The first requirement for the acquisition of power by the Positive Woman is to understand the differences between men and women. Your outlook on life, your faith, your behavior your potential for fulfillment, all are determined the parameters of your original premise. The Positive Woman starts with the assumption that the world is her oyster. She rejoices in the creative capability within her body and the power potential of her mind and spirit. She understands that men and women are different, and that those very differences provide the key to their success as a person and fulfillment as a woman.

The women's liberationist, on the other hand, is imprisoned by her own negative view of herself and of her place in the world around her….Someone-it is not clear who, perhaps God, perhaps the "Establishment," perhaps a conspiracy of male chauvinist pigs-dealt women a foul blow by making them female. It becomes necessary, therefore, for women to agitate and demonstrate an hurl demands on society in order to wrest from an oppressive male-dominated social structure the status that has been wrongfully denied to women through the centuries….Confrontation replaces cooperation as the watchword of all relationships. Women and men become adversaries instead of partners….Within the confines of the women's liberationist ideology, therefore, the abolition of this overriding inequality of women becomes the primary goal.
