 I went to my father when I had questions about the Bible. I was probably in the seventh or eighth grade when I wrote in the margins of my Bible, God, why don't you like women? See, I couldn't understand when I read some scenes why women were not counted in genealogies or scenes or named. My father explained to me that this had more to do with the history and context in which the Bible was written, but God really did love women, so I took him at his word.
