I was being deliberately ambiguous
Who is easier to indoctrinate, men or women?

I think men are more likely to be fanatics. More likely to kill in God's name. More likely to abuse power. More likely to start mega churches and lust for prominence. I think that's what happens when religion and testosterone mix. Women seem to practice a more empathetic, compassionate nurturing faith. I believe just as women are more likely to stay with cheaters, they seem more likely to rationalize staying in a religion they know is messed up. I think that's why they seem to shut down if I mention anything bad about the JWs.

I could not be less sexist. Why do you make that accusation?
"Jesus is my Boyfriend" christianity is a real issue that is of concern to many in the evangelical and charismatic movements.
I am perfectly serious by suggesting that women are more likely to be attracted by the personae of Jesus than men are.
Look at the content of many hymns, songs, prayers and images. They are perfectly designed to chase away a hetrosexual man.

Lot's of young mothers study with JWs for some reason. I noticed that as a very real pattern.
