We have re-written the scriptures to show the modern understanding beyond gender and many of the other limitations of ancient people. If you go into any bookstore today rarely will you see a modern spiritual book with these biases. YOU just do not see them as scriptures yet. Wait a few hundred years and that might change.
Nothing changes over night except our minds. Quit thinking of those ancient books as holy texts and “poof” they are gone. Change your ways of thinking about the recent “holy texts” and “poof” they are rewritten to show the non-biased perspective.
You have all the power. Change starts with you and moves outwards.
