Differences Between Men & Women: Conclusion

Men and women are made different in order to complement
each other, not to offend each other. We are attracted by the differences
between us, and yet we don’t understand the differences. Singing in harmony is
harder to do than singing in unison, but it is beautiful. What often happens is
spouses give up and try to sing in unison—usually by the man making the woman
bend to him. A woman wants a sexual relationship where her partner is tender
and gentle. The man is looking for a sexual partner who is as instantaneously
responsive as he is. This is where homosexual relationships come from; they
have abandoned all attempts at successful harmony.

God made us different because He wants us to be complementary,
not identical. When we find a difference, instead of griping about it, say, “I
am the complement to that difference.” God made these differences, and He wants
them to be there. He wants that harmony. He is in the business of enabling real
men and real women to work together and live together. My inability to
sing in harmony is not a reflection on Him; it’s a reflection on me. We
husbands and wives need to get to work at complementing each other by being
different, not by being the same. Our goal is not unity in conformity; it is
unity in harmony.
