Since this thread is currently obsessed with your words, I will add to them with the most important part you left out. That being spiritual life, our soul.
No one in this thread has argued that physically men and women are different. I have argued that the physical differences indicate a functional difference in life. Obviously females predominately nurture the young offspring and is proof of functional/psychological differences between men and women.
Some argue that despite physical and functional differences, in spiritual relationships there is no difference between men and women. They quote one verse for support.
Galatians 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
Now learn from 1 Corinthians 12:12-31 that one does not mean equal. It further teaches a multiplicity of roles in the Church. We are one with Christ in the spirit, does that mean we are equal to him? Certainly NOT. So just because men and women are one in the spirit, does not imply that we have equal roles spiritually.
Now the verses that explicitly address the OP have been posted enough even if they have not been adequately refuted, but I would like to point out a nuance of 1 Corinthians 11:7 A man ought not to cover his head, since
he is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man.
What does it mean that man is in the image of God? It certainly is not anything related to our flesh and blood bodies, since God had no flesh and blood at creation. God must be talking about something spiritual. I look to Genesis 1 to see the difference between animals and men, how we are created in God's image is not our flesh and blood but our having souls.
Now the hard question, how are men and women different in a spiritual sense? We both have souls that can be filled with Satan or the Holy Spirit. So how can we be different? I see a parallel between women bearing flesh and men bearing the spiritual life.
To start with, I have recently learned to appreciate the difference in scripture between conceived and beget. Of course you have to look in the KJV for such language, not my normal study Bible. When scripture uses conceive, it always is addressing something that happens in females, human or animal. When scripture uses the word beget it is always talking about what a man does, except in one case where God the Father begets his Son.
So why do we need two different words to describe the beginning of life? The obvious answer is that there are two different kinds of life. Both animals and humans have flesh and blood and the creation of flesh and blood starts with conception between a male and a female.
Now what the antiabortion Christians hold dear is that it is not just biological life that starts at conception, but in humans a soul also has beginning. To emphasize our uniqueness with animals the KJV uses beget to describe when a man creates offspring. The subtlety that is lost is that both soul and flesh have beginning, and the greater is the soul for it is what separates us from the animals. Now the important thing to note is that texts with beget refer only to an action of a man. Every text with conceive tells of what happened to a female, animal or woman.
The best proof of this is that when the Holy Spirit conceived in Mary, it created only flesh and blood life and not a new soul as Jesus' soul did not begin at conception. This is the reason why there had to be a virgin birth of Jesus. This is the only way for Jesus to be both God and man. God in the Spirit, man in his flesh. The alternative of virgin birth would just be a Spirit possessed man, just like all previous prophets.
So if women bear flesh and are nurturers of it, the parallel is that men bear our souls and are the nurtures of it.
This reasoning may sound new to many, but if you doubt it, answer me how men and women are different spiritually such that men are in the image of God and women are in the image of men. What I propose here fits in line with 1 Corinthians 11:7 for the glory of God/man is spiritual, the glory/beauty of women is the flesh. Men's calling is to nourish the spirit, women are naturally nourishers of the body.
Is it chauvinistic to say women are more beautiful than men? Have I just found scriptural basis for why men so much "appreciate" female beauty?
