Dianic here...

We leave the one horned one to be worshiped by the nymphs; and, I utter the word worshiped through clenched teeth. It isn't an anti male stand. It's an anti worship stand which my coven of 13 share. These two, the mother and the maiden, are symbols to us of the greatness of a potentially living, nurturing cosmos and the need to manage the mothering earth it has created more humanely and less greedily and wastefully.

Let me use a common analogy of the woodsmen. One needs to reap wood from the mother for many good purposes. However, one also needs to preserve the virginity of other woodlands for future uses-so we use what we need; we share happily what we may have in excess; we persevere in preserving what is in excess of that which would satiate the needs of all.

We are called wicce among the wiccans-females all. Though some lean toward worship of the likes of that which was made famous by tales of the isle of Sappho, without revealing any secrets one can't find on Wikipedia, to others who are bi-sexual Sappho worship is neither wiccan nor liberating-it limits the limits of polyamory.;)
