Kay – It is this mysterious link to “leadership” that has me constantly baffled. I as much as anyone here celebrates differences between males and females. But what do those differences have to do with leadership? I can think of nothing. In fact, as I stated on a comment in another post, if anything all that testosterone flowing through us guys can have a detrimental effect on leadership ability (makes us do rash, risky, aggressive things without thinking through the consequences) That is what is so confusing. They claim men are “designed” to lead, but can never even once point to a design feature that yields better leaders. And this is the best – they claim men are more logical (a scientifically disproven claim) but employ no logic what-so-ever in their arguments. As a man, I have to say it’s a little embarrassing.

Here is the dirty little secret. Men, if anything, because of our testosterone levels, are designed to lust after power. Now, of course, I don’t claim God desires this greed in us. But the fall titls us that way and there is no clearer indication of that than “he will rule over you”.
