ability to dialogue … with many


empathy to understand and engage


adaptability to change
intuition, guessing the next trend
The world in the past has been ruled by force, and
man has dominated over woman by reason of his
more forceful and aggressive qualities both of body
and mind. But the balance is already shifting; force is
losing its dominance, and mental alertness, intuition,
and the spiritual qualities of love and service, in which
woman is strong, are gaining ascendancy. Hence the
new age will be an age less masculine and more
permeated with the feminine ideals, or, to speak more
exactly, will be an age in which the masculine and
feminine elements of civilization will be more evenly
balanced.



(J. E. Esslemont, “Bahá’u’lláh and the New Era”)
