[quote]I believe 'the higher degree' assigned to men over women is not because women are intellectually poorer, but it is because of the physical nature of the woman. And by that I also do not mean that less stronger than men, because women wrestlers and weight lifters have shown they can be just as strong or stronger if they build their muscles.

The physical nature I am talking about that leaves a woman not able to do the things a man would do are pregnancy, menstruation and breast feeding the baby. Pregnancy causes many women to be sick, some cannot even move from their bed or eat anything. While some women in their monthly periods have painful cramps that hinders them from doing their normal chores. And a breast feeding mother has to feed the baby every three hours round the clock 24 hours a day sometimes.

These limitations that Allah has set on women restrict her activities. Can you expect a woman who is sick because of pregnancy every other year or in pain due to menstrual cramps to be the leader of the household. That is why I believe men have their responsibilities and women have theirs. It is not because women are dumber than men.

And Allah knows best.[/quote]
