As much as many black women have beat down black men spiritually, financially, emotionally etc, I wonder if you have a balanced perspective to speak about that as well. As a family and relationship counselor who has counseled thousands of couples, men, women and families, I have to stick to the whole truth and all the facts. Bias is dangerous.

But that does not mean the roles are the same. Clearly it was Adam then woman who he in fact named her Eve after the fall. Clearly Pastor is a Latin word for Shepherd and there were no sheperdesses. Clearly chain of command is father, Son then Holy spirit – all masculine. Clearly it is Christ then his bride.

What many women do not understand is how thee kingdom authority works. In God’s kingdom you can have three persons with three different roles yet all of them are equal. They are no less than the other. that is how the Trinity operates but that is so foreign to human beings that women often rebel against it.

The Bible specifically directs women to teach the women. God does not have double standards but man has plenty of them. Yet man’s double standards which are wrong should not be confused with the authority god has set up for the kingdom which is reflected in both the home and the church. God is consistent.
