SEXUAL EQUALITY

In: New Religions and SpiritualitiesAbstract: A fundamental Bahá'í teaching is equality of the sexes. This question is addressed on two fronts: first, the need to abolish culturally-produced differences between men and women; second, importance of challenging theoretical inconsistencies in Bahá'í discussions. Failure to do so has reinforced male supremacist ideology. Individual inner transformation must precede the outward expression of sexual justice.
