I think the solution is that women should create their own god (female perhaps..), build a temple for him/her, and ban all men, fertile or not, from entering the temple.. after all, arent all gods mere human creations... Welcome to the 21st century people !!!

Dear Viviek,
For your kind information there is a temple in Trivandrum, Kerala called Attukal Baghavathy temple which is considered as "Womens' Sabarimala" Where men are not allowed. Women make Pongal (a sweet dish) and offer it to the Devi, the presiding deity there.
And no man seeks their "RIGHT" in these temples.
I request all these members to respect these traditions. If you guys are hell bent to change sometings then go and try to abolish the barbaric practice of sacrificing animals to "PLEASE" Gods in temples and on Ramzaan.
