I find it deeply offensive that you suggest nature is gender oriented.
Please fix this, it is not mother nature, it is nature and that is all
it is. You have been subject to feminist propaganda, and do not
realise that you are subjecting other people to feminist propaganda.

I don't find it deeply offensive but i do think you should correct it.

Oh, OK. that's a bit more reasonable, but you still need to concentrate on more important things in life.

The expression "mother" Nature implies the nurturing aspect along with the 'birthing' aspect of the Earth, which is a living being by the way.

Earth and its physical expression-Nature-are truly the mother of all creatures who are born and die here. Why that idea, which is perfectly accurate and acceptable to me, should bother you at all is beyond me. There are fundamental differences between male and female energy and there's nothing wrong with idenifying them where appropriate.

Do you resent calling your own mother, "mother" as well?

You need to dig deeper and discover WHY you are so bent out of shape with words that allude to the feminine.

There much more going on here that has nothing to do with Mother Nature.
