Thank you for your comments. Apparently how I feel is not socially acceptable. Question: Are there not women who express the same sentiment toward men after abuse? If so, are they likewise counseled?

My issues with women ...
by The Berean ini have always viewed women as more clever, manipulative, and intelligent than me.
no, i never walked around voicing my bias ... yet, over time, i must confess i have been afraid of the opposite sex.
it has only been in recent times that i have begun to fairly evaluate each individual by their conduct and not their gender.. why do i bring this matter up on this particular site?

To me it's all relative. If you can't fly, a car does just fine. If you don't have a car, a bike looks good. If you don't have a bike, walking is as good as it gets. If you can't walk, someone pushing you in a wheelchair is a Godsend. So it is with faith. For those with nothing in the way of material possessions or a social life any persuation elevates them. JWs attract many who belong to nothing else.

Dudess,
That admonition is only applicable when there are both a Father and Mother in the family. I am speaking strictly from the point of view of a "fatherless boy." Can you give me that?

Sorry, but not all men are leaders of their family ... and wives can be morons also ...we only know what we see in public.

If we want to pick apart words' isn't: "They are second class, "in submission" no matter what kind of moron or bastard the man in the family is" a sexist accusation which might not always be true?

beksbks:
Perhaps my comments were " shortsighted and ignorant" yet they were the truth as I currently believe. I would also suggest that our entire existence requires prejudice. Remember, I said "My issues with women," ... not yours. It's rather surprising that on a site where JWs are so often villified as a group that someone should so strongly point out that my opinion amounts to an inaccurate "generalization."

OnTheWayOut:
I'm sure your points are valid. I can only defend my observations by saying that I, as others, never had a father-image in my life to indict. Mom ran everything. So I probably don't possess all the pieces of the puzzel ...
Yet, I kinda still believe that in today's organization if you took away the women, it woulds all fall apart. Sure, Russell aparently had no need for sex in the beginning, yet from my observation men more often than not are trying to please their wives who make everyday married life a lot easier for being "spiritual.". But, your experience may well be different ...

What are the benefits for us to get the very true facts at the first place?

In my opinion, we DO get the true facts at the first place. "Truth" is ever changing and subject to enlightenment. Sooo ... whatever imput first occurs, those are temporarily the true facts. I do not believe any other process is possible.

If it appeared that I am trying to justify harmful acts, I am sorry.
It is those little babies siezed and carried off by force that have been victimized. It is many children of JW homes that have been emotionally raped to the point that their view of sex is demented. There can be no excuse for such treatment.
