she likes her life owned now
I see a ton of blogs dedicated to traditional femininity, and there’s a solid network of women who seem dedicated to helping each other live in a traditionally feminine way. It seems that there isn’t a counterpoint focus among men on exactly what a traditionally masculine life is (if there is and I’m not seeing it, I’m happy to be proven wrong), and I’ve noticed a decent number of men who claim to value traditional femininity, and who claim to want to have a spouse like that, but who are not proving themselves worthy of it. So, gents:
If you like it when she is well and traditionally and femininely dressed, and takes pride in her appearance, stop wearing ratty old jeans, t-shirts, and sneakers. Put on a collared shirt, take some pride in your own appearance as well.
If you wish for a spouse who is chaste, be chaste yourself. I love all these fashy blogs banging the drum of “tradition” but yet have photos of scantily clad women (some of whom are standing, stereotypically, in wheat fields) in them. Stop viewing pornography, and be chaste of heart and mind.
If you want a woman who lives her faith, then you need to live yours as well. Some of my supposedly traditionalist younger brethren complain that finding a good Catholic woman is hard, but half the Latin Mass chapels I step in, the single women well outnumber the single men. Seems to me like if they were living their faith and going to Mass, they would have found the devout potential spouses they were looking for.
Guys, when is the last time you put the video game controller down and read something; especially something truly intellectual?
Just as traditional femininity is a positive and enriches the family, we need to cultivate strong traditional masculinity. We need to be good fathers and husbands. We need to be involved in our communities and in our Parishes. We need to be strong protectors and providers. Find the ways in which modernity and the flaws of our generation have already invaded your life, the way you think and the way you act, and root them out and excise them. Live what you believe.
It’s okay to dream of being a wife, mother, and homemaker.✨
Traditional values aren’t only about marriage but also about family and community.
We must all do our best to make our society better. Even if our home is our priority, our neighbours and family (in a larger manner) are also to be taken care of.
Of course, this starts with raising our children to be good men and women.
Giving them good values, good manner and teaching them a righteous conduct is what will make our families better, our neighborhood better… and ultimately make our world a better place.
It all starts at home.
Community is crucial. This often means rebuilding community, sometimes almost from scratch. Men are needed to teach skills and as role models, since many fathers have not been prepared to serve that way and someone else needs to fill the gap. Women have all sorts of roles in the community and this again shows how important it is to free women from the paid workforce so they have time to contribute locally, as they once did.
Really happy I made the decision to resist my previous attitudes and accept being submissive and docile to my man and letting him lead me and guide me to be how he deserves. That has made my life much happier and less stressful.
Golden Rules for the Wife Part 1
(comment if you want more of my thoughts)
1. The man provides. He earns the money and secures the household.
2. The woman serves at home. Her duty is to cook, clean, and raise the children.
3. Marriage is destiny. A respectable woman marries; her worth depends on it.
4. Motherhood defines womanhood. A woman is complete only when she has children.
5. The husband rules. His word is final in financial, social, and legal matters.
6. Work belongs to men. A woman who pursues a career abandons her true role as wife and mother.
7. Sex belongs to men. Female desire is irrelevant; sex exists to satisfy men and produce children.
8. Beauty is a woman’s currency. She must remain attractive to win and keep a man.
9. A good wife obeys. She is quiet, supportive, and compliant to her husband’s will.
10. Roles do not mix. Men belong to the public world; women belong to the private home.
