Thoughts on the "other sex"

It has occurred to me that the etymology of the ‘other sex’ is always as a part or lesser simulacra of Adam. Adam is the ideal of which the other falls short; after all, Adam is one bite short of God. Whatever such word is used to identify the ‘other sex’ serves largely to delineate it from the status quo of humanity or consciousness or however else you will define this self-awareness. More than delineate it from the status quo, it serves to make it subservient. The ‘other sex’ has no existence on its own as it is etymologically dependent on Adam. As our ability to think is limited by our language, it seems that it is time for a new word to signify this ‘other sex’ as a part of the whole with Adam.
