Mother Heathen
Well, it was given to a completely different culture, and I assure you that it most certainly was oppressive by today's standards.
The oppressive nature of the text has been brutally imposed by Christians for centuries, and it was not Christianity that changed the way that women relate to men, but from outside criticisms from thinkers who criticized (and criticize) Christians for their sexism. Some modern examples would be from Frued, Neitzsche, and Bertrand Russell. Without their criticisms, Christianity would still be in darkness.
Would you mind defining darkness?
