I. “Male and Female He Created Them . . .”
2335
Each of the two sexes is an image of the power and tenderness of God, with
equal dignity though in a different way. the union of man and woman in marriage
is a way of imitating in the flesh the Creator’s generosity and fecundity:
“Therefore a man leaves his father and his mother and cleaves to his wife,
and they become one flesh.”120 All human generations proceed from
this union.121
