I've read several books on feminism, all authored by avowed feminists, and a common denominator in literally all of them is anger and discontentment as an expression of power. As feminist author Susi Kaplow explains, "It is no accident . . . that the emotion that accompanies the first steps toward liberation is, for most women, anger. Whatever sense of self-worth you have been able to emerge with after twenty or thirty years of having your mind messed with, gives you the vague feeling that your situation is not what it should be [hence the discontentment] and sends you looking tentatively at the world around you for explanations. Realizations are, at first, haunting, and then begin to hit you like a relentless sledge hammer, driving the anger deeper and deeper into your consciousness with every blow."

It is on the basis of this passage, and others I've come across in my readings about feminism, that I would proffer the thesis that feminism is both psychological and ideological, but that it is psychological before it is ideological, which explains, in my opinion, the behavior (psychological) of feminists as expressions of what they profess to believe (ideological).
Every husband with young children.
Every man planning kids with his wife.
Every man who’s dating.
Ask your wife or girlfriend, right now, if she supports Lindsay Clancy.
If the answer is yes:
Fathers, grab your children and run as far from her as you can.
Men, break up with her on the spot.
This is a warning from a mother who lived through postpartum depression, these women are INSANE and dangerous!
Men are now breaking up with girlfriends who support Lindsay Clancy, and honestly, good for them.
A Lindsay Clancy defender is not who you want as the mother of your own future children.
When you are tempted to look at something sinful, remember that God knows what you see.
He is not a distant observer. He is a holy King who is grieved by our sin.
Delight in the Lord so that your desire for him rules over your flesh's desire for sin.
Scrolling through social media late at night often feeds temptation and steals your peace. If an app makes it hard to guard your heart, it is time to delete it. Protecting your mind is worth far more than staying updated online.
@TrevorSheatz The relationship with Jesus Christ is what matters the most. It doesn’t matter if you go to church or not that’s what the religious people say. You have to go to church to be close to God.. so I have to disagree with you.
I want a apology from Black parents who were parents in the 70s,80s and 90s we of Gen X should get a apology looking at these kids now. What do you say. #GenX#babyboomers#silentgeneration
Fellow introverts, it’s my birthday today.
I guess this is the one day I can ask for something.
I’ve been trying hard to grow this page for 6 years and we still haven’t even touched 50k.
Just need a little push from you all.
RT this if any of my posts ever felt relatable, and help me connect with more introverts.
Thank You!
