The Baha'i Studies Listserv Ok fair enough. I was just giving food for thought not making a 'full argument' as such. But in any case there are apparent differences in man and woman that go beyond the physical. Even still physical differences necessitate different roles in the physical world. Why have all the known manifestations of God up until this point been only men? There is an order in things and in inequality equality is found. Why should women have the right to be the first educators of their children and not men? Why should God make men have the right to be on the house of Justice and not women? How are these different? Both are ordinances of God and stipulate inequality. My point is harmonay comes through apparent inequality. I dont know the full reasoning but I think that argument can be applied to say man and women are not equal in 'role and function' and never will be.
