First Wave Feminism's Deterioration
#5 In a Series
While early Feminism sought decent and moral societal adjustments, they weren’t metabolized at a proper pace. They were monitored by a hidden enemy controlling a long game to ensure the isolation and destruction of women and womanhood. Structural, sensible components of it were necessary, such as legislation that ensured a widow no longer needed a grown son to co-sign on a bank loan. Changes provided momentum, hope and relief. For these positive changes to appropriately continue, it would’ve required subtracting the hidden destructive ideology.
Fortified by the likes of Marcuse and a sly divisive marketing campaign in the name of progress with Gloria Steinem as spokesperson, feminism accelerated over my lifetime into the disaster we see today. We have gone from lifting a woman up to not being able to identify a woman. We face not just a dismantling of the majestic mission of womanhood and motherhood but sheer mockery of it.
You will find an interesting depiction of conservative author and common sense policy powerhouse Phyllis Schlafly in Hulu’s series Mrs. America. Cate Blanchett masterfully bows to the Marxist cult in subtle, non-verbal portrayals of Mrs. Schlafly’s family life as a sentence served against her will. Rose Byrne bows to the cult alongside her, portraying Ms. Steinem’s isolating, immoral choice of spending time with someone else’s man as a high aspirational one.
Glossed over are the legitimate possibilities, had these two brilliant women used a superpower of feminine initiative: negotiating with love. They were both devoured by a hidden enemy that pitted them against each other, and here we still fight it today. Together, Steinem and Schlafly could have prevented the accelerated pace of the Marxist feminism we now see all over the country, but they were both in unconscious service to a decades long plan of divide by design.
The cost of the dark side of the feminist agenda has been paid in loneliness, lost fertility and emotional pain by the very women who were promised social liberation.
There may be more women in the workplace, but they are without love. That is not progress. I teach real progress: liberation from the agendas that are currently attempting to erase not only fulfillment for women, but womanhood itself.
Now it’s getting worse, and downright insane.
The pressure to conform to erasing God and family includes silently mandated “compassion” for gender ideology and its lucrative incentives. Even Germaine Greer called out the tyranny of trans among other gay women and first and second wave feminists (that attached link of GG is eight years old). Some feminists and lesbians who speak out against the trans agenda admit they wouldn’t have fought for feminism and gay rights if they knew the diabolical end. “Decolonial” feminists call women “TERFS” when they hear common sense declarations.
Simply clarifying the insanity of watching young women who have athletically trained since childhood lose in competition to a biological man has resulted in massive cruelty. JK Rowling has transformed into a hunted target for having a simple opinion.
What did this insanity require? Decades of the spiritual deterioration of women.
Erasing God and Prioritizing the State
Culture Capture pushes the false belief that fulfillment for women requires primary approval from the state, the “community” or society. Second to that is accountability to God and family, if God is acknowledged at all. Unhealed pathology and its self-help terminology, now adopted by cultural Marxists, allures vulnerable women to display private process and make themselves susceptible to the hypnosis of the culture. They (sometimes unconsciously) mock and reject God and virtue to chase and embrace a “new and improved” version of acceptance - through fame, material success, political movements and societal trends. (I certainly did.)
Steadfast inner stamina born of secure feminine energy realized through bonds of affection with family, and the unparalleled fulfillment of marriage and children, are rendered hollow and “outdated.” This is because they remain the single biggest threat to the dystopian globalist agenda. This race to “advance” has slowly boiled women into hyper-masculine versions of themselves.
Selfie videos about the satisfaction of leadership and enviable, uninterrupted time without the burden of little children are abundant on social media, but I know from experience those perks do not extinguish a burning desire to find love. Women arrive home from work alone wondering why they still haven’t attracted a man. During a lonely dinner, they can scroll through red carpet clips of film stars insisting the movie isn’t about the girl finding love, but becoming a leader.
Treating womanhood, motherhood, and femininity like it is a disability to overcome is an epidemic of delusion and false belief.
Follow God, Not Fallible Humans
Now, enjoying red carpet clips and entertainment is a part of lightening up and decompressing. I do not swear off stars and stories – I just keep in mind the covertly executed agenda machine for which many of them work. Simply be discerning. Avoid the phony and the dark, and for God’s sake, do not seek medical advice from entertainers! "Follow" your Higher Power, not other fallible people on social media, and enjoy a breezy glance at entertainment. Just avoid the ones who advance the insanity by encouraging singles to erase God and family, wax poetic about a particular “brand” of compassion, sell pharmaceuticals, and lose their way. Pay attention to the ones who stay together and have families.
I once saw David and Victoria Beckham and family in a fish restaurant in Malibu where the booths are tiny and close together. I was waiting for my husband and doing a word game on my phone. David politely looked over at me, inquisitively tilting his head, and I realized he thought I was filming him. We had a friendly exchange when I insisted I would never. They chuckled in relief, granting me temporary access to their dynamic. I immediately sensed the emotional intimacy, humor, and closeness between the couple. They seemed like a decent and grounded family. While they were leaving, Victoria and I had an exchange. Her kids were falling apart laughing instead of obeying her, and David caved and joined them in cracking up. I said, “Oh Mama, you know you’re on your own when Daddy starts laughing with the kids.” She appreciated the backup and said, “Sometimes I just look up and think, how do I have so many kids?”
Simple Things
Culture Capture causes women to trade in the deep, ageless, steadfast instincts that render her the anchor to her husband’s sails in a family. It discards grounding dedication to simple things for impulsive, assertive action towards approval from a society plagued by collectivism. This is also known as “leaning in” or worse, “having it all”. Choices endorsed by “officialdom” narratives are usually fully documented on social media for all to see. Resist this by remaining in touch with God and the oldest dreams in your heart.
In her book Domestic Extremist, Peachy Keenan cites a survey in which “high femininity females were more likely to describe themselves as able to take risks, manage uncertainty and self-regulate, which may help to explain lower rates of depression compared to other women.” Professor Nancy Pearcey also wrote about erasing God and femininity in her book The Toxic War on Masculinity. In it, she included an experiment from anthropologist Elizabeth Brusco. A feminist trained in Marxist thought, Brusco expected to reject Columbian evangelicalism but instead said “(it) can be seen as a “strategic” women’s movement…because it serves to reform gender roles in a way that enhances female status.”
Holy activism today is knowing God, getting married, growing a garden, delivering your babies at home and educating your children without a medical cartel disrupting their perfect immune systems - just to attend school.
The truly liberated woman may enter the workplace from home or in a professional venue, wise to the reality that a pointy glass achievement award will not visit her when she is old. Career goals must be framed within the context of her biggest, most fulfilling, and most important job as the spiritual pulse of her happy home.1
This is from a series on “Culture Capture” to provide background my book.
