if we think about it, then compared to males, god has cursed females with many things- be it virginity, their monthly menstruation etc. also, its they who have to bear a baby and not only carry it for 9 months, but then cause disfiguration of one's body figure due to childbirth. its they who have to feed him. and also, unlike men, women have been cursed with breasts that they have to keep managing all the time since puberty. females are physically weaker than men, have shorter average heights and weaker muscles. females are more susceptible to osteoporosis with age, and more prone to breast cancer. does it mean that god too thinks that females are weaker and so he designed them to be inferior to men?

adding to the insult and injury, its mostly boys who excel at mathematics and sciences. almost all inventions and discoveries are done by males. and studies show that males have higher average IQ. why this distinction done by god?

Welcome to the 14th Century! Your list of "weaknesses" or "curses" have been debunked for an awfully long time now! There are plenty of disadvantages in being a man - it's all relative. The ability to bear children seems like quite an argument that women are stronger, not weaker, than men. If men had to bear children, the human race would have died out eons ago!
If your supposed "religion" causes you to think this way, then I highly recommend that you leave your cave and check out the advances that have been made in the last 100 years!
Assuming you're a male, you've certainly made the case that men are far less intelligent than women by your inability to write and spell and punctuate in your question.

I'm not really sure what you are trying to prove, but if girls weren't 'cursed' with menstruation, then none of us would even be here. Some women would feel the biggest gift god ever gave them was being able to carry a baby. And we all fall apart with life, we all become weaker physically, that is inevitable...it doesn't matter if you are man or women, we are not immortal in the physical sense. Strength of character is far more important than physical strength and this is something both men and women can develop equally.
As for IQ's, that is not entirely correct about men having higher IQ's than women....men have a more diverse range of IQ's, meaning men make up the majority of genius' in the world, but they also make up the majority of dumbasses. Here is a transcript of Harvard Professor Summers' comments regarding this subject: http://www.thecrimson.com/article.aspx?ref=505844.
Regarding breast cancer; did you know this can also affect men. Men are very much affected by cancer too, particularly testicular cancer, but there is just not enough awareness about it and nowhere near as much emphasis is put on it, compared to breast cancer.
I don't believe god has made anyone inferior or superior. I don't believe that was god's plan.
HTH : )

Chameleon???
When Jesus died on the cross, it was for the woman to.
If you will look in your Bible God, in the garden, cursed them both.
The woman did not receive breasts at being cursed.
She was created with breasts as was everything else about her anatomy.
If a woman is cursed by having breasts, why are men blessed by the same breasts.
All female animal species goes through menstruation.
When man and woman are living as God intended, that is, "(A man leaves his mother and cleaves to his wife)", there is not a more perfect union.
Virginity is not a curse. Remember, Jesus was born of a virgin.
Perhaps you should study the subject some more.
P.S. you missed one.
Women are Softer, (mmmm), and, Smell, (mmmm), Better and Gooder and Greater than men.
Most men count that a blessing to.

Honestly? It's simply the setting because adversity breeds character. Things aren't so tough for me in America so I'm out of shape, lazy, and oh so content. I'm probably much weaker and inferior than my Russian counterpart. But, I also am much, much happier and wealthier in a better life. So he can feel free to be stronger, because I'm going to have a beer now and make an omelette before hitting up a party. Does that make me strong? Nope. But it makes me content.

I don't think that being a woman is so bad. I love being a woman. It's a beautiful feeling to carry a life. Feeding babies is not a bad thing; it's enjoyable; especially when you watch them eat finger foods, it's the way they're little fingers and hands move. It's not that bad at all. The disfiguration can be done away with if we work on it. Having breasts aren't all that bad; keep mine in shape, so it depends upon what you do with what you have.
The last part of your question is women are designed to be protected by men while they protect their secrets and the family nest. A woman who fails to do so is inferior and, or she is no woman.

Males were females in the womb until the fetus received a burst of testosterone. XX is the default chromosome (If I'm wrong, someone please correct me.) Most men were inventors, but your leaving out some women who didn't get credit or were ignored. Males may be better at mathematics and science, (In this country at least. In Japan the rate is similar. *fake gasp*) but females are better at reading comprehension and have a bigger vocabulary.

Women are not weaker than men, they are stronger. They live 8-10 years longer than men and the gap is widening. Women are healthier and are less prone to suffer from the major cause of death, cardiovascular diseases. The average IQ of men and women is the same, although girls usually perform better at schools and universities. You should do some reading, young man. I suggest some medical and scientific books and less religious scriptures...
And not many people, men and women, would agree with your statement that having breasts is a curse ;-)))

There is no god. Male hormones are more suitable to give us calmed, steady moods to pursue a problem to its logical conclusion. However for the grind of everyday life women do well don't you think?

God didn't curse women and he didn't curse Eve. Adam(PBUH*) and Eve repented to ALLAH and ALLAH made Adam(PBUH*) the first prophet of Islam. He sent them down in two seperate places on the Earth and the finally found each other. ALLAH made women have periods and pain in child birth because He wanted them to muliply the Earth. He made women weaker than men because it's a woman's job to have and raise children. He made Adam stronger because women need to be protected from the world.

Goodness gracious, the harvest is truly indeed plentiful and few there is to till it. My dear son, God didnt think females were inferior to men thats why he cursed them. In fact men and women were created equally in the beginning of time. If you read your Bible you'll see that it says in the book of Genesis that God cursed Eve because she disobeyed his commandment,which then caused all women to be cursed. In that, He made all women to be inferior to men, all women to have increased pain in child bearings and other things of that sort. It clearly shows me that this world is indeed slipping but who am I to judge. Ill let God deal with that.
