No. Jainism is not male-oriented. It teaches that every soul is capable of spiritual progress and liberation, regardless of gender.

• Both men and women can practice the path seriously (as monks, nuns, or householders) and can strive for Moksha.
• In the Jain tradition, there are differences between Digambaras and Svetambaras about some details:

- Svetambaras recognize several female Tirthankaras (e.g., Mallinath) and affirm that women can attain the highest spiritual goals. - Digambaras traditionally emphasize male Tirthankaras, though women can pursue spiritual liberation as devout practitioners and ascetics, and many Jain sources affirm the equal potential of women to progress on the path.

• The core teaching remains that liberation depends on right faith, right knowledge, and right conduct, not on gender.

If you’d like, I can share more about how gender is treated in specific Jain texts or traditions.
