in Judaism masculinity was not, and is not, a supreme value. read Daniel Boyarin if you can't see this for yourself.

In all ancient societies without exception, masculinity was ( and to some extent still is) the supreme value.

you don't know much about judaism for someone who calls people "antisemites" as Boyarin shows, jewish "masculinity" is defined by passivity and a proximity to passive homosexuality https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Boyarin …

I don’t have time to read now. It’s late. Anyhow, what is it saying, that women were in charge?

Fine,but those passive men were leading the ancient society.Maybe not as bad as the Romans where women were property,but they weren’t feminist either.All ancient societies,with the exception of some very isolated tribes were patriarchal.Circ. wasn’t invented with malicious intent

depends on what you mean by malicious they considered it pietyhttps://twitter.com/dkingpower7/status/1095478877722501121 …
