Created
Notice;
this
is chapter one of Gen.
Gen.
1:27
So
God created man in his own image,
in the image of G-d created he him; male
and female
created he them.
G-d
spoke to equally to male and female,
until the fall when the man was put over the women as a curse.
Notice also the man, serpent and woman were all then curse at the
same time.
Gen.

the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy
conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy
desire shall

As man was made a social creature, it was not proper that he should
be alone; for to be alone, i.e. without a matrimonial companion, was
not good. Hence we find that celibacy in general is a thing that is
not good, whether it be on the side of the man or of the woman. Men
may, in opposition to the declaration of God, call this a state of
