Quoting Quiverfull: Women Always Weaker?

Quoting Quiverfull: Women Always Weaker? March 1, 2017

quotingquiverfullby members of Lori Alexander’s Facebook page as quoted on The Transformed Wife – Why Do Women Despise Being the Weaker Vessel?

Editor’s note: This is a sad pile of rationalizations for being stay at home moms. Notice not one of them says that they do it because it’s what they want to do, or that it makes them happy. Feminism is not so that every women is forced to work outside of the home, it is so that every woman has the option to do that which makes her feel fulfilled in her life. Quiverfull and Lori want to see everyone stripped of any options.

by Sarah – β€œI think women today are so brainwashed. But if they were to push aside the thoughts they are fed, you naturally just fall into your roles…at least it worked that way for me.”

by Cassie – β€œIn the eyes of society the term weaker indicates that women are not as good as, or as important as men and that term to them also sounds like men can be allowed to dominate over women. It comes back to control, wanting to be better than and do without men. If we look at women as weaker than men then women by large can not do everything that men can. That is what society fights against. They do not like being told they should not or can not do something.”

by Audra – β€œPride.”

by Tracy – β€œSimply put, they have been taught by feminist to take offense of any term that does not indicate they are totally equal in all ways or better then men. Which is based on feelings, which makes us a weaker vessel, which confirms we are.”

by Jessica – β€œIt was actually a relief to me when I learned this. I was raised with mindset of β€˜you shouldn’t need to depend on a man to take care of you.’ It always felt unnatural to me, as if I just didn’t have what it takes to be successful or follow through in the career world.”
