These stories place themselves on par with divinely revealed texts by emulating certain themes found there.

While the vrat kathas do seem to "emulate" the male models, they also posit superiority of both the woman as a ritualist and the vrat as a ritual. Thus, the vrat kathas posit the superiority of vrat rituals, vrat stories, and vrat performers as superior to the "elite" male forms they are ostensibly emulating.
