The concept of a "spiritual gender gap" challenges us to confront deep-seated societal and psychological dynamics that shape how men and women relate to spirituality.

This essay explores the premise of the spiritual gender gap, its origins, and the possible ramifications for relationships, personal growth, and societal norms.
