There are differences. I'm not blinded by irritation enough to deny it nor will I deny that women aren't perfect. But they have been repeated played as if not even living, breathing equals to a man. And when it comes to protecting women, they can't even do that much most of the time. If they think a woman has failed them, she's shuffled off, marriage broken. No compromise, no sense of respect then. Off to find a virgin or a younger woman who they can mold until she disappoints.
I damn the Bible's Eve for this perception of women. The fucking submissive wife of Adam. Some say by being made from a piece of Adam, she is his equal but that's a lie. You split someone down in half if you want an idea of equal, not a rib.
