Dear member,
You are not wrong and neither is the VisishtAdvaitam siddhAntam.
Modern medical science (ask any modern obstetrician & gynaecologist)
confirms that every foetus in the human womb is first conceived as a
female only. Clinical observation of human embryo in the first 4-6
weeks after conception has proved beyond doubt that foetal genitalia
typically conforms in all cases to the female anatomical and
physiological structure. In other words, all human foetus is
conceived first as female only. It is only after a few weeks of
conception that hormonal processes occur (testesterone in the case of
male embryos and estrogen in the case of female embryos) and it is
then that the foetus begins actually to transform into either a fully
developed male or female. Human gender is determined in the womb
first through hormonal change and only later through genetic or
chromosomal manifestation (i.e through the preponderance of the "x"
or "y" chromosomes).
Make no mistake about it -- we were all once female ('sthri') before
we became male('purusha'). If only this medical fact were made known
more widely amongst the men of the world, they would have, I should
think, far more respect for the opposite sex than they presently have.
As for the VisishtAdvaita siddhAntam, it certainly knows what it is
talking about when it says that we are all 'sthree-s' and there is
only one 'purusha' -- the Supreme One, the "parama-purushan".
