I used to call myself a feminist back in the day. I believed the Women’s Movement of the 70s was about helping women to achieve equality in pay, and treatment in the courts, etc.
Now in retrospect, the women’s movement was promoted by those who feed the evil. I say that because of the Father’s movement which was promoted by those same evil ones to “take women down a notch”.
It was to pit women and men against one another instead of working together, with mutual respect and seeing each other as equals before God, the Creator.
It was to turn women into men. It degraded women who were nurturers and wanted to stay home with their children. Think about all the women who became “professionals” leaving their children in daycare that was off-premises so they couldn’t keep and eye on them or have lunch with them. Instead, we had horror stories of caregivers who pitted children against one another and laughed as they punched each other. We have horror stories of caregivers tormenting children and molesting them, with the threat of death, killing rabbits in front of them to send the message.
The feminist movement was about destroying women’s innate nurturing sense and spiritual sense, as the evil ones were aiming to do. Children were taken away from their Moms with mothers being told their role in the home meant they were “lazy” and not contributing to society, so only women who worked outside the home were “valued”.
Hillary Clinton once mocked women by saying she wasn’t going to stay home and bake cookies. She promoted “pantsuit nation” as a nod to little girls in my time (boomers) being forced to wear dresses. I *still* had that mindset when I was at Standing Rock and saw the Native women in dresses and skirts, and I shook my head thinking they were “so repressed.” Ha. I was the one who needed to rethink why I had such disgust for women wearing skirts.
The Native women were nurturing, but far from weak. They were strong. They knew who they were and they were strong spiritually. They saw nurturing as a strength, not a weakness. This is in direct contrast to the brainwashing of the women’s movement which bought into the male idea of nurturing = weakness.
They believe that men get their spirituality through the women. Blew me away when I first heard that. But when I thought about how drastically things have changed since massive amounts of kids being raised in daycare, away from their mothers, I thought, yeah, they are better people when at home with their mothers. And even more so when on family farms with both parents around.
As one of them said, “First the children will stand up. Then the women will stand up. Finally, our men will stand up.” For anyone having issue with this, I would caution that Jesus has shown himself to the Native people, as well. The massacre of Wounded Knee was a direct result of the song and dance that Jesus taught Wovoka, of the Paiutes to rid the world of evil. Instead, the Natives were using it to rid the world of white people. Jesus would not allow this, so their efforts failed. They had been told if they did as Jesus asked, their shirts would be able to stop bullets. Since they disobeyed, the shirts did not protect them.
But–here’s the thing– when Russell Means and the rest were at Wounded Knee in 1973, reclaiming their land and heritage, they were in prayer in a teepee (tipi). They were being fired upon by federal agents. They were so immersed in prayer that they did not hear the gunfire. After they finished praying, they went outside, and discovered casings all over the ground. Russell looked at the tipi, and behold, their were bullets LODGED IN THE TIPI FABRIC!! When they had prayed in a good way, Jesus came to their aid!
Here’s the video of Standing Rock:
All of the so-called gains women have made– never reaching equal pay for comparable work, sexual harassment, degrading us to sexual objects–this has never went away and in my estimation, has only gotten worse. I was sexually harassed in almost every job I had.
So we lost any “gains” we made.
The only thing we have left is the right to vote and own property….but I think that is going away, in a sneaky and quiet way.
I say that because of my difficulty buying a small apartment building and trying to buy a laundromat which would be passive income so that I could stay home with my kids, but still have income coming in. I was turned down for a loan even though I had 20% down and a good credit rating at the time. I would have been able to take care of myself in old age and not lose my house.
I know that the evil ones have targeted intelligent, single women. This has been planned a long, long time.
And they were targeting men, as well, but accusing feminists of degrading men and emasculating them. That is another evil tactic –to throw blame onto someone else while the evil ones go about their work. Women just wanted to be treated equally. They wanted to be paid a fair wage instead of crumbs.
Men were the first to leave family farms and head to professional work in the cities. So they effectively removed men from the home first.
Native women will tell you that when the Europeans came and forced them to stay in one spot instead of being nomadic, as they followed the game and food wherever it was, their men lost their sense of purpose. Men were valued for their hunting skills and as warriors. They didn’t have to work in an office, away from nature, to provide for their family. And the ones who were good at hunting shared their bounty with elderly and those that didn’t have enough to eat. The warriors were not valued for being violent, indeed, you might be shocked to find they were nurturing, as well, but fierce when they needed to be. Some tribes would have a ceremony for the warriors when they returned from a battle, where they rid themselves of their clothing (burned) and sat in a sweat lodge (prayed intensely with sweating to hot rocks to rid oneself of the negative of war.)
With that all said, I have a prayer to share for the men.
It’s a Catholic prayer, and Catholics are taking a beating right now saying they are not Christian. Well, I hope this prayer will not only benefit the men, but will show folks that they are indeed Christian. As you know, I became Catholic when I married my husband, and left the Church after bullying during the divorce. But it was the Catholics who came to my aid when I came back to town after being gone 15 years. Things have changed in the Church, both good and bad. A LOT of people who were regular goers are either dead or no longer go to Church, even though they are still faithful.
The Church has been taken over by the Hispanics infiltrating my small hometown. I’m pretty sure they are the ones who flattened my tires, twice. It’s interesting to note that the same tire they said was in bad shape is, at this moment, still inflated, three months after the last time of being flattened by I think was an ice pick.
