Knitting and Financing: Where"s The Disparity?

Ever since I was a child, it has always bothered me why certain disparities between men and women exist when it has long ago been established by the Almighty that every human being has been created equal.
More often than not, men were the most privileged.
They were allowed to go to school and take up courses, which included engineering, education, architecture, and the likes.
Women, on the other hand, were made to stay at home where they could learn all the chores; and if they had already bore offspring, they had to learn the craft of rearing up a child.
Thus, when women had started to excel in a particular field that dominated men, she had already become a threat to them.
Nevertheless, there are still those who choose to follow the path that has been paved for them.
Albeit a lot of women have already been chosen as CEOs of a particular company, there are still those who have chosen to give up their career and take care of their children - if there are any - and simply serve their relatives at home.
That is why it is no longer surprising if their hobbies include knitting, sewing, or cross-stitching.
I even know a few who excel in these crafts.
They know every pattern and needle there is.
They have already memorized by heart the knitting patterns for babies and adults and the crochet terms used.
In fact, when I ask them about something that involves knitting, they could answer me without having to recall every detail about it.
It was as though they have already memorized and recorded those details in their heads.
So much for the disparity, right?Yet when we really come to think of it, most women were really created for these things.
It appears that they were shaped to remember the knitting needle sizes and knitting needle conversion charts than analyze financial statements which most men do.
Possibly most of you would argue that who they are has something to do with how they were brought up.
That could also be true, but their inclination really relies on arts and the likes.
Numbers are not their thing.
They leave it to men although the feminist would not allow such to happen - women empowerment as they would put it.
I rest my case now.
I do not support whatever inequality has been dominating the world.
Yet I do believe that it still depends on them - may it be men or women - to earn the respect and dignity they deserve.
