Woman’s humanity
July 2
“The woman’s humanity is realized in the specific ways of a woman. She is a complete human being no less than the man, but according to her own nature. Her sex is not a mere accidental condition that could be abstracted. Her sex, on the contrary, is a reality that fundamentally defines her being and action and corresponds to the specific design of the Creator. Her physical and psychological qualities proclaim clearly what it truly means to be woman.”
-Jutta Burggraf
