Jesus quantified the value of humans. By dying for us He valued us as equal to Himself. Both men and women... Equal value.I don't think that the value of humans should be quantified.

When Jesus chose Mary of Magdalene as witness for His resurrection, it remains the same, in the past, present and future, it is what it is. When the anonymous writers of canonized gospel wrote the event of Jesus resurrection consistently, it remains the same, nothing to be added and revised, it is what it is.
The only thing that changed is human acceptance for Mary of Magdalene blessing role.
From Mary of Magdalene we can learn, gender equality is not related with theologian concept. Gender equality is not problem of God. Gender equality is purely problem of human.

It doesn't matter what I believe. You nor most "men" here want to know the truth. They're to busy trying to interpret the Word how they want it to be for their own prideful and selfish purposes. I am a woman... you don't want to hear anything from me. You would automatically discount it.
Oh but the Bible does quantify the value of humans. God places a value on both male and female so highly, He traded the blood of His own Son to redeem them....both

But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.I don't think that the value of humans should be quantified.

Rather, that's the spiritual pecking order.That's quality not quantity...

together have dominion over the earth (Gen 1:26–27).
If by Gender equality you mean that men and women have equal access to God and both can pray directly to the Father, then I agree.
If you mean women can serve as Pastors or do not have to submit to their husbands as is oft described in Scriptures, then I disagree. It is not a question of equality, but divine order and the fact Eves fall was because she was beguiled. This is what god says on the matter.
In our fallen state having the woman who expresses more the emotional side of God under submission to a loving husband is an issue of protection with God.
But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.Genesis presents gender equality, rather than male leadership, as humanity’s created state.1 It teaches that man and woman are created equally in the image of God and together have dominion over the earth (Gen 1:26–27). Their equality is not limited to spiritual standing before God, but applies to their dominion over the earth. God blessed man and woman and charged them both in verse 28: “Be fruitful and multiply, fill the earth and subdue it; and have dominion over . . . every living thing that moves upon the earth.”
Male hierarchy over women is not in God’s original design. The first mention of male rule is in Gen 3:16, which identifies it as a direct result of the fall: “He will rule over you.” Even prominent male hierarchizes agree that this “is not a prescription of what should be.”9 Like every other result of the fall, it is a negative change. To make this compatible with the theory of male headship in creation, hierarchizes say Gen 3:16 is about the introduction of unloving rule, not male rule over women in general.10 The text, however, does not say that only unloving male rule is a result of the fall; it says that male rule itself is a result of the fall. Genesis 3:16 uses by far the most common word for “rule,” not a word that naturally brings to mind bad rule. The word is even used for God’s rule, which is certainly not bad rule!
Sorta...Rather rather, that's the pecking order as we are in this flesh...
Spiritually we are one.
John 17:21

I agree. Eve was framed.Yes. Adam should have given Eve the exact words of God (not to eat the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, lest you die). But we can see the danger of adding to God's Word, because Eve was led to believe that one would die if they even touched the tree. That wasn't true. And satan knew she had been misled and used that to deceive her. She touched the fruit ....and she didn't die. Nothing happened. This sparked doubt, I'm sure. So ... she took the fruit and ate it.
"Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven." Matt 6:10Galatians 3:27-29
for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.
As the scripture says we are all one in Christ Jesus, all equal heirs.
Mutual submission among believers, and between husbands and wives, is a concept that sits uneasily with some Christians. Yet it is a concept plainly stated in the New Testament and in a few other early Christian writings.
Most Christians are aware that in Ephesians 5:21 Paul says submitting to one another is an outworking of being filled by the Holy Spirit (Eph. 5:18ff) and is an expression of reverence for Jesus Christ:
“submitting to one another in the fear of Christ” (Eph. 5:21).
But Ephesians 5:21 isn’t the only New Testament verse that encourages mutual submission among Jesus’ followers. 1 Peter 5:5 is another.
Noooo, women have never been the weaker vessel. We give birth. We nurse that precious God given life from our own bodies.Women may be the weaker vessel but mentally and otherwise, women are so much stronger than men. It is scientifically proven that women have a much higher pain tolerance. Men are babies when it comes to pain.
