Complementarians and egalitarians not only can embrace one another as brothers and sisters in Christ who share the gospel, but we should live out the gospel in the way we treat each other. Sadly, this does not always happen. Too often, each side assumes the worst of the other or associates everyone who holds a particular view with its worst representations. Complementarians conceive of egalitarians as compromising liberals, and egalitarians regard complementarians as sexists who oppress women.
