the pests on the planet. 

• There's this thing called 'evolution'. Although some people don't believe in 'big evolution', like from a frog to an elephant, most believe in at least 'small evolution', like from an early form of humans to what we are now. I hope you do to. Because what I'm about to suggest here is a rather radical form of small evolution. 

• There are too many people. Too many people breed. There needs to be less people who breed. Homosexuals don't really breed. Or they can perfectly control it. They are what Earth wants more of instead of these destructive heterosexuals. More and more people will gain the mutation. Eventually, the human kind will evolve towards being homosexuals. 

• Now you whine, "But our species can't survive if we don't breed!" No, we can survive fine. Why is it homosexuals and not infertile people? Humans have rather amazingly developed technology to the point where no actual breeding is required to give birth to offspring. So what happens if we are mostly homosexuals is that we can control birth rates. 

• I think nature knows that. 

• See. gay people are the next step in evolution. That's why so many homosexuals are so awesome. 

• These awesome people will jump up hoppidy hop up to the top. Then they will ameliorate policies, and even more homosexuals will rule our world.
