HOW DO YOU THINK GENDER INFLUENCES RELIGION AND LITERATURE?

Gender has a huge impact on religion and literature. Firstly gender is a core aspect of religion. Men dominate every religion and women play the role as the supporter of men. In most religions God is depicted as a man, he is the creator of all things. This shadows the idea that men have the ultimate authority which is theme in religion. Men are most commonly talked about and when women are talked about they are most often have lesser value. Gender influences literature in multiple ways. One influence it has is it affected the older pieces of literature. Older literature displayed an enormous amount of masculinity. Possibly because most of it was written by men.

Another way is the fact that both women and men write literature and they experience and feel different things in life which show through their works. Another influence it has is it affected the older. Ultimately the influence that gender has on religion and literature goes far beyond what I can explain. It is seen through everyday life and obstacles faced during the evolution of mankind.
