Some people, who are deeply involved in an organized, traditional religion, find it very difficult to accept that their way isn't the only way. And that their sacred text isn't the only text and it must be taken literally.

Many women hear the word feminine and feel like it's a noose around their neck. Don't hold me to a mode of behavior because I'm a woman and you think this is how a woman should act, kind of thing.
