Ladies Against Feminism

I have found a wonderful website!
Ladies Against Feminism
This site totally rings true with me!
10 years ago when I was graduating from HS and going off to college, I had a very small desire to have a family, and a very LARGE desire to have a great career. The Christian university did little to squelch the desire for career and little to encourage the desire for family.
But upon getting engaged, graduating from college and being offered "the opportunity of a lifetime" (so called by the boss offering it to me) all I could think of was a friend of my mother who had gotten the "opportunity of a lifetime" while I was in high school. She moved 2 states away from her husband and 3 children, bought a house and they were supposed to follow when the house back home sold. They never moved out and she never moved back and a family was divided because the wife was so concerned about advancing her career. Perhaps an extreme example, but it stuck in my head and when offered that job it was all I could do to shout NO WAY! I was going to marry the love of my life and my career could wait. Somehow I knew basing our lives around my job was not how God would want it to be.
Praise the Lord, He has done many a miracle in my life to bring me to the point I am at now where I can say I love that web site. It's all about going back to the Biblical roles of men and women. Encouraging girls to be - ahhh! Homemakers! Dare we even speak of it! And encouraging men to be yes, Leaders of their homes! Radical for even those in the church.
I love being radical.
I love that the Lord calls us to be different for His sake. I love Titus 2. I also love my husband and my children and desire to serve them and see them grow in their love for the Lord.
I'm just totally on a rush after reading a great book (which I cannot mention, because it's actually a christmas gift...so commentary will come after christmas) and then finding all the articles on this website.

When I first had my dear daughter I was excited but so concerned - I did not want her to grow up like I did, an emotional wanderer and leaning toward feminist ideals. I wanted her to be a viruous woman who could fight the culture and grow up loving the Lord. I had no idea where to turn and now I'm finding so many resources that say exactly what I was looking for. I'm just so thankful and I look forward to teaching my little ones these things.
So anyways...check it out.
You'll love it or hate it.

btw - I'm posting a new lillypie ticker...for anyone who may not know yet :o)
