I will be honest, I would be lying if I said that I did not find the accusations against women slightly funny at first. After I read through some of these points of why women are susceptible to demons I found them to be directly correlated to most the stereotypes a lot of men have towards to women. Women are always physically weaker, women are always intellectually less capable, and women always give in to their emotional desires. All three of these points and more were made by the reading and it was strange. I never realized these sexist points have been constant throughout every scene of history until it hit me tonight. People are so inept at learning to accept new values that we generalize things in the same way for thousands of year. Sure people can make a few laws that make it look and sound better to the public, but the same inadequate views exist.
