Purity and Dualism

From Mary Malone's The Denial Of Woman:

Ever since the rise of Buddhism and Zoroastrianism two and a half thousand years ago, Authority has been based on the Denial of Woman.
These religions advocated a withdrawal from the 'world'. They were the beginnings of the heresy of Dualism, the idea that thee 'good' spiritual world opposes the 'bad' material world. 'Good' is redefined as obedience to Authority and men withdrawing from their obligations to serve women.
Once upon a time, virtue was simply that which was life affirmative, both for the individual and the group. But in an era of consolidation of military bureaucratic complexes throughout the world, a time when the family and the village, the natural sources of authority, have become the enemy of centralized Authority, the ethics of life affirmation are condemned as dangerous for the newly subjected people.
New religions which exalt a priestly caste were created. The priestly caste must be set above the people. The natural yearning for love and life must be condemned as 'evil'
Dualism and the religions of death promote the idea that the world of the spirit is good, and our material world is evil.
Could anything be more sick than to condemn life as 'evil'?
The hierarchy, the priestly caste, separated themselves from the people by their devotion to the ideology of death. Whether they be Buddhas or Brahmins, or Catholic priests or Cathar 'Perfects', virtue came to mean separation from 'the world'.
In essence virtue came to mean the separation of man from woman.
The Patriarchs of the Military Bureaucratic Complexes saw Woman as temptation, flesh, birth, life - and all this was regarded as dirty.
Their Patriarchal power rested on the subjection of woman, for it is man's natural role to serve Woman. Woman is the essential half of humanity, Man, only the support service.
So Woman needed to be mocked, ridiculed, belittled, diminished in her own eyes, and most of all, to keep the men from their natural role as women's servants, damned as unclean.
Woman was condemned by the Dualists. She was dirty by nature. Only perpetual virginity could save her. Only by denying Woman's sacred nature as the priestess of the mysteries of life, was she acceptable in the eyes of the Patriarchs.
By branding her unclean, Woman's greatness was turned against her. 
Hence the mockery of the Virgin Mary, the so called Theotokos, whose chief characteristic is her genital mutilation, when we all know the true woman lives on in the Magdalene, neither virgin nor whore, simply Woman.
