Explain Corinthians then. Here's some quotations from it.

"For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man."
"For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man."
"Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man. "
- 11:7-9

"Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law.
"And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church."
- 14:34 - 35

"Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord."
- 3:18

And that's just one book! The Bible is anti-feminism and anti-gender equality. It teaches that woman are to be silent slaves to their husbands for no logical reason. In fact the only justification given is that Adam was created first...which isn't a rational reason for one gender being superior.
