It was pretty hard going against Muslim women in my previous posts; this time it will be pretty harder going against machismos.. Memothehun.. I have read the text and have read it well. The article which Memothehun JUST READ is just one of the many attempts to curtail women empowerment in the guise of comparative analyses between Western and Muslim women.. ("Muslim women, don't be jealous and envious with Weternized women; they are abused and exploited.. You are protected and cared..") The line between Western and Muslim women has long been drawn.. (Since I became active in Ebaby fora, I already settled with the fact that liberated women like me are regarded as immodest and the only dignified women are Muslim women at least to the active Muslim EBaby members..) Dwelling on that means recycling the issue over and over again.. Let us refrain from asking ourselves the question, "How does religion tames a woman?" Let us get away from religion this time and let us talk about you (men) and we (women).. So, we women are exploited? (By who?) We women are victims of consumerism? (Are you not too?) Our happiness must lie in our role of taking care of you, our children and the house.. (Where must your happiness lie?) Women must not forget they will always be under men for God created woman out of the man's rib (according to the Bible).. She will always be a part of his body and not a separate entity.. ONLY HIM WILL DICTATE WHAT IS RIGHT FOR HER AND NOW EVEN WHAT SHOULD MAKE HER HAPPY.. Djou told me before that the Triumvirate/Divine Trinity is the greatest conspiracy of all time.. I think not.. Since time immemorial men's superior placement have always been threatened by women.. Men's superiority complex is greatly and effectively reflected even in the Bible.. If we will base from every creation story, who was created first? (In the Bible, man..) Who are the authors of the Holy Books? (Mostly men, rarely women—Only Esther, Judith and Ruth? Correct me if I am wrong..) It is nice to note that even Mary whom Christians consider as the Mother of God did not have the priviledge to decide on her own as she spoke, "Thy will be done.." (Nevermind if the future generations will question the authenticity of Immaculate Conception..) Just how do we perceive God? (He must be some form of a real deal energy but Bible says we are created from His image..) Every painting, photo and instantaneous imagination render or interpret Him as masculine.. Did God ever have a woman? If God were alone and a man, He must be lonely not having woman dealing with all the problems of the universe.. If He were a man, He must be sexist too for not allowing His woman come into picture in all of the divine and superb stories about Him (Creation, for example).. I know I delved completely away from the topic but the things I stated have clear relationship with it.. It will be irrational to rationalize God, but not attempting at least will be purely stupid.. Equality has been a question since the time the Bible was made..
