If women put out to any man that asked, all violence would end tomorrow. That's why women are really responsible for all the wars and **** we've had.

But Christianity, as it was taught to Celts, Gauls, and Goths, attributed to their eventual removal of women from the forefront of their societies, which built Europe as a typically bad place for women.

Women were never the head of any of those three society is a group sense, as any casual reasing of their history will show. Why do you think this?

I recall reading about a British study a decade ago, showing that women are more frequent to commit domestic violence than men. But when men do it, they hit harder and make more physical damage, so the police and hospital statistics mostly shows male violence. Feminists have been very silent about this study.

Oh ye of little knowledge, know you nothing of the sacred goddess?

"Women were highly honored, female symbolism formed the most sacred images in the religious cosmos, and the relationship with motherhood was the central elements of the social fabric; the society was held together by common allegiance to the customs of the tribe loosely organized around the traditions of the goddess" (28).

What appears to have dismantled this society was the warrior culture and the spread of Christianity into Ireland.

Women are plenty violent when it suits them. Most sociopaths I have met were female.

There's plenty of data. But I'd be hard pressed to find it, considering I haven't studied anthropology for 5+ years, and I have no idea where the text books or notebooks are.

But there was a great deal of data regarding matriarchal societies, especially for them as the foundation of civilization.

Well, given what you know, I don't think you'll have any problem finding stuff on the internet. Could you humour me for a moment and try?

[The Emperor Fabulous]

Well, first off, see above

[Boris Godunov]

Well you can't lay the blame entirely on Christianity for the position of women in Europe. It's not as if the pre-Christian Romans weren't heavily patriarchal.

[Mrs. Tuberski]

agathon is right, women tend to me more deliberate then men when it comes to violence they methodically plan the attack to were a man will jsut act on the moment. I dont think relegion has a thing to do with thier actions. Most women will go for the juglar and hit it. Why?? My guess is jealousy is more prominate in a woman and the need to be lifted above others to prove a point.

Im not sure bout the brain structure but i have known more woman ready to fight then i do men, Especially if there is alochol involved. I have also seen more women murder their mates then the opposite. Men may be more prone to be violent, but women plan more devious violent ones. This is my opinon of course.

It just goes to show what an opinion is worth.

Some studies show that women commit domestic violence an equal amount, but the intent is usually not to cause real harm or to dominate their partner unlike men. It's usually stuff like open handed pushing a bigger person.
