Or in effect - neutralized, so if we are pure, we won't be out bewitching these poor defenseless men.

I think men have always been afraid of women and the power they possess so they'd do everything in their (scrawny) power to make it so that women never hold more power than them.

Yes - they do fear us, past - present - and future. They've never gotten over the fact that we can create another human being right in our own bodies. It's the biggest magic - godlike. And so the big 3 contrived to stand on our necks ~ ad infinitum. Just as the apostles were so jealous of Mary Magdalena, she was closest to Jesus, his wife some say.

Men were happy to revere us until they realized they actually were part of the reproductive process. Then it became more of a "conquerer" role, since the penis penetrates the vagina. They got big heads and used their physical strength to back up their ridiculous claims of divinity.

Had to lay claim to there little part of the glory and inflate their penises er a I mean their egos.
