The deeper you look into the reasons women have not yet achieved full equality, even in the West, the deeper you find you must go. In the way we teach the story of Adam and Eve, we set up a world where men come first and every problem is the woman’s fault. It won’t go away until we make it go away.
So long, Adam and Eve
