I've pondered this so much. Most religions, even though they are male-dominated, boast a predominately female population. I've tried and tried to understand why otherwise independent women would give up their autonomy to a man-led faith and just recently I think I understand why...women, much more so than men, are in need of protection. There are so many bastards out there that hurt us that it makes us want a father figure that cares about us...well...that's what I think anyway...discuss!
Why do women love religion?

If most of the men you meet are bastards, you need to ask yourself why just as I would if I thought all women are bitches.

I never said (wrote) that most men are bastards...what are you reading into?

What you actually said was:
...women, much more so than men, are in need of protection. There are so many bastards out there that hurt us
while you didn't say "most men", you did say, "so many bastards" and "women much more so than men" indicating
1. A large number, and
2. A larger proportion of men than women.

I'm going to start a thread... Why are there so few men in the organisation? ... Because there's so many Biatches, us men can't stand it.
I bet that would get a few of the ladies backs up!
