What is so wrong with being UNEQUAL?
I read Unequal, and also scanned peoples comments on it and my problem is why are people so oblivious to what is really going on? The real thing that is driving the “men better than women” idea/argument is RELIGION. The Muslim people are a prime example. People don’t understand much of what they do but all their actions are religion based. Same thing here in America. Everytime someone argues religion to me, I am constantly told that not everyone believes in God. That may be so but everyone has some sort of a religion. If you don’t believe in God then that is your religion, NON BELIEVER. There is so many questions about each and everything, because we are all aware of the reigious faiths and they all have different outcomes. You talk about women submitting to their husbands as if that is a man made idea. That is alledgedly from GOD. People who are true followers will not sit around and worry about the small things such as men being over women. I just find it to be wrong to try to argue this idea of equality between the sexes because, no matter how many things I read or how many times I am lectured at, my belief systems IS NOT FROM MAN, but God.

I agree with you. Sometimes I feel like in ancient times the men would interpret the laws of god diffently so that they could keep women under their control. Also, I see it a lot where people say that they really believe whatever, but they don’t act like it in their everyday lives. Maybe that could have something to do with it as well?

Great job with this – although I would say that there is plenty wrong with being unequal.
