As I see it, the ancients already figured out the essential relationships and they must have done so using what was available to them.
So, when I replace the four forces we recognize in nature with woman, man, children and families, then I can picture the same relationships I see with the forces.
For woman and man, I’d pick the strong- and the weak-nuclear forces (no, not starting a debate which is the stronger sex), while for the children I’d pick the electromagnetic force. The boys and the girls are then electric and magnetic, respectively (or vice versa). Lastly, gravity is then to these other forces what families are to woman, man and children. It would then be a natural occurrence that more or less fits on all of them.
