I prayed for a sign that JW's were the truth and that Jehovah existed. I never received an answer to either request.

your pseudonym (translated "The Boss")
You're acting like I went up to some woman and goosed her. Instead of slapping me she said "Oh Boss!". After that I became known as Jefe.
At the risk of exposing myself, here is the real, full story. I took 4 years of Spanish in High School. By the time I was starting my 2rd of Spanish I was better than those who had taken 4 years already. In fact, when we had a non-Spanish speaking substitute, I taught the class. Even when the teacher was there, she would as me to help with language drills in front of the class. As a result, my female Spanish teacher gave me the nickname Jefe. This was my name for in Spanish class my last 2 years of Spanish in High School.
I had a great deal of platonic affection for that teacher, so I kept that nickname in E-mail and online nickname form to remember her by. There you have it. -

Unfortunately, your pseudonym (translated "The Boss") and avitar (angry male), combined with your question provides a psycological profile at least to your ignorance.
Actually the image is a screen grab from Family Guy. The son, Chris, is always talking about the evil monkey in his closet. One episode they give the backstory of the monkey and they say something like "he wasn't always an evil monkey". The monkey is a happy, working stiff. He comes home one day sees his wife in bed with another man and gets mad.
Anyway, it relates to how I wasn't always this bitter. It was only until I saw JW's in bed with filth that I became bitter and angry. Its getting better as time goes by.
Give me some inkblot tests and I will tell you about my childhood.
Also, thanks to all the women who have responded. It very interesting and enlightening. -

Women in the Quran
Women in the Book of Mormon
My favorite:
2 Nephi 13:12 from the Book of Mormon
And my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they who lead thee cause thee to err and destroy the way of thy paths. -

ElJefe, in regards to this thread and your attitudes, your name sez it all.
That was a nickname I picked up in Spanish class in high school. Nothing to it. By the way, I am not Spanish and don't have the machismo ego. However, I was in a Spanish Cong. where women came last, if at all. I didn't like it.
eljefe, there are hundreds of threads on this board about the JW practice of suppressing and oppressing women. I'm surprised you even asked the question. BTW, I have rarely been treated so disrespectfully in my professional or ("worldly") social life, as I was subjected to on a daily basis as a JW.
Personally, I treat women as equals. Even as a JW, I tried to not demean them. I realized early on that many of the older sister knew more that the people giving talks (my grandmother being one of them) and elders.
Depending on how you read the question, you could impune a different motivation or prejudice towards women. I believe I treat women as equals. This was an honest question, I didn't realize JW women felt that way. I don't mean to offend anyone.
