This is just a way to say, we are meant to degrade one another but support one another and uplift one another.No, that is untrue. The gender of a person who chooses to help me is simply not relevant. I've been betrayed by men and aided by women, and the other way around as well.
Quote:Because God graced men with things above women and grace women with things above men, we are meant to uplift each other, not try to be the same but appreciate each other strengths and God's grace on both.I've never been interested in gender roles. I'd rather go shopping for power tools than do childcare or other traditionally female things.
Quote:As for financial, it was due to the situation of that time where women barely worked...
Do you have any fucking idea how physically taxing it is to maintain a household? "Barely worked," my ass!
Quote: ...and didn't read and didn't get to exercise their mind...
That certainly isn't the women's fault. That betrays a backwards, misogynistic culture that did not value women enough to teach them.
Quote:...and as for sexual crimes, it is simple, who usually likes to spread rumors about these things?
Well, not me, that's for certain. It is established that both men and women gossip. Deal with it.
Quote:Maybe in this time, women are not like this but during that time, women had a lot of time and time breeds rumor spreading and story planning - and so it was all act of precautions.
Stop making excuses for your religion's unforgivable subjugation of women. In the 21st century there is no justification whatsoever for perpetuating such crap.
