Sexism Has A Source

Everyone’s heard the story of Adam and Eve. There’s a serpent, and it tells the Eve to eat from that tree. Eve is stupid, and therefore eats from the tree God specifically told her not to eat out of. Adam follows suit, and soon they are left in only their skin to protect them (In clearer terms, naked).

God decides to show his more human side in Genesis 3, demonstrating pure emotions when he quite literally gets pissed at both Adam and Eve for deceiving him. Here we see a different “God,” referred to as “Lord God,” being in human form and being the Lord that rules, and such things.

When he finds out about what they have done, God tells the serpent:

“Curse are you above all livestock and all the wild animals! You will crawl on your belly and you will eat dust all the days of our life. And I will put enmity between your offspring and hers; he will crush your head and you will strike his heel.”

So it turns out snakes, or rather serpents, weren’t always the slithering little scary creatures we are used to seeing in everyday life. Actually, there was a time when there was a smart, talking, walking, interactive one who so happened to do a bad dead and ended up crawling on its stomach for all eternity.

Yes. God indeed has power.

That same day, He also made so that childbearing is painful, work is to be done I order to get food, and husbands shall rule over their wives.

What is it with these sexist conditions? If God is neither a man or a woman, why should he make it so that it seems as if he favors man and views women in a low light?

And why did he make childbearing painful? Just to make us women’s lives that much harder, considering we have to have awful cramps, suffer through childbearing, raise a child, and be a house mother while we are also encouraged to work and make a living?

All the while men don’t have to shave in order to look attractive, and all they have to do is work and get money and then that deal is made.

Now, I am still not awaiting the time when I have to have my own child, however far from now that may be (and I’m hoping it’s a while).

I have come to one conclusion (or merely something I have figured since my early existence) which is: Men are a lazy, arrogant, laid-back specimen whose only problem in life is money, while women are meant to suffer, forever.
