Should man rule over women for women’s own good?


Scriptures, and other myth’s, say that God determined that men should rule over women. This gives form,—- in a demographic sense,——to our common and society, and says that our demographic pyramid should have a hierarchical shape and or form. This initiates tension and has God demonizing woman, as well as any notion of female equality with man.

His motive must be for the good of women. Somehow!
After all, sanctity of the family is one of the main points of morality.

God was arguably right for his time. Think in the barbaric way. Below the belt. Thank God that time is almost past. Women in our modern world do not need man’s dubious ape like help. I hope you agree. Be honest now with yourself be you male or female.

Men have dominated women long enough I think. To give them equality would be justice.

What do you think?
What would real men do?
What would real women demand?
Do men and women have what it takes to be free?

Justice under law should be gender and age neutral, with limits, but with a good spirit of assuring equality. We do not administer that justice.  We only give it lip service. Men are not walking their talk. Neither are women.

In Gods timocracy, a place of government in which love of honor is the ruling principle. All honors go to the Queen and her children. A king’s first responsibility is to insure the veneration of his queen. Honor demands it. He accepts this burden and pleasure wisely. The Queen, as the Beta archetype is the life of the kingdom. The archetypal king’s duty is to raise woman’s position. That means that all men have the same duty. That of not denying women equality and elevating her.

Men. Be good kings. You are making good just men look bad. Step up.
God wills it.

Women. Be good queens and demand what is yours.

I want equality except when the ship is sinking and women and children are told to board the lifeboats first. 

Well, except in Italy.

You know, Greatest, you’re preaching to the choir.  Most men here are pretty egalitarian when it comes to these issues.  Their brains are smut-laden, but that can’t be helped.  All you can do is teach them to ogle discreetly.

Thanks all. I do recognize that most here are not of the calibre that I find, unfortunately, in more religious sites.

About the only thing that one should take seriously on this forum is to enjoy interacting with others.  Educating them or being educated by them, may happen, but better for that goal to go to school. It is also useful to be able to laugh at oneself as readily as at others.

What a fuckwit!

GreatestHeIsn’t should stay on those sites on which he gets off instead of coming in here and boring us with his revolting drivel. Another chronic intellectual masturbater. Just like BM!

My mother would have described him as an “odd duck”.  I don’t object to much that he writes; it just all seems sermon-esque, which is a bit strange on a secular website.

I learn from places like this, although most here have yet to be helpful or add to my arsenal of points to fight foolish religious ideas with.

It could be seen as sermon like. I hope so in the sense that anything I post in such places has the intent of both getting those here primed to go fight the evils of religions and to also draw what I might use against them.

If you all here just hang here and do not try to reduce the harm of religions then you are not good people with social conscience.
