Why do women continue to participate in a Religion that degrades them and continues to place them in a class of 2nd rate species?

Christianity as a Religion to be followed by Families ?
Why would I want my daughter involved in such Misogyny ?
Assuming this is a sincere (and not a rhetorical) question, the answer is simple: don't go to church. Or if you feel that you must, go to a liberal church. The liberal churches have generally found creative ways of "explaining away" most of the negative stuff in the bible.
I'm not a bibliolater, but a lot of the versus you posted don't seem to say anything negative about women, nor does Luke 2:22 say anything about Mary becoming unclean (other than that they had to get their baby Jesus to do the "cleansing" ceremony after he was born). Some verses did say that women are to be inferior/submissive to their husbands (but everything in the bible was only for the cultures at their times, no? That is why people buy and support publishers).
To me, God's misogyny is proof that he is the creation of men. Why try to talk your wife and daughter into going to church? If they wanted to go, they would, right?

Women have always been the care giver with man and women independence from man is only 100 years or less , so you can not blame God ...... Still there are more women who go to church and know God than there are men who go ......Tell your wife that and may be she will go or get jealous

Maybe someone can show me how I can convince my Wife to attend church with me ?
Can someone explain to me How i can convince my Family to go to Church ?
The much bigger question is why YOU are going AND trying to convince others to do so now that you see the moral bankruptcy of the source text.
Why would you seek a faith that treats your daughters differently than your sons?
