Jesus revealed the error of adhering to the LAW for the wrong reasons, i.e. trying to earn your way to heaven through works. The Law was imperfect in that it made allowances for the ignorance of mankind and their mixed up ways. Man is constantly trying to create a counterfeit for God's perfected plan. Man comes up with their own schemes to circumvent God's ideal. It always results in total chaos, exploded relationships and messed up human lives in the end.

You are correct.
You are also viewing this from a perch atop the pinnacle of female liberation. Western women have more choice and control over their destiny than any class of women in history. However, the extreme feminists, the ones who drive the political agendas, continue to push for more and more favor and privilege for women. I'm sure that you can see that the flip side of this coin is that there exists
less favor and privilege for men. Western civilization has handed over the keys to the traditional family to women. The entire spectrum of family and gender law is nowadays institutionally biased
against men. Women are societally encouraged to be self-absorbed, to seek self-fulfillment and romantic, unrealistic, ideals in relationships.
In light of the twin facts that boys raised by single mothers are far more likely to end up in jail, and approximately 75% of divorce is initiated by women these days, how would you evaluate the civilizational impact of taking women's liberation to the other extreme?
