A Question:

When God created Adam, He made him complete and self-sufficient. But then He decided it was NOT good that man should be alone. It is the first time in the Bible that God says anything is not good. So God made a woman. God could have made another complete, self-sufficient being to keep man company. But He didn't. Instead, He made man incomplete, made a woman who was also incomplete, and then decreed that the two should come together to be complete. Which leads me to my question: Why did God make women different? What does He expect of me BECAUSE of that difference? I am surrounded by women who want to be men. They want the same tasks, the same responsibilities. Christian women say, "There is no male and female in the Lord." Maybe in terms of salvation. However, if that is really true, why did God make us different?
