If women don't find security and acceptance in the church they will find it elsewhere. Its in our nature.

Salvation should lead to a sense of security, in God of course. God's love should lead to a feeling of acceptance. Add fellowship with other women and bingo, you have a combo that appeals to women.

Women often remain in an abusive relationship with a man because of a false sense of security. Where will I go? What will I do? Etc. all come to mind if someone suggests she leave the jerk.

Likewise, women will often remain in a church that may not be ideal due to a sense of security whether it be false or otherwise. Men on the other hand will bail out or will unhappily remain for the sake of their spouse. Ask me how I know...on second thought, don't ask.
