Craig Bratcher:
And men are different in intellectual terms,
for men are known for their strength of understanding
and their memory as compared to women.
Women are weaker than men in memory and
forget more than men do. This is well known,
for most of the reputable scholars in the world are men.
There are some women who are more intelligent and
have better memories than some men,
but this does not cancel out the general rule.
Most cases are as we have described above.
With regard to emotions, men speak of them when they get angry
or when they are happy,
but women are affected by the slightest emotional effects,
so their tears flow at the slightest emotional provocation.
Jihad is obligatory for men,
but jihad in the sense of fighting is not obligatory for women.
This is the mercy of Allaah towards them, and consideration for their nature.
Edy Benjamin:
…and then we evolved, from the fig leaf to thinking for ourselves.
Once upon a time “(it) is well known” the world was flat.
The world has just been too dang bloody under paternalism.
Give it up!!!
