Trans-gen-der

Creation was incomplete, indeed impossible without women.

God saw it was less than good and made woman as the crowning glory of perfection.
Sadly Adam never saw and thus sexism was born, not of woman, but from a man who couldn't take a ribbing.

That was the bit in Susan Faludi's book, Backlash, that flabbergasted me the most. All those anti-feminist women she cited, leading orgs or serving in office, they were working mothers with full autonomy. Hell, some of them were the family breadwinners!

If Marjorie is so weak, why is she in public all?

She is really a piece of work.

The following is a cheeky rendition of a story with many versions and interpretations that have morphed through the ages (not found in the Bible for the most part, of course) and certainly there are scholars who could do a way better job with it, but here's the gist:

Lilith, Adam's first wife, was created at the same time of the same clay. (Genesis 1:27 KJV) Naturally, she considered herself his equal. Adam wanted to run Eden with Lilith as his little helpmeet. He was quite put out that she refused to 'submit' and let him have things his way. Since Adam was way too bossy and less than wonderful in the sack, Lilith dumped him and went off to have a fine time with the archangel Samael instead. She refused to return to Adam and was harshly punished and demonized for her independent streak.

Since Adam still needed some companionship and someone to 'help' him with everything, the creator obliged him. (Genesis 2:21-23 KJV) Eve was created to be subservient and biddable in order to please Adam. What possible chance could she have in facing down Satan, hmm? Women get blamed for Eve's weakness in eating the apple when there's a case to be made that it was Adam's fault all along for being a selfish jerk. Too bad he couldn't hang onto his first wife, a woman likely smart enough and strong enough to tell Satan where to stick it.

Knock yourself out if you want to be weak, Marjorie, but don't expect all other women to be weak with you.

Child labor looks really fucking painful. Women may not be, by any large, stronger than men, but they aren’t weaker as far as pain tolerance is concerned.

Also, marriage doesn’t make a person property. If a wife isn’t in the mood and the husband forces it, that’s rape.

Also, imaginary beings in the sky that sometimes grant wishes and get angry if you eat meat on Friday don't exist.

God creates Eve from the rib of Adam
Scene 10 from the Genesis-Cycle

Monreale cathedral, west wall mosaic

The cathedral of Monreale, above Palermo, was erected by Norman King William II (1167/71-1189) in a royal park on the site of an earlier Greek church. Work on the structure and its decoration was largely completed by the death of the king in 1189.

That's one of the classic eps.

I simply cannot eat the same food every day! Fish! Liver! Day after day! I've eaten a river of liver and an ocean of fish! I've eaten so much fish, I'm ready to grow gills! I've eaten so much liver, I can only make love if I'm smothered in bacon and onions!
