Not to anger you Binder, buy my reading comprehension is fine.
1. The sources you quoted are not credible, nor scholarly.
2. My sources and harsh reality in the feminism threads, are credible. In fact if you doubt how credible they are go to the U.S. Marshals lock up and ask how many of those guys had good relationships with their fathers. Seconldy, common science teaches and reality, and the weight room that on average men are stronger than women.
3. I made no religious points, your haterd for Christianity and bias toward the Christian faith are known but yet juvenile. If I said the same ignorant things about your false faith of worshipping a pagan diety to your own hurt, would that please you? I have no need to insult anyone's faith nor their intelligence. I respect you Binder and others of your faith too much for trhat.
4. If you can give me scholarly sources and science to support your outrageous claims then I will change my opinion.
Here is information on AIDS/HIV from the CDC, a reputuable source.
