I know there are things against them but its just natural they have a curiosity. Personally I feel that God let it happen and it was a plan. But who knows. Guess thats why there was Jesus to come and save us. But today there is nothing against women in the Christian religion unlike other religions such as in Islam they don't even get to choose who they marry. Most catholics follow stuff like that. Generality of christians today don't follow any of that and wouldn't if they found out. Christianity is probably one of the biggest religions where people don't follow certain things in there religion. Only thing that MATTERS in Christianity is belief in Jesus. Thats its whole foundation. Wikipedia Christianity all you get is followers of Jesus basically. All the extremist are just paranoid from getting thrown into hell or brainwashed since childhood or whatever else reasons. Bible has had many excluded books and has been rewritten so anything you really read could be false or true. A whole 50/50 choice to follow this or this. Thats why people say you just have to believe. Also Jesus who was supposivley God on earth and realized how easy it was to sin and it is easy and so he died for sins and reincarnated and fought off death and gave salvation for our sins. Thats by belief of some Christian scholars my neighbor is a religious scholar and he's told me some of this. Also you can be forgiven of anything. Personally to me the best books in the bible are Exodus, Revelations, Matthew, Psalms, Job, Acts, Corinthians, Matthew, Luke, John, and Genesis or books that are extremely reasonable. Genesis might not sound like it but has some good things we believe. Also rasta I'm just wondering are you atheist or agnostic?
