If any woman (or man) is bothered or offended by any of these posts, please let me know and I’ll answer. Otherwise I think I’ve addressed it on other threads.


@haimy
Hashem created Adam as one male / female figure, and blessed them as Adam. Then He separated them.

The gemara learns from this that man is not called Adam and is incomplete until he is joined with his other half, woman.

Yes we have different roles which have different qualities and which are superior in some ways and inferior in others. But one is not inherently better than the other.

Aizer knegdo does not imply that she is beneath man inherently. If anything Knegdo implies she is there to keep him in check and together they reach balance.
