Why do you believe that religions think women are second class humans? Are males second class humans because they can’t give birth?
No. All religions disparage women. We’re second class citizens when it comes to them. We have to be submissive and do what we’re told. We have no real voice ... have the babies, make dinner, clean up and shut up ... and be available whenever the men want us ... 24/7 .....
I know you know this, but I’m making a lurker point. Catholicism has always taught us that women were equal to men but still different. A lot of Jesus’ closest friends were chicks.
