If a woman makes 70 cents for every dollar a man makes for the same work....why would anyone ever want to hire a man ..ever??
My first marriage I was suppose to do all the manly things, but not allowed to be a man! I think we can safely say that men and women in this day and age can often switch roles?

Because religion is a cancer and just rules made up by men.
God wouldn't repress women...only man would.
If people think the Bible is the word of God they have to agree with the passages above.
The 10 commandments should be 6 because 4 of them are obviously just made up to keep people in the religious club by instilling fear.
The rest (6) are obvious and even Atheists know these things are wrong....morals do not come from any book they come from within.
Oh and fight against all religion because it attacked me first...in real life and here on ATS.
If it was just in Church and homes I wouldn't care but when It is pushed into government, schools and my face I push back.

boymonkey74,
I went back and looked at some of your other posts on this page and back up what I stated in my previous post. You are publically educated..meaning a television and movie education in emotions. That is how a lot of women tend to think ..by their emotions.
In case you do not know...Amendment 1 is and was intended as a limit on government. All the first ten amendments to the US Constitution were intended as limits on government..not on the people.
Our phony court system has installed a Talmudic Ruling called the exclusionary rule which goes against the first Amendment and allows the government to do what the first ten Amendments were never intended to do..limit the people.
It is the Government which was to be bound by the Constitution ..not the people. Limited government.
If religion is a cancer and rules made up by men...so too with most laws as they are made up by men.
Your logic and reason are appalling.
As to government not repressing women...only man would. Here again you are showing your public education thinking...from emotions.
I have news for you boymonkey 74...women would repress other women...in particularly to repress competition in the marketplace. I cannot imagine what you are possibly thinking here.
I recently finished reading this book...
'Women's Inhumanity to women" By Phyllis Chesler
www.amazon.com...
This was an eye opening book about women ..and the control games they play among themselves in order to repress other women...on the job and off the job. I am grateful to the woman who referred this book to me.
This week the Church of England agreed to ordain women bishops, and the world is asking: Why did it take you so long?
Akra, not your beliefs is what we are actually talking about. We are talking about the idea of women who believe in the Bible, why do they follow what "represses" them?
We are speaking in the context of marital relationships, which includes sex.
Are women expected to submit to the sexual desire of the man, simply because he expects it of her to do so? Is it mutual if the women must be talked into it? And if she must be talked into it, going against her own conscience, but gives in because the man makes her feel like she must to show that she loves him, and he is the one doing the suggestion, then it isn't actually mutual and her conscience is repressed, for his desire.
That is part of the question in the OP.
But how many women know what I am talking about, how you are the one who must give in to the man, even if you don't want to, but you just can't get it through his head that you would rather not, but he plays the "you don't love me" game.
It appears to me repression and sterotyping comes in many forms and from many people...specifically, those people that continue to follow the patriarchial path in work and in their personal and religious life, without much thought or research into the real facts. I would also add that selecting reading material that only caters to one's biases shows closed-mindedness and a need to reinforce their discriminatory slant on a particular situation. There are many books written on man's inhumanity to man - not only an eye opener but a stomach emptier.
"But this only seems puzzling because we tend to think that bias is an evil word, tainted with ugly -isms and the deliberate diminishing of certain kinds of people. Current research is showing that all human beings have unconscious cognitive biases — what Harvard professor Mahzarin Banaji calls “mind bugs.” These biases may have been adaptive thousands of years ago, when people lived in small, homogeneous communities and in-group favoritism or snap judgments might have made the difference between life or death. But they are problematic in our global 21st century world."
Even when it comes to sex the bible is poorly translated... which applies to her beliefs as well...
IF a man says "if you don't have sex with me you don't love me" that person is ONLY looking for sex... which is in fact an unfair argument anyways...

I read it InTheLight.
Did you catch what is missing from it in an attempt to bring about Equality??? To paint a level playing field??

Plus we can assume back then most women were not as willing to have sex with someone just for fun in most cases as we do today... But IF they did, it was most likely going to be with someone they care about... not just to get off...
Wow all women think by their emotions do they? More BS you controllers want to spread about women, they can be very good logical thinkers.
Not going to bother to be honest with this thread because It is obvious the people whom disagree and think the Bible is all great for women are the people who want to control them.
Reading your posts it is obvious you enjoy controlling women and want them put down, they are equal to men sorry but they are in law and in spirit.
This isn't 1930 anymore even though you would love it to be.,

Akragon,
Some of us out here are still salty...not sugary and sweet. We do not easily get our feathers ruffled . We do not loose sleep over what others say or think of us. We do not easily go into panic mode or insult mode when someone disagrees with us as you can tell by my posts to monkeyboy74.
Or put another way..we are not that sensitive.
It is my earnest hope I have not gotten your measure incorrectly..but I judge you more suited to understanding and comprehending this than monkeyboy74.
All the best,
Orangetom
