Hearing one person tell you how much you should eat, when you should sleep, and when you should stay off your feet is bad enough. Hearing it from everyone starts to get insulting. But more importantly, if my child was ever in need once it was born? Probably wouldn't be able to find anyone to help. And no one was so willing to give me advice before I had a fetus in my belly. I started to feel like, unfortunately, the fetus is what matters and I'm only the vehicle.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1630556584547798739.post-60744035731485774292009-02-02T11:08:00.000-05:002009-02-02T11:08:00.000-05:00That AlterNet article about the patriarchy movemen...That AlterNet article about the patriarchy movement is really disturbing. Submission to men is like Christ's submission to God? So women are lesser, sinners, and men by comparison all-powerful, all-knowing?<BR/><BR/>And feminism is women's selfish worship of self? Asking for personal rights are against God? The best thing for women is to gratefully follow hard-and-fast, non-debatable rules supposedly from God? You think we on earth really know what God wants?<BR/><BR/>Blind, and too weak to make their own decisions.Heather Floydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15947855280233393708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1630556584547798739.post-52381044074798281432009-02-01T21:50:00.000-05:002009-02-01T21:50:00.000-05:00I read your post once in a while and particularly ...I read your post once in a while and particularly liked this week's. I guess because I'm a teacher, the first little story about the boy with braids kinda of hit home. Some of the ironies about life we deal with everyday in the teaching world.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
