Equality vs Role
Posted : 2 Mar, 2017 11:02 AM
These days everyone has a dog in this fight, mostly directed by knee-jerk assumptions or having been emotionally bullied into taking a particular hard-line stance defined by their superficial political leaning... no one ever stops to actually THINK any of it through to anything further than today, maybe "tomorrow" and actual personal accountability for actions is just too heavy a subject for the modern little snowflake.
To be fair even the older generations mostly got it wrong, the men always looking for an excuse to justify themselves the way woman are now doing, the only thing that has really changed is now woman are allowed by law to be complete self-centred morons as well... a nice new shiny right most seem to have blindly jumped upon clueless to how vapid it proves them.
First lest get the bad definitions out of the way, there are different KINDS of equality: before the law, in worth, if function, etc. Also there are different kinds of suitability... you don't use a spanner as a hammer no matter how well it might seem to work because it ends up ruining a otherwise perfectly fine spanner.
Both hands are equal in that they are hands, hands and feet are equal in that they are members, just don't start walking with your hands or using the left hand if you are right-handed... the suitability of something in a specific role and it's uselessness in another does absolutely nothing to diminish it's equality with whatever else. A last example is 1 and 2 are equal in that they are numbers but mathematically can never actually be but this might be making things too complicated...
Now, man and woman are equal in that they were created by God for each other from the same material. More specifically Eve was created for Adam FROM Adam because lets face it... it's never good to leave a man alone for too long before he implodes. In this the original roles/"suitability rules" were written in "flesh of my flesh, bone of my bone". Adam is there to do stuff and Eve is there to keep him sane, the perfect balanced partnership, reversing these roles has only ever resulted in pain and chaos.
The key is to remember that it IS a partnership, Eve was formed from a part of Adam and in the process he lost half of himself... neither part is much use without the other. In a sense the spouse that beats the other IS actually beating him-/her-self when/if ever it happens. A partnership requires harmony to function, the moment you lift your hand in anger over your spouse the harmony is cracked because you are trying to forcefully compel your own selfish reasoning.
To marry is for two to become one, whatever the two separate parts were before must cease to exist and a new whole must take form, there is no selfish ME in marriage, there is US. I do not consider the Talmud authoritative at all but this proverb from it cannot be faulted "Be very careful if you make a woman cry, because god counts her tears. The woman came out of a mans rib, not from his feet to be walked in, not from his head to be superior, but from his side to be equal, under his arm to be protected, and next to his heart to be loved."
Man must be man and woman must be woman, unselfishly in balance with one another without fear of sacrificing the self for the whole... that some men abuse their roles as head of the house or woman their role as the neck on which the said head turns does nothing to alter this. The only equality in all ways that really matters is before civil law. That man naturally holds a role of authority over woman has NEVER made her worth less than equal to him, short-sighted selfish (and rather weak if you think about it) fools are to blame for that NOT God. This is especially true because no man can reach true stable success without a woman keeping him together long enough to actually get there. Many idiots reach "success" and abandon the "wives of their youth" and without fail rot and implode. Becoming full of yourself and throwing away the woman that made you what you are is a grave sin indeed with just rewards.
