Why did sexist cultures worship goddesses?

Okay there haven't been enough new threads in here in too long and I'm finally bored enough to start making some. D'you see what y'all've driven me to. Gawd.

It has to do with the the kabbalah.

The left side is the feminine and the right side is masculine. 

Men would have wisdom of a merciful kind, where as the feminine side would have wisdom without mercy. So technically the wisdom of women is more true in that sense. 

However as for the feminine personification of wisdom, I have a story because this hints at a story that predates history and yet is remembered in bits and pieces through various religions. 

This much older religion which survives by attaching itself to other religions is called gnosticism.

First there was God and nothing but God. He was both masculine and feminine. He created a type of reflection of himself and in doing so created another God. This God decided to create a famine God named Sophia (wisdom)

Sophia then created but did not involve the masculine. She created by herself, so she created a son who is Yaldabaoth but we know him as the Jewish God. 

Yaldabaoth did not come out as perfect as his mother sophia/wisdom. He was imperfect and jealous and thought of himself as the only God. 

He created the world in 6 days and rested on the 7th. He wanted worshippers. He created his own realm in this way and this world is known as the demiurge. 

Anyway Sophia snuck in. She is mentioned as a serpant in the Garden of Eden. Yaldabaoth created these entities that are almost robotic. We know them as angels and demons. 

They act in ways we cannot see, but their goal is the same as the goal of the machines in the Matrix, to keep you plugged in. 

Sophia will not destroy her son because she loves him, but she leaves her thumbprint and offers us a way out. We think of wisdom as feminine because of Sophia's hidden hand. 

She is wisdom and she can provide "Gnosis" . A type of awakening to the fictional world surrounding you. 

You can think women are inferior while worshipping Arachne, Artemis, Skadi, Amaterasu, Neith... and plenty of other "female" Gods.

Simply put, "women" and "Goddesses" arent same category. Thus, one can be superior, one inferior.

The Ancient Greek word sophía (σοφία) is the abstract noun of σοφός (sophós), which variously translates to "clever, skillful, intelligent, wise". The noun σοφία as "skill in handicraft and art" is Homeric and in Pindar is used to describe both Hephaestos and Athena.
Before Plato, the term for "sound judgment, intelligence, practical wisdom" and so on—such qualities as are ascribed to the Seven Sages of Greece—was phrónēsis (φρόνησις), from phrēn (φρήν, lit. 'mind'), while sophía referred to technical skill.[citation needed]
The term philosophía (φιλοσοφία, lit. 'love of wisdom') was primarily used after the time of Plato, following his teacher Socrates, though it has been said that Pythagoras was the first to call himself a philosopher.[citation needed] This understanding of philosophía permeates Plato's dialogues, especially the Republic. In that work, the leaders of the proposed utopia are to be philosopher kings: rulers who are lovers of wisdom. According to Plato in Apology, Socrates himself was dubbed "the wisest [σοφώτατος, sophṓtatos] man of Greece" by the Pythian Oracle. Socrates defends this verdict in Apology to the effect that he, at least, knows that he knows nothing. Socratic skepticism is contrasted with the approach of the sophists, who are attacked in Gorgias for relying merely on eloquence. Cicero in De Oratore later criticized Plato for his separation of wisdom from eloquence.[1] Sophía is named as one of the four cardinal virtues (in place of phrónēsis) in Plato's Protagoras.
Philo, a Hellenized Jew writing in Alexandria, attempted to harmonize Platonic philosophy and Jewish scripture. Also influenced by Stoic philosophical concepts, he used the Koine term lógos (λόγος) for the role and function of Wisdom, a concept later adapted by the author of the Gospel of John in its opening verses and applied to Jesus as the Word (Logos) of God the Father.[2]
In Gnosticism, Sophia is a feminine figure, analogous to the soul, but also simultaneously one of the emanations of the Monad. Gnostics held that she was the syzygy of Jesus (i.e. the Bride of Christ) and was the Holy Spirit of the Trinity.

 I did a few myself ,  with just a few takers.. and  I haven't a clue why that was the case....... too challenging perhaps?
