But seriously I didn't mean to start the debate back up again. I figured the OP was long gone by now. Usually sexists don't last long here.
I am a Gnostic Christian and we recognize the spark of God within all of us. Full equality is something we have to embrace from the get go.
Gnostic Christian men have just decided that man is stronger and better, by will and body, and should thus be the main protector of family values and think that our duty is first to maintain life for our children and secondly to place our wives in that same safe environment.
IOW, the strong should serve the weak.
If you think the reverse should be in play, then you are not much of a moral or duty driven person.
Get thee behind me Satan.

I don't even know what to say to this because I'm trying to leave my emotions out if your thread. I used to be like you, believe like you. But I realized that all too often the strong exploit the weak instead of serving them.
I don't believe the opposite either. I don't believe people should serve other people unless they want to. I believe people should be free to choose their own roles.
Be kind and caring and considerate. Help those you can help and accept help when you need it. These things have nothing to do with gender.
I would be offended that you called me satan but I prefer that instead of you seeing a spark of your god in me which is offensive and leaves me wishing to be physically ill.
Get behind you, not a chance. I will not stand behind you, or in front of you. I will not stand over you, nor will I kneel before you. I'd say here I will stand next you, but you give me the creeps so I'd rather just stay as far away as possible.

Some others here have forgotten that bit and call me sexist as in pro man when, if that word applies at all, I should be called sexist for being pro women.

Yes, you seem to be sexist against both men(who do not fit your idea of a "real man") and women.
For women's own sake? The thing you are not getting is it's not for women's sake at all. Women do not need to be ruled over by men.
