I am guessing that even though we are atheists/Christian/Jew/Muslim, we still believe that the male will always be dominant even in the 21st century. With respect, I know it is horrible, and I know that Jews and Muslims (both male and female) do it, but I cannot for the life of me understand why Christians would do such a thing. It is about time all religions got their act together, stop giving worthless sainthoods to people not worthy, and start looking after those who they are supposed to represent. Religion will be the death of many people to come...
I can't for the life of me understand how one sex can be dominant over the other. It's a ridiculous notion.
No one should hide under the umbrella of their sex. That's stupid. Nor should anyone mistreat you based on your sex. Both of those are irrational ways to be in the world.
I see people as individuals, not as males and/or females.
I wasn't personally implying, but giving an opinion of how the world seems in that we are still treating the women as the gentler sex and men as the alpha/strongman type and that we shouldn't lose any sleep over it. That is all. It is an impression I got from what Rythym stated.
