No, I disagree. The "gold" is in doing things that reduce harm and improve the world via getting more people on the same page about that so we can work together.

Your "religion" is fine - except for the fact that it's been used for thousands of years to oppress and harm women and it's still being used that way today. There is no way to separate out "I'm inherently different from you" from "I'm inherently better than you" in the context of this culture. That justifies not only marginalization and infantilization, it justifies abuse and sexual predation as well.

It's also harming anyone who doesn't fit neatly into those boxes, including non-binary, trans, and other non-conforming people as well as many of the men who are conforming. There's no getting away from that.

But, saying that seems to have no impact on your deeply felt beliefs, so I guess I'm going to stop trying.
