A (little) feminist under construction!

So, it is our story time before bed. This time the girl has grabbed "Bible stories for kids" from the library. After a few chapters from Old Testament, she asked me why Jesus stories are missing in the Bible? So we moved onto The New Testament. The chapter we read, described how Jesus selected the disciples.

After I read all the disciples' name, Maria asked me a question which have never occured to me. She asked,

     "Amma, why Jesus did not select any girl disciple?"

What she meant is why none of Jesus' disciples are women? Valid question, with no answer from my side.

But honey, I'm so glad that you asked this question.
