A woman is supposed to be compact and graceful, while a man is supposed to make his presence know and make himself larger. In other countries people carry things differently. Women and children in some African tribes frequently carry things on their heads but it is more common to see a man carrying something on his shoulders. <BR/><BR/>And to further clarify, I was not saying that female oppression was God's (if their indeed is a God) idea but that man has used it as an example to oppress womenRachel Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12862882012668192502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7344034613032507246.post-73733114103126263722008-03-03T11:40:00.000-08:002008-03-03T11:40:00.000-08:00Thanks for stopping by my blog!The way I see the A...Thanks for stopping by my blog!<BR/><BR/>The way I see the Adam and Eve story, each thing God created was more complicated than the thing before. Since woman was created last, we are the crowning glory of His creation! We are man's companion, not his servant. The oppression of women is not God's idea, but man's. There is a lot more said in the Bible about how husbands should treat their wives, than vice versa. <BR/><BR/>I also have to disagree that the differences between sexes are totally cultural, although they do play a part. Look at how a boy naturally carries his school books (before every kid carried a backpack, anyway). Boys carry their books in their hand with the arm hanging downward,they way they would carry a tool. Girls carry books cradled in their arm the way they would carry an infant.<BR/><BR/>Praise God for making us all so different! It would be a pretty boring world otherwise.Jillbethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00418623869574281268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7344034613032507246.post-90643990685155855052008-03-02T23:41:00.000-08:002008-03-02T23:41:00.000-08:00I can't STAND chauvanism.

There are quite a few more double-standards on gender and they cause too many problems. I really wish my students' English skills were better so that I could use this for a conversation in class... alas, I only have a handful who would understand the topic.Matthewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13661968297027198340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7344034613032507246.post-21592322700213831892008-03-02T13:52:00.000-08:002008-03-02T13:52:00.000-08:00Nice post here, seems like you got a lot off of yo...Nice post here, seems like you got a lot off of your mind. Males have a tendency to be butt heads when it comes to women. I have worked with women doing many different types of jobs that some call men jobs, and they actually where better than some men.I have worked with female police officers, firefighters and even some construction workers.It is flattering when a female opens the door for you and is being polite. OK that is enough talking on your blog lol, nice siteDwaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04639269612403086930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7344034613032507246.post-24555420830406491052008-03-02T05:50:00.000-08:002008-03-02T05:50:00.000-08:00I followed your comment on my blog back here (from...I followed your comment on my blog back here (from twodorks) and was immediately greeted by this piece/rant/article :)<BR/><BR/>I tend to agree with most of your viewpoints and I try hard to treat everyone, regardless of race, color, sex, or creed as 'a person.' When you get down to it, at the very base we are all just people.<BR/><BR/>However, there are some times where things like a persons sex make a difference. There are plenty of women who excel in jobs traditionally considered 'mens jobs' and that is great, it's empowering, and proper. However there are still some jobs that women are having difficulty making inroads due to physiological constraints (strength being the main one).<BR/><BR/>I guess what I'm trying to say, is I agree with your viewpoint...women are perfectly capable and should be given every opportunity that males are until the women themselves prove otherwise.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05347856535592365983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7344034613032507246.post-76527077652621723972008-03-01T12:27:00.000-08:002008-03-01T12:27:00.000-08:00Cool Alex Ross pic.Cool Alex Ross pic.Linkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04617898436856197406noreply@blogger.com
