The adult female had no control over such a large kid. He did what he wanted.

It is the definition of dysfunctional family that even the well educated female seemed to have lost control.

It gets down to a simple issue that males are used to the issues of physical methods, women are not. The female can't replace the male's role, nor the male replace the female. But one has to have the higher authority, else you insist on the Baby being divided in half. In too many cases, both can't be right without killing the whole.

As much as the dual role sounds good, it doesn't appear to work in high places.

Just as the Jewish temples kept the women at a distance from the Most Holy, that appears well learned from nature's ways.

No one should rule over anyone, BUT everyone have to admit that MEN AND WOMEN CANNOT BE EQUAL!!! we are not meant to be equal, sorry not going to sugarcoat these but men does something best that women cant ever come near and it goes for men as well.
Saying we are all equal is just dumb, and lying to yourself to fit into society.

Right, no one should rule over anyone, but when I think of marriage and children I imagine a ship with two captains. What would happen if one captain gave an order to veer to starboard, while the other captain ordered veer to port?
The crew would be left confused and feeling insecure.
When two parents agree to be equal, it brings about the same confusion and insecurity in the children. One parent says yes, the other says no. Do this/Don't do that.
Shouldn't there be at least an agreement that one parent has final say on matters? I don't care which parent, as long as the child grows up in an environment with consistent rules and without one parent undermining the other.

your right men and women are not equal in abilities.. but both men and women should have equal rights. Rights are something your born with, they should not be given to only a certain group of people. Equal rights for all. But now that i think about it, they're not rights at all, they are privileges. For example, go on wikipedia and type in Japanese Americans 1942.
For those of you who don't know what happened:
Japanese-American internment was the relocation and internment by the United States government in 1942 of about 110,000 Japanese Americans and Japanese who lived along the Pacific coast of the United States to camps called "War Relocation Camps," in the wake of Imperial Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor.[1][2] The internment of Japanese Americans was applied unequally throughout the United States. All who lived on the West Coast of the United States were interned, while in Hawaii, where the 150,000-plus Japanese Americans composed over one-third of the population, an estimated 1,200[3] to 1,800 were interned.[4] Of those interned, 62% were American citizens.[5][6]
When the people needed their rights the most, the government took them away.. You can't take away rights, but you can take away privileges. That's all it is, temporary privileges.

In the times of old those that ruled over others were the kings and queens, and most of that great wealth built via ruling over others is now the roots of capitalism via corportatism. Also, the religions tended to rule and gain huge wealth. Case in point the Eastern (Vatican) and Western Roman Empire (Emperor). Later, the UK Royals, etc.
In order for the few not to rule over the masses, men or women, it means wealth equity. Else, Money Rules
Obviously, it tends to be those with the money make the rules. Most of the big money is held via males. Is the Pope a female or a male? Ever seen the wealth holdings of the Vatican?. Seen any Female Priests?
Should the more general issues of anyone ruling over anyone else apply? Should we notice what is really happening and not keep the view at only a low level, but look at what elects politicians to essentially make the laws for special interests to rule over the little people.
Jesus and the Essene had a more socialistic theme, and the temple elites, kings, rules had the idea of only the few have the bulk of money and power--all males.

Then why did you just make me your foe? We're just chatting; shaking the tree of truth to see if any fruits fall out. Okay, sometimes I get the wrong tree and a bunch of nuts come flying out.

Aww did I hurt your feelings? I agreed with what you wrote in your post because it's true so far as I know. Why shouldn't I consider you a "friendly foe", you certainly are not my friend, why not be grateful you were mentioned at all.

It's not about "How come there's no female priests?!?!", it doesn't matter whether anyone be male or female, so long as the truth is paramount.

Short and sweet - the answer is NO!
If women ruled over Men - there's be no wars and killing - end of.
You also do realise that Woman was portrayed as a Harlet in the Bible - this was a deliberate intention in order that Man would be enabled to rule over Women - well guess what:
It's 2012 and life have moved on - women are now coming into their own at last - trouble with this is, men don't like it as they now have to get off their butts.
Young men nowadays are off their Butts and should be proud of themselves but this has only come about by women refusing to be the Door Mats and substitute Mothers any longer.

Lol no

if women like Margaret thatcher are anything to by then having them rule wouldnt lead to a peaceful society at all.
Though no men shouldn't rule over women at all. The notion is ridiculous.
