To clarify my last post:
women/girls nowadays are somewhat insecure about their role/position in Judaism, either because of bad experiences or because of the way things were taught or not taught or because of a girl’s inherent nature to be more passive/less arrogant.
When someone is starting off feeling that way, they will read things differently. I know that because I used to be that way.
If someone is coming from the starting point that it is obvious that women are people and should be shown respect and not put down, etc. they understand things (and expect to be understood) differently.
I think that is what is going on here. I have also seen this from other posts of Joseph’s where I think some misunderstood his intent.
