When did the games start between opposite sexes?

Just push forward.

I don't play games. I just sexualize them. If they didn't have a vagina I probably wouldn't even bother associating with them.

When did the games start between opposite sexes?

---

Genesis 3:6

That's still common relatively speaking. Most of the world views women differently than men. As inferior in some specific capacities.

The games women and men play seem to be a relatively recent phenomenon. Stock market dating. Playing uninterested. Play one off of another. The no labels. Etc.

FEMALE, n. One of the opposing, or unfair, sex.

The Maker, at Creation's birth,
With living things had stocked the earth.
From elephants to bats and snails,
They all were good, for all were males.
But when the Devil came and saw
He said: "By Thine eternal law
Of growth, maturity, decay,
These all must quickly pass away
And leave untenanted the earth
Unless Thou dost establish birth"—
Then tucked his head beneath his wing
To laugh— he had no sleeve— the thing
With deviltry did so accord,
That he'd suggested to the Lord.
The Master pondered this advice,
Then shook and threw the fateful dice
Wherewith all matters here below
Are ordered, and observed the throw;
Then bent His head in awful state,
Confirming the decree of Fate.
From every part of earth anew
The conscious dust consenting flew,
While rivers from their courses rolled
To make it plastic for the mould.
Enough collected (but no more,
For niggård Nature hoards her store)
He kneaded it to flexible clay,
While Nick unseen threw some away.
And then the various forms He cast,
Gross organs first and finer last;
No one at once evolved, but all
By even touches grew and small
Degrees advanced, till, shade by shade,
To match all living things He'd made
Females, complete in all their parts
Except (His clay gave out) the hearts.
"No matter," Satan cried; "with speed
I'll fetch the very hearts they need"—
So flew away and soon brought back
The number needed, in a sack.
That night earth rang with sounds of strife—
Ten million males each had a wife;
That night sweet Peace her pinions spread
O'er Hell— ten million devils dead!

Do you perceive that one role is lesser? It's not a partnership where both are needed and optimal?

I believe that in some capacities - such as physical strength - It's obvious men have the upper hand.

As far as intellectual capacity and potential to "do good work" or be a positive influence - Not only are both equal... but that equality is essential when it comes to raising the next generation.


I keep bringing up religion from a purely historical viewpoint - Not as an aspect of religion itself. My Mom was a history teacher and I've long been fascinated by the Dark Ages... which was when a lot of the culling of women from potential roles took place.

But women have more dexterity. Not a competition of trait vs trait, I honestly feel that complement vs complement, it all equals out to form an equality or balance.

However, it has come to fruition that most want to compare trait vs trait and force equality, which is illogical, and even worse take many of women's strengths and make them weaknesses.

example: My 7 y/o niece was given a crochet set by her grandma. She loves it, and she tried teaching but no matter how hard I tried, my sausage fingers could not make a second row. It actually pissed me off a bit, and a little 7 year old is laughing at me because it's so easy for her, and me, an adult, can't make one fricking loop!

Now, when she hits 13-21 years old, will anyone make her feel bad about crocheting if she keeps it up? Will it be seen as a demeaning task of the past?

But that's for another night, I have to finish my fish and watch the Walking Dead.
