No one asked about changing someone else...I was asking what practice YOU as a woman, in light of your "pulling together" comment, would change in the spirit of cooperation, rather than sitting back waiting for the other side to change.

Yes I am familiar with 1 Cor 11, but that's not what I was getting at with reference to the curse of the fall. I was refering to the internal power struggle that God instituted between man and woman. It's not a matter of independence, it's a matter of leadership and resistance to same. Even church women are content to follow the leadership of their husbands...provided he only leads where she wants to go.

People have a marvelous facility for redefining things so the original intent is of no affect. It's only after you identify those mechanisms, and drop them, that things start to fall into place. My question to you is...what have you identified?

LOL, that was surely my experience. Maybe you can appreciate why I went OCS for a Christian woman.

Assuming you aren't just wanting a fight, I'll try to answer. But I have to say, it is a personal decision each individual has to make, and I doubt those I make will make a noticable dent to society at large.

I would continue doing what I do now, I guess. Refuse to play the gender games that only hurt and resolve nothing. Try to be strong enough not to give in to all the goodies the law says it will give me and the NOW groupies claim I'm entitled, too. Let the men be what they are and work on being a help rather than a hindrance. As I said, personal, and prolly not to your liking. But then, that's not any of my concern, as I'm neither a church-going woman, nor secretly praying or looking for God to send me any man.
I'm in a rush and if I didn't give an answer to all your points, sorry.
Good day to you.
