Poor men.
According to Lori Anderson, the blogger whose deeply problematic handwritten flowchart on whether mothers should return to the workforce or not went viral late last year, men just can’t catch a break.
Why? Because they can’t find godly women to marry, as too many of us have been raised with a “feminist mindset” instead of being taught “biblical womanhood”.
Translation: men don’t want to marry women who have had sex.
This is, in Lori’s view, why so many of them choose not to marry at all.
The mother-of-four shared a controversial new post this week on her very opinionated blog The Transformed Wife, in which she aims to advise people on marriage, raising children and homemaking.
All with deeply religious undertones, in case you haven’t picked that up.
Within the post, she said the reason men no longer want to get married is because women are not “chaste” and have no “virtue”.
It’s all very Handmaid’s Tale.
“I have men write me and ask where they can find godly women,” she wrote.
“I don’t have an easy answer because even in most churches, the young women aren’t being taught biblical womanhood. They aren’t being taught to have meek and quiet spirits, to be shamefaced, modest, and chaste.”
Um.
She continued: “There are few older women teaching the young women biblical womanhood. Many young women don’t want to hear it because it clashes so deeply with their feminists mindset that they’ve been raised with.”
