Why must girls like pink, and boys wear blue? Why must boys like soccer and football whilst girls enjoy romantic drama? This unnatural schism between the sex does little more than segregate the two main divisions of humanity into two neat groups. Such organization does little than facilitate groupings of primary modes of expected conduct within a society. Would society collapse in the absence of such rigid guidelines? Affirmations of such roles are met with approval, whilst any significant deviation is often criticized or even punished. Fluidity in definition need not be the root of destructive chaos. It is unnatural for life in all its variations to be subjected to rigid compartmentalization. There must be some degree of fluidity to enable some deviation from norms. Otherwise, dissatisfaction and associated unhappiness will be the likeliest result.
Must a presumably omnipotent deity be presented exclusively in a male form? Can there be balance between the masculine and feminine in divinity? One cannot hope to contain omnipotence just as one will find difficulty describing nothingness. To thus limit the greater Powers can amount to no less than blasphemy in claiming limitations to omnipotential power. In the grand scheme of things, only balance is the acceptable endpoint. If there can ever be a point of perfection, it can only be perfect balance. Anything else would cause an ever-shifting tendency towards a direction that can only lead to an ultimately lopsided universe. In seeking the triumph of one side, one is directly demanding the demise of its natural opposite.
