The timeless coming-of-age novel about five young women who meet at Radcliffe College and together grow to maturity—through intrigues, ambitions, affairs, and marriages—from World War II to the 1980s. Lavinia, Peg, and Cathy seem to have little in common save for their freshman status. None of them could know that their destinies are about to inextricably intertwine. Across four decades, as time and events upend their expectations, these five women discover their sexuality, reveal their secrets, and struggle with independence—sometimes surrendering, sometimes making stunning choices. Now reissued thirty-five years after its original release, Alice Adams’s Superior Women, hailed as “a remarkable compression of time, memory, and sentiment—rather as if Hemingway had been turned loose on Proust” (San Francisco Chronicle), is a richly drawn, uncompromising novel about women’s intimate, interior lives for fans of Mary McCarthy’s The Group and Rona Jaffe’s The Best of Everything.

Deida explores the most important issues in men's lives--from career and family to women and intimacy to love and spirituality--to offer a practical guidebook for living a masculine life of integrity, authenticity, and freedom.

Since I published my book "Sweet and Sour women", I have had a lot questions from both men and women, of who I think is better. I carried out both qualitative, quantitative, social-legal and comparative research include journals, books internet internationally etc. My opinion is that women are superior to men especially in the western countries. However women in communist, Arab, Africa and Asia countries are also show some areas of superiority. In my opinion women do not need men. In fact sometimes men may be hinderance in women life.Despite hardships and numerous challenges, women have emerged better and far superior to men across multiple disciplines. include education politics, Space travelling, sports, music, profession, take over male dominated profession communication, billionaire, won academy award, business, employment, Army, actress movies etc. I propose to research in wide spectrum where women journey from submission to victory, from misery to happiness, from slavery to master. I intend to look at different geography areas include Western countries, ( Europe and America) communist countries, Africa Asia Jamaica, Arab different colour of skin, they journey of some women, the hindrance and struggle of women and more. In all these areas women have shown superiority in specific targeted. Of Course due to politics, culture, traditional, the law of the countries national and international laws which sometimes make it difficult to enforce these laws to the detriment of womenCan communicate faster.Some reason women are better than men includeCan have babies without a man sperm, Can have babies without husband or male friend, Enjoy better sexual with orgasm without menlive longer than men, Communication expertscan tolerate pain, Multi-tasking, Female brain has better healing abilityget things done have super powers that get things done"grow" other human beings inside themDetail oriented Psychic powers are smarter than menare more sensual than men. are cleaner than men.have better immune systems than men. have better memory than men.handle stress better than men. are better computer programmers than men.make better doctors than men. make better leaders than men.are better drivers than men. make better cops than menmake better students than men. are better with money than men.Girls mature more quickl

Superior Women examines the claims of abbesses of the abbey of Sainte-Croix in medieval Poitiers to authority from the abbey's foundation to its 1520 reform. These women claimed to hold authority over their own community, over dependent chapters of male canons, and over extensive properties in Poitou; male officials such as the king of France and the pope repeatedly supported these claims. To secure this support, the abbesses relied on two strategies that the abbey's founder, the sixth-century Saint Radegund, established: they documented support from a network of allies made up of powerful secular and ecclesiastical officials, and they used artefacts left from Radegund's life to shape her cult and win new patrons and allies. Abbesses across the 900 years of this study routinely turned to these strategies successfully when faced with conflict from dependents, or more local officials such as the bishop of Poitiers. Sainte-Croix's nuns proved adept at tailoring these strategies to shifting historical contexts, turning from Frankish bishops to the kings of Frankia, then to the Pope and finally to the King of France as former allies became unavailable to them. The book demonstrates respectful cooperation between men and monastic women, and more extensive respect for female monastic authority than scholars typically recognize. Chapters focus on the cult's manuscripts, church decoration, procession, jurisdictions between cult institutions, reform, and rebellion.

God created men and women in His own image, so men and women are equal before God and they will always remain equal, however, women have superior characteristics, qualities and attributes. God created Eve to be a helpmeet, that is, a helpful partner, for Adam. It then logically follows that for Eve to be of any significant help to Adam, she must inexorably and invariably have superior characteristics, qualities and attributes. We are going to look at a few of those characteristics, qualities and attributes, which are determined by genetics, physiology, and anatomy. Men should not be disappointed if women are superior in many ways to them, because for women to be able to effectively and efficiently help them, women must be better in many ways than them. I have analyzed a compendium of research findings from teams of researchers and individuals and awarded points to men and women without weighting any of the findings. If the finding goes against Men, then a point is awarded to Women, and if the finding goes against Women, then the point is awarded to Men. This analysis is indisputably not scientific, but it clearly shows that women are by far superior to men!
