Why are religious men so hostile towards women?

[NataliaNYC]

They want to ban abortion, they want to take away women's rights. Why are religious men misogynists?

[lightbulb27]

because they feel for the life you hold which oddly a lot of women seem to emotionally discard.

the inverse is why so many women are so willing to discard the life they make. It's clearly an emotional issue.

There's an instant of time for which on one side... it's ok to stick a knife in the globule of cells... even if it's 8 months in or so, but on the other side of the line... you would consider it a horrendous crime if someone hurt those globule of cells.

It's a strange thing... the human mind... The thing is, at some point, it isn't your body... it is something attached to your body and so people think they have some right to boss you around.

Personally, I lean towards your rights since you contain the life, but there should be no profit motive whatsover in whomever is executing your offspring before they breathe. They should be executing your children out of the goodness of their hearts... if that's so possible.

That’s kind of a crazy generalization, but there is some truth to it nonetheless. Religion teaches that women should be subservient to men, so when men who have been fed this indoctrination encounter women who don’t subscribe to that bullshit, they have a problem with it.

The patriarchy is built in the foundations of religion, men believe that because God is depicted as male that they are implicitly better than women. Everything wrong with the patriarchy started with religion

Because controlling women’s bodies = controlling women’s power.

And a lot of them are absolutely terrified of what happens if they don’t have that leash anymore.

The common denominator seems to be the religious texts or their interpretation of them as a way to attempt to control women. When they can't they throw fits like children.

Religious men are good theyre not misogynists, it's intel that want to take away women's right and abortions is killing of a baby it's wrong.

Control. Control. Control. That it!!

[dreamstar72]

Because these jerks want to control women’s rights and power.

That has not been my experience, but then I don't live in an Islamic country.

[zombiewoof]

I think women should be able to decide that for themselves

[Anonymous]

Because most religious people are patriarchal chauvinists.

[jahaims]

Most religions put males above females

[seeyounexttuesday]

killing your child isn’t a right. Hope this helps.
