At the Register: We Need the Courage to Christianize Feminism

And no, I don’t mean offering yoga classes at the Newman Center.

You know, when Catholic women tell me, “Oh please, we don’t need a theology of women, ” they really mean, “I always wanted to be a stay-at-home mom, and now I am one” or “I am temperamentally suited to homeschool” or “I really enjoy cooking and sewing” or “I have no desire or need to work outside the home.”  There are many, many women who want desperately to follow God as women, but who can’t or don’t follow these paths.  Women should be able to ask for more guidance from the Church without being branded as ball busting feminazis.
