[ciaervo1]

a man of our tribe came back from America and took ground as large as four city blocks and made a paradise of it.... The man had gone away from our village a poor boy. Now he returned with unlimited wealth, which he had obtained in the country of the American wizards. After many amazing adventures he had become a merchant in a city called Mott Street, so it was said. When his palace and grounds were completed he gave a dinner to all the people who assembled to be his guests. One hundred pigs roasted whole were served on the tables, with chickens, ducks, geese and such an abundance of dainties that our villagers even now lick their fingers when they think of it. He had the best actors from Hong Kong performing, and every musician for miles around was playing and singing.... Having made his wealth among the bar- barians this man had faithfully returned to pour it out among his tribesmen, and he is living in our village now very happy, and a pillar of strength to the poor. The wealth of this man filled my mind with the idea that I, too, would like to go to the country of the wizards and gain some of their wealth.

The testicles begin this process of subjugation long before men are born, in fact as early as eight weeks after they have been conceived. Only two weeks after they have been created, the testicles begin to spew out the sex chemical that sows the seeds of the male sex organs and then directs the developing brain according to male patterns. By establishing special combinations of electrical circuits, testosterone programs specific areas of the brain to equip the developing fetus for any future male role in the theater of life.
