The Female Mental Sexed mind knows there is never a real synthesis, but rather a constant cycle of growth and rebirth, continuous attention applied to balancing out inequities that are never truly solved. Hegelian and his followers were die-hard Male Mental Sex thinkers. This would be a Male Mental Sexed interpretation of balance-that there is a scale that exists between the two and once the perfect balance point is found (a synthesis), then all potential is resolved, and a solution has been found. I read your article about holistic premises and watched your writer's room session, and it made me think about the Hegellian notion of the Dialectic and whether that might apply to Dramatica from the holistic standpoint – that we have thesis (problem), antithesis (solution), and that what you're calling balance (which to me sort of implies just sticking them on a linear scale and going halfway between) might be thought of as synthesis – finding a way to forge a new perspective from the two? The Male Mental Sexed mind believes in the Solution-the resolution that permits one to move on, knowing the problem to be "solved." The Female Mental Sexed mind realizes problems themselves are manufactured within the mind and that nothing is ever solved, it's only balanced for the time being.

My series on The Female Mental Sex Premise addresses that train of thought wherein the wheels never stop turning. Watch then, as the vaulted genie-us and supremacy of the Hegelian dissipates into the ether. Seeing inequities instead of problems, and equities instead of solutions, the Female Mental Sexed mind deals in the consistent application of balance. The Female Mental Sexed mind takes a different approach. Mental Sex defines the boot record base-operating system of the mind, and nothing more.īack to the Hegelian Dialectic and it’s roots in Male Mental Sexed appreciations of narrative structure. It’s important to understand that Mental Sex is NOT determinant upon Gender, nor does it correlate with Gender Preference and/or Gender Orientation. Mental Sex is not the same thing-which is why throughout Narrative First and Subtxt you’ll find this original concept restored to its rightful place in the discussion of narrative structure. Earlier versions of this article and others fostered this misinterpretation with its attempt to conceal this enlightening concept behind the more acceptable notions of Linear and Holistic thought. The problem with this equivalence is that both Male and Female Mental Sexed minds can think consciously in terms of Linear or Holistic thought. Some versions of Dramatica theory equated Male Mental Sex with Linear thought, and Female Mental Sex with Holistic thought. The mind that filters through relating inequities is defined as having a Female Mental Sex. In Dramatica theory, the mind that filters through cause-and-effect is defined as having a Male Mental Sex. The other prefers time to space, and justifies inequities through managing relationships ( you are another me). One prefers space over time, and problem-solves through cause and effect ( if that, then this).
While an entire book could be written about the concept itself, Mental Sex is the idea that our minds run on one of two distinct operating systems. And then the resulting solution, or Synthesis, finds a third truth that takes the best of both to resolve the original problem.Ĭlassic Male Mental Sex, cause and effect problem-solving.īut then, what on Earth is Mental Sex? A Unique Understanding of Narrative Structure An alternate truth, or Antithesis, enters the scene to maximize conflict. Hegelian Dialectic-which, interestingly enough, didn't even come from Hegel himself-is a Male Mental Sex process of solving problems.Ī truth, or problem, is introduced.
You only have to turn a blind eye to how the other half lives. Rising from the mystic ashes of ancient philosophy, the Hegelian promises riches beyond comprehension for those who follow his three-step process towards resolving conflict. Mention these three words together, and you unlock the accursed genie that is the Hegelian Dialectic.
